Thank you. If ya don't let out your inner 'rodney dangerfield" every once in awhile you'll go nuts.
Eh, pretty much everything we could do to harm the planet (except nuclear waste) the planet can fix in a few hundred thousand years. The human race is just a bump in the road in the grand scheme of things and in 5 million years when there are nothing left but 12,0000 different species of animals all derived/evolved from the last two jack russell terriers in exsistence that were left over after we messed it all up no one will care. big whoop! See i think LONG term.
doobnVA, I know,I thought saying eat people was to tacky, so I fudged.Soylent Green is.... PEOPLE!
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Is this a Smokin gun or whatNot gloomy, I'm pretty upbeat.I'm old and will be gone long before these problems start callapsing society.As doob says " these are facts".I can name 2 or 3 more looming disaster,but don't worry 2012 will solve all our problems,LOL..
Socialism is an idealistic form of society structured by a central government and rigid rules for people in regards to money and goods.I just want to hear some honest, informed opinions on why you think socialism is so horrible. Please bear in mind that socialism is not the same as communism, fascism, or nazism. Let's just stick with socialism for now.
2 questions:
What do you think socialism means?
And
Why do you consider socialism "bad"?
Right. That describes 20th century France to a tee.Socialism is an idealistic form of society structured by a central government and rigid rules for people in regards to money and goods.
Socialism is good in paper. In practice it has failed everyone who has ever tried it beyond the small community level. At a national level it is the pathway to despotism.
Socialism is an evil concept. It deprives mankind of dignity.
Should be pretty easy to point out where I'm wrong.Right. That describes 20th century France to a tee.
Have you ever had an actual, original thought of your own, or do you just spend your meagre mental resources on an endless bout of serial regurgitation?
Everything you've said here is incorrect, misleading right wing propaganda, spewed without a shred of conscious, original thought.Should be pretty easy to point out where I'm wrong.
France isnt a socialist country. It has adopted socialist policies. But it isn't the whole deal.
But exactly what makes socialism bad is the fact that just because you're breathing others have obligations to you. It can only be maintained by force.

Pretty much par for the course with you.
All sociopolitical systems are forced. Capitalism is forced. Living in a Capitalist country, we also face subversion from it daily.

Couldn't tell you. I'm still feeling this whole peace thing out. I'm used to shooting at shit when it presents a threat.Exactly.
Therefore if a person disavows the use of offensive force as a primary means....there must be another way, right?
Some things to ponder...Couldn't tell you. I'm still feeling this whole peace thing out. I'm used to shooting at shit when it presents a threat.
