[QUOTE="sanjuro893, post: 1983510, member: 4491"] Comrade Jim, I don't have the answers. Capitalist countries are more free than socialist/communist countries ever have been or ever will be. It's that simple. There were walls put up to keep soviets IN their country, not to keep us out. Our system isn't perfect, but it's the best out of all of the crap the socialists and redistributors have tried. You want proof? How about we've been around for almost 300 years on capitalism, we've survived, even THRIVED and we're still putting along, even though we're not sure of the future. Soviets only had 80 years, and imprisoned or KILLED more of their own people in 80 years than we have in 300, so there ya go. I'm not willing to give up my liberties on the empty promise that some all-good, all-powerful benefactor government will improve my life in some way. And no matter how much you wish for it, Peter Pan, there will always be money, greed, poor people, rich people, and human nature. So take your SEIU t-shirt and your bullhorn and go sell your snake oil to some activist college kids cuz I'm not buying. [/QUOTE]
