WHY KANT COULDN'T, AND STILL CAN'T Good post by "Dr Sanity" today. Excerpt: "Over the last hundred years, these apologists for socialism and communism have had to face disappointment after disappointment as they watched the unraveling of every holy prophecy and had to deal with multiple socialist nightmares in the real world; instead of the fantasy dreamworld they imagined. In both theory and practice, socialism's battle for supremacy with capitalism had been decisively lost. In every empirical test in the real world, capitalism worked better than socialism and once and for all completely debunked all the original Marxist claims about socialism's supposed superiority. --Instead of exploiting people, capitalism has empowered them, while socialism made them poor, miserable, and oppressed. --Instead of increasing poverty, capitalism has mostly eliminated it. The rich get richer indeed; but the poor get richer, too. Under socialism's yoke, everyone became poorer except the corrupt. --Instead of being more humane and peaceful, socialism has almost always deteriorated into dictatorship and oppression; and then became aggressive and violent toward other countries" billmillan.blogspot.com
