Damn......we're soooooo close.....if you could only give up this idea of Socialism and its supposed connection to liberals.

right now the far left controls the Democart Party....and, the Democrat Party controls the US government....so, effectively, the US gov. has been hijacked by a group of Marxists...(they like to call themselves progressives)

Did you read the Ron Paul piece I sent your way?

reality: redistribution (which covers welfare) programs are steps in the direction of allocation by the ruling class to the masses....that's communism/marxism....

True enough, but without defending the former, what would you call the movement of wealth to the rich?

I've dealt with that here and also here in depth to you. I'm a bad typist and all this takes time. If you're not going to read what I write, I'll switch to one-liners, lol.

neither one, (unrestrained capitalism or pure communism) can exist on a practical or pragmatic basis because the lack of uniformity of world wide socio economic evolution requires each to modify itself.

in other words, unbridled capitallism would result in the "wild west" and communism would not be able sustain/maintain its status quo as pool of human knowledge increases and gives rise to technological advances.....either is impossible....

I'll be the first to admit that capitalism must be modified in practical application or else there is chaos.....

My position is and has been that you run a Capital system with a tight leash....a system built on fairness. See Fuagfs: http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=48842595 Australia's min wage is TWICE OURS!!!!!!! TWICE! So please...this cry over Socialism is a Trojan Horse. Consider this.

(as an aside: you still believe that this economic crisis wasn't intentionally perpetrated by allowing & encouraging capitalism's unscruplous to "run wild"???)

"Still"?...lol. That's what I've been saying forever......"that this economic crisis WAS intentionally perpetrated by allowing & encouraging capitalism's unscruplous to "run wild".

We agree!!! Where we disagree is that Socialism isn't the enemy...it's Fascism (see above Ron Paul link) To summarize: again, we agree that an ideal...ie..Capitalism, Socialism...doesn't deal with reality, so let's quit talking about them as if either was really a viable solution. Secondly.......the super rich, the power elites, the true rulers don't give a damn about parties and ideals. They want CONTROL. And that control will come about thru Fascism

Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.

"We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time
Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended
our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost
forty years."

"It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world
if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years.
But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a
world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite
and world bankers is surely preferable to the national
auto-determination practiced in past centuries." http://quotes.liberty-tree.ca/quote/david_rockefeller_quote_103d

"For more than a century ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents such as my encounter with Castro to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure--one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it. http://www.crossroad.to/Quotes/brainwashing/rockefeller-mind-control.htm
