first of all, i've already pointed out one error. it's obviously not "right". i understand much of it is meant to be a joke, and i called it "almost funny", like it made me think "ha... ha..." but no lol... anyway
second: i most certainly do not support socialism, like communism i think it's a great idea that will never work. socialized medicine is even worse.

Thats just because it is pro capitalist, and you believe in socialist ideas.

Nah, not "wrong," just a not-all-that-funny, rather old joke.
