I thought I could be a Marxist until saw real bureaucracy in action. That put me off. I think that certain elements of socialism are great, but many aren't. Do you really think we'd have seatbelts or 40 hour workweeks and paid health if it was just up to the free market? Sorry, bub, but that all came from your pinko friends. I might get it because my skills are in demand, but I doubt many others would.

It took industry 10 years to put a 3rd light on their pickups and vans, even though experiments showed it drops accidents dramatically. But it also lowers insurance work, a profit center. Funny how that works.
