The people that came to the US did not come to escape from religion, they came to practice religion, that of their own choice. We have religious freedom, not freedom from religion.
The founding fathers were also an intollerant bunch. I have never proposed any specific treatment for gays. If they leave me alone, I leave them alone. They would be well advised to keep thier activity very quiet and private, otherwise a backlash will develop from the majority of the somewhat religious people in this country that think such activity is sinful and also non religous that think it is repulsive.
There are thousands of small villages, towns across the USA that were founded on socialist principles. Names like Friendship are the first clue. Then a little reading about the history of the town and you will find why they were founded. Read history of the Pilgrims, Quakers, Amish, and hundreds of other people going for new lives in some kind of utopia. All have failed in their social goals.
As to the US, we do not have 20 percent unemployment like France. Germany started 2 world wars because of socialism.
