PHFFFFZZZZT

An extremist like you would think that any moderate is on the side of Karl Marx and Mao Tse Tung. Like anything in life there's always balance. Like the Ying and the Yang into Taoist... A balance of strong and soft. Extreme Laissez Faire Capitalism screws the little guy... All wealth trickles UP to the corporate owner class. For instance Walmart goes into a small town and sucks the entreprenurial blood out of small buisiness. They end up being one of the few employers and have a strong hold over their employees, who they poorly pay offer virtually no benefits to. A good strong union would force them to listen to their employees.

A true Marxist would say there's no room for private enterprise. A purist Capitalist would say there's no room for organised labour or a social safety net originating from the govt.. I say your brand of ideology is just as bad as pure Marxist Leninism. You know there's a festering wealth gap growing between the haves and the have-nots in your country. It's unhealthy and a threat to democratic capitalism. Bushists have said that give the wealthy hand-outs and the wealth will spread to the poor. There's no evidence of that happening, quite the contrary. On that note, the disenfranchised will have their say one way or another.
