Ali,

<To make a simple parallel: if you have two strains
of bacteria (say, communus and capitalus) in a
Petry dish (Earth globe), they will inevitably
confront each other on many fronts, but eventually
the fastest growing colony will take over. No
matter who presides.>

Didn't think I would get into this discussion but let me say this:
Regardless of ones leanings towards capitalism or communism, this is a pretty cool analogy!

Cheers,
Chuck

P.S.: I am guessing you are a Bionomics fan.....

I disagree. There is a lot wrong with communism theoretically and very little that is good about it theoretically or practically. You use health care as an example. Do you think the average person in the Soviet Union got better health care then someone in the US did?
