America isn't even starting to show any signs of socialism. There are government payments to companies that might be considered socialism if it weren't simply a question of the countries' financial survival.
In a perfect world, I'd let all these companies like AIG fall, but it's not just the directors who suffer (in fact, they would hardly suffer at all) it's the 8 hour, 5 day crew that pay the price, if you don't bail them out, then you simply end up adding thousands of unemployed people to an already wildly unstable economy. That problem would have forced some level of socialism in order to support these unemployed people. In truth, the bailout was the least damaging route.
But I certainly wouldn't worry about the US adopting socialism any time soon, it's just not the nature of its people, despite what the Republicans believe, Obama is no more an 'anti-American' than Bush was, they just use different approaches to problems, you may not agree with them, but that doesn't mean that anyone is trying to 'destroy the US'.
