Comments on: Socialism: A Polite Word For Shakedown http://www.misanthropytoday.com/socialism-a-polite-word-for-shakedown/ Hating Everyone Since 2005 .............(This Could Take Awhile) Wed, 01 Feb 2012 01:10:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: sydney http://www.misanthropytoday.com/socialism-a-polite-word-for-shakedown/#comment-6708 sydney Mon, 29 Nov 2010 15:37:46 +0000 http://www.misanthropytoday.com/?p=749#comment-6708 The freedom to pratice capitalism is good. That doesnt' mean that all who practice capitalism are good. Yes sometimes greed gets in the way and makes people cheat and do wrong within the realm of capitalism, but I'd much rather have the right to decide to be good or bad, than have a government decide to take what is mine and give to those who don't work/want to work.

It works all over the world. And statistically speaking, they are doing a hell of a lot better than the U.S. in many areas. Less crime, higher rate of literacy, peaceful, and longer life spans. It's possible you watch too much TV. The fact is, socialism is a slippery slope; there exists a fine line between socialism and capitalism - but the fact remains: If what is happening here took place in a socialist country, the same types of blogs, and other forms of dissent would be in as much abundance. Capitalism brings out the worst, and best in man. Socialism denies man the freedom to be a greedy slob.

For some people that don't have <a href="http://www.cheapo.co" target='_blank' >money</a> to school themselves or buy a house this would be a good alternative. Also Socialistic ideas in Capitalistic systems are commonplace because Socialism is for common folk not the please that are gifted swindlers/thieves. It seems that Cuba and the US are changing roles.
