[quote:Anonymous Coward 1061562:MV8xNjc5MTM0XzI3NzQ3NTgzXzdBRjVEREE4] [quote:Anonymous Coward 2170619:MV8xNjc5MTM0XzI3NzQ3MjE2X0RFMTI4NEVC] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1556664:MV8xNjc5MTM0XzI3NzQ2ODI2XzQwMTQzNTlC] The protestors believe they`ll have a slice of collectivism, when the irony is that their beloved system will throw them down the well [/quote] well guess what, is Capitalism any better ??? we have ALREADY been thrown down the well. Just ask those in tent cities who lost their homes, their jobs, their life savings, etc .... truth is, both sides may throw you down the well, but socialism at least spreads the wealth in the process and makes it more equal across the board. The 1% now becomes 50% or more of the population. which is a better ratio to live under ??? 1% vs 99% ??? or 50% vs 50% ??? [/quote] Oh boy. Capitalism isn't bad. Its the only chance you have at real freedom. Under capitalism You still have the power to become a bum or rich. The choice is yours. People do it every day. That's why America has enjoyed the largest middle class in modern human history. It didn't happen by accident. The opportunity was there and It was provided by Freedom and capitalism. You lose one, you lose the other. Don't confuse capitalism with corporatism. Corporations get special favors (the large ones anyways!) with presidents and congress because of the money they shell out for elections. This is where theft occurs. This is what needs fixing. You don't scrap a great system because of abuse! Socialism and Communism won't produce anything other than misery. You won't have opportunity. You won't have choice. You won't have extra income. You'll be stuck in your own low class with everyone else. To make matters worse, there will STILL be an entrenched, rich, super class. All systems have such a class. It's just that everyone else (read that to mean all of us) will be degraded as money is taken from the middle class and redistributed to the poor. Making an elite class then everyone else in a lower class. By the time you figure out how stupid you were and begin resisting your new enslavement, you'll end on your knees in front of a ditch with a soldier pointing a gun at the back of your head. Did your teachers teach you that in school? The communist killed a hell of a lot more citizens than the Nazi's ever did. So, if you think the Nazi's were bad, you better think twice about communism!
