"Marxism has never been properly tried out ANYWHERE EVER"

I can't say how much this crap gets under my skin, but I'm not about to comment on UK news articles...


"Man's search for meaning does not lead one to Rand or Marx".

Unless perverted, the search for meaning leads DIRECTLY AWAY from Rand. It can possibly lead to MARX. Marx was highly interested in justice for all people. The apparent biggest problem with Marx is that he appears to have underestimated human stupidity and selfishness. But Marxism has never been properly tried out ANYWHERE EVER, so we don't really know how well it would work.

Contemporary capitalism DEPENDS on human stupidity, fear, bigotry, and magical thinking ( Yes YOU can become a REALLY WEALTHY PERSON if you just EARN it. (Let's not mention the part about needing to be lucky enough to fall into the circumstances in which your efforts can actually pay off. Or the luck necessary to be born with a pile of wealth as your starter stake.).

"While Rand's economic theories are logical, and has successfully transformed countries, Marxism has failed to up lift anyone, and has only enslaved people everywhere they have ruled. Marxism is nothing but a collection of meaningless slogans of the type found in Mao's Red Book.
USSR, China, Pol Pot's Cambodia, Cuba, Nicaragua, North Korea and now Venezuela.
EU and the West are slouching towards the same destination"

Every statement in the above quote is demonstrably FALSE. Rand's BLATHER has never done anything good for ANYONE except the already wealthy and the owners/executives of huge corporations. FDR's New Deal; TR's trust busting, Square Deal and Conservation effort; proper environmental protection; a STRONG FDA and EPA; a Strong Government committment to civil rights; Britain's, Canada's and Cuba's medical/health insurance systems; Trade unionism; etc. have PROVEN much better for humanity than Rand ever could be.

Why not stop posting obviously delusional drivel? Try paying attention to REALITY before thinking your fevered thoughts.
