OT: Socialism

I couldn't care less what the French, German, and Canadians think about capitalism.

Socialists care about the poor: they try to help them, heal them, feed them, teach them. Capitalists don't give a damn for anything except profits.

Yup. Liberals (like you) think that what matters is your motive, regardless of outcome.

Conservatives hate government so much that they cannot run an honest, efficient government.

Yup again! 'Course, neither can your Socialists. They've proved that over and over again.

Until capitalism and conservatism can appeal to the masses of the people, socialism will continue to grow and take over more and more governments. While socialism can make the welfare of the people as a whole consistent with economic efficiency and growth, it will flourish.

LOL! Son, you've been drinking too much of your own whisky!

Socialism couldn't flourish if you watered it every day with a muli-billion dollar subsidy. It don't know how to flourish. You just proved it yourself. It's too concerned with other things, and not concerned with getting business done. You complain that all capitalists think about are their own profits. That's what it takes! If you had ever bothered to look at successful small businesses, you'd see that they require an intense concentration on winning. It's that profit motive (that you think is so evil) that creates wealth. And that's why you haven't got a chance in the world of succeeding.
