Chris, > Many countries are more "socialist" that ours, and are quite successful. The Chinese communists have posted higher growth rates than ours for over a decade.

a) China is growing out of communism, not into communism. That explains their high growth rates.

b) I really don't think you want us to become like China. Your anti-Bush rants, for instance, would land you in jail. (So much for the "Bush is Hitler" nonsense that you left-wingers love to push.) Not to mention that your standard of living would be much worse than it is now.

c) Like I said before, socialism has failed every single time it's been tried. Even its supporters admit that, though they think that if we keep trying, we'll get it right someday.
