What a ******* load of shit from you Trotsky....
Like I said... you are having fun playing this Communistic game. But the end result of Capitalism is no better... in fact, even worse. When only a "select few" have access to the Capital, it's even MORE brutal than anything a Communist can dream up... Look at Nazi Germany, Look at Mussolini's Italy, For God's sake, look at the modern day Middle East.
Nope, you won't. You'll deflect and deny, like your ILK always does.
Not one of us on this board is calling for a Communist takeover of the United States, but I'd be willing to bet that a large chunk of you do not see the danger in true Capitalism unfettered.
Socialism, communism, fascism, crony capitalism are all forms of some level of CPE's
and share little with a true free market system. You may find some type of "comfort" in thinking
fascism is a child of the right and free markets, but you would be wrong. Fascists depend on and thrive on
a large and intrusive gov't or "big gov't", not small.
Indeed
Peter Drucker
"the complete collapse of the belief in the attainability of freedom and equality through Marxism has forced Russia to travel the same road
toward a totalitarian society of un-freedom and inequality which Germany has been following. Not that communism and fascism are essentially the same.
Fascism is the stage reached after communism has proved an illusion, and it has proved as much an illusion in Russia as in pre-Hitler Germany."
Hayek
Fascism defined:
"It is simply collectivism freed from all traces of an individualist tradition which might hamper its realization"
Of course you know who said:
"We are socialists, we are enemies of today's capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak,
with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility
and performance, and we are all determined to destroy this system under all conditions."
As a side note:
Stalin killed more people than Hitler
In fact, communism or some socialist variant of it have murdered more
people than any other political system.

Again what is wrong then for
Progressives to go the full step?
As the article in the previous post
concluded that both Europe and the US are currently showing
that nanny-state cannot coexist with free market economies in the long run
People are going to have to choose between the CPEs
required by burdensome entitlement programs
or free market economies and personal responsibility
Why do US progressives fear to take the great leap?
They all know capitalism is failing us
Do they really believe we are only one regulation or one new tax
from fixing it?
