Goldwater viewed federal projects like roads and other infrastructure as socialism.

The Marlboro Man said Barry Goldwater calls this "creeping socialsim" and the camera pulls back to a long view of the background which is a huge federal dam, and the MM says, "until it creeps into Arizona."

Goldwater was dung, was shite then and was shite until the day he took his dirt nap.
