Well maybe if a capitalist society is regulated by some socialist policies is not "full" capitalist anymore I guess.Do you agree there is a major difference between a socialist society and a capitalist society which is regulated by certain socialist policies?abe Socialism could work if some real wise people ruled the world.
Theorically a country with zero class differences would be beautiful and all people could feel really equal before the law but theory is so different from reality...everytime somebody wants to build up a Socialist society the results aren't so good...
Do you agree that adherence to certain socialist ideals makes one a committed socialist?

Socialism starts with a social contract. Equality and equal protection of the law, is what we are guaranteed in our social contracts.You want to get me to support the idea of socialism? Here's how you do it.
The essential idea is that everyone has the same as everyone else, there are no rich and no poor.
1. The rich, like Gates, the Clintons, Warren Buffet, Al Gore, Michael Moore, Cher, Meryl Streep, and also the Koch Brothers, all of them must give up their riches.
2. The government controls the means of production, everyone gets paid the same.
3. The law of the land is that you must work. Unless it is medically impossible for you to do so, you have to have a job. Severe penalties for those who do not. You can and will get fired if you do not work to standards, and severe penalties for that as well.
4. As production and GDP increases, everyone gets raises.
The problem with socialism as Crazy Bernie and Hollywood and the DNC want is that they have no intention of giving up their riches. The rest of us little people will, but they won't. It will fail as it always has.
Government is a "means of production"; sovereignty proves it. The law of the land, is employment at will. We merely need to have socialism bailout capitalism, through the equality of equal protection of the law, for unemployment compensation in our at-will employment States.
Solving simple poverty, increases our standard of living to that extent.

The right wing usually confuses poor with poverty. Poor is relative, poverty is defined.
Poor is relative. We have the richest poor in the world.

No it can't. not in any real sense. That is a pipe dream. We have had a war on poverty for decades and it has only gotten worse. You know what happens when you feed, clothe, and house the poor? They make more poor.
the state killed 200 million which is why our Founders tried to make the state largely illegal here. Simple enough for you?So, if 200 million is too many...what number is acceptable in your mind for your principle of freedom from state interference?you clean forgot to say what your best example of unbridled private power is?? Do you have any idea??Where would the restriction on unbridled use of private power come from?
.
How do you compete with Hitler Stalin and Mao killing 200 million or the modern liberal war on the American family and the black family in particular??

yes, liberals are anti science. they believe in survival of the least fit. If the poor had to pay for food education health care
they would not reproduce so much
One good example of full-blown capitalism is the condition which existed in the West Virginia coal-mining region during the 1920s/early 30s and was well represented in the movie, The Molly McGuires.Well maybe if a capitalist society is regulated by some socialist policies is not "full" capitalist anymore I guess.

During this era the region was economically ruled by capitalists who owned the coal mines and dominated all of the surrounding businesses. The primary occupation in that region was coal-mining. The miners worked twelve hour days and six-day weeks for pitiful wages, most of which were spent at the company stores -- which were owned by the mining companies. They lived in rented shacks which were owned by the mining companies.
There were no labor laws back then. Boys as young as twelve worked in the mines -- where conditions have been described as horrific. Death and job-related (lung) illness was commonplace.
That region was a manifest example of pure capitalism until the imposition of (socialist) labor laws, such as the 40-hour work week, paid vacation, minimum wage and safe working conditions put an end to capitalist rule and its associate cruelties.
The essential meaning of capitalism is to derive a profit from the efforts of others, a system which is perfectly acceptable -- provided it is equitably and benevolently administered via socialist regulations.
It is interesting to note how many contemporary Americans are hostile to the mere mention of the word, socialism, while enjoying so many benefits of certain strongly socialist policies which affect their lives. In fact I have a neighbor who, like me, has for years been enjoying his monthly Social Security allotment and benefiting from Medicare, yet he speaks with contempt for the "goddam socialists who are ruining this Country."
I once tried to explain how mistaken he is. He listened but now he avoids me -- and I'm sure he thinks of me as a goddam socialist.

The positive aspect of capitalism is it promotes economic growth by enabling entrepreneurs to develop profitable enterprises. The negative aspect of capitalism is it also affords opportunities for ruthless exploitation and criminal pursuits.We can say Socialism can improve Capitalism. Joking aside I think both systems have positive and negative perspectives.

Mogadishu had no taxes and virtually no regulation, for over a decade; how many fortune five hundred Firms, relocated there?
how stupid and liberal can you be?? SS steals 15% of your life time income and gives you back pennys if you live long enough to collect a penny. Medicare is free except the libnazis tax you 4 times what other countries pay for similar or better health care!! Do you understand??major social benefits as Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid,

how would you know??? You said you have not run the numbers??????????????????????????????????This notion you have about being cheated by Social Security has been deposited
If you had been faithfully depositing a regular amount of money in a safe and reliable investment throughout your working life you are an extremely rare exception, because it's a simple fact of human nature that the vast majority of workers would not, could not, do that. And that awareness of human nature, which was based on educated observation is why Social Security was devised.how would you know??? You said you have not run the numbers??????????????????????????????????
Do you understand the time value of money. how much would your pay check from 1937 be worth today if you had invested for retirement. Will you die with an estate fromr SS they way you would if you had socked away $1.4 million in your own name while you were working?? Do you understand??? You're a liberal fool to think that because they are giving you SS welfare and Medicare welfare they are doing you a big favor!! They exist based upon you being a fool.
