Akidron,

Perhaps some day we can have a lengthy discussion about the pro's and con's of capitalism. As a free market, capitalist ... a Liberal (in the economic sense) ... I do not agree with what I take away from your argument. In fact, I could not disagree more. [Though, I must admit that your logic begins to elude me just at or beyond the second sentence. You sound like a suffering Keynesian at best and a budding Marxist at worst.]

Alas, I fear that we shall never see eye-to-eye on the efficient allocation of resources.

But, in the end, if you do not like capitalism ... [from a dinner table discussion somewhere in Springfield between Lisa and the Sparrow ... Albanian ... "all white with red eyes" ... "the gears of capitalism oiled by the blood of the workers" ... Hmmmm. Doughnuts. ... flashback, sorry] ... You can always join the hard-working, brilliant and deserving oligarchs in Moscow in constructing a more perfect planned economy ... where you can live an Orwellian existence where some citizens are more equal than others ... based not on merit, but on how quickly they can stick their fat faces in the trough.

Hey, how 'bout that AMAT thing.
