"from each according to his ability, to each according to his need."

and whats the opposite of that sentence? Its marie antoinettes "let them eat cake".
Neither works. Both are on the extremes. But in the middle whether you like it or not, rich folks subsidize the lot of the poor thru taxation and poor folks often are told by folks like you and marie antoinette to eat cake. So our system is mixed between socialist precepts and capitalist ones. We decide a long time ago that ayn randism is not for us. Nor is communism.

I agree with it all - except for the AIG case. But then again, those guys under normal circumstances should have been left to their own destiny.

One could argue there are other aspects that aren't implemented [yet], but it doesn't matter.

Unhinged non sense. You guys deserve the irrelevance you are quickly embracing.
