Altruism according to wikipedia is:
"Altruism is selfless concern for the welfare of others."
Selfless, meaning one does not value his interests above others.

Socialism is slavery. If one cannot own what he works for then it is slavery. I don't care where it is going. Forcing one to give up property rights for your illogical beliefs is contradictory to the idea that another's interests should go before theirs.
