    well, that is true. I'm wasn't really debating the purity of capitalism. But, that is a good point to make. There is a reason no society has EVER employed a laissez-faire economic system. That is reason is because of human nature. The system is perfect, people are not.


    The point is the behavior of the society. Those countries get to play pretend, as is, largely thanks to this country's history. Socialism is not only against human nature but also a lot of animals. Until there is a need to evolve into it there is no need to pretend it works.

      You assume everyones motivation is financial, Brooks. This is not true, although in our system it is a major driving force. "Necessity is the mother of all invention" and a socialist economy would do just fine on it's own.

      Pro's and cons to both economies

        You need a mix of both, today's economy is not about production & capital. Its about sucking the wealth out of everything & giving it to a small group of people. Those that produce nothing & take the fruits of labor though ownership. Its perfect alright, perfect for 1% of the people. All the rest of us are just here to make them richer. If you don't tax away their unearned gains, were all fuked & the economy will collapse.

            Incorrect. There are two types of profit - financial profit and life profit. One cannot be bought with the other. And many (probably an overwhelming majority) place higher value on life profit. If greed and envy encompass your life profit to a high degree, only then will financial profit exceed life profit in value.

              lol no there is not. There are actually 3 major kinds of profit and "life profit" is not one of them. Or if you're talking economics there are two types, economic profit and accounting profit which can breakdown into other more specific types and none of them are "life profit."


              Even if what you said was true it has nothing to do with what I said, you should have realized that anyways.

                    Ok. I know I'm dealing with a moron here. So, I'll slow it down a bit. Economic AND accounting profit is FINANCIAL profit, genius. Life profit has to do with life experiences and happiness. There is more to life than money for the vast majority of people on the planet. People in third world countries can be and often are happy. And they've probably lived a more fulfilling life than you despite living in poverty.

                    You just negated someone saying that "everyones motivation is financial, Brooks." It has everything to do with what you said.

                        Of course it is. Not in the mind of a brainless pawn obviously.

                              It's no surprise that you're too braindead and stubborn to watch a Ted Talk and learn from someone else's experiences in life though. No surprise at all.

                                      No surprise that someone with one brain cell can't multitask (or spell for that matter). No surprise at all.

                                      You're a braindead pawn with zero capacity for improving yourself. Enjoy your misery.

                                          A guy declaring himself the winner of an internet argument is calling someone else a child for using a colloquial descriptor. Your irony runs deep, pawn.

Or if you're talking economics there are two types, economic profit and accounting profit which can breakdown into other more specific types and none of them are "life profit."


                                                  Even if what you said was true it has nothing to do with what I said, you should have realized that anyways.

                                                        And I was so much older then

Here is a moron that realizes he should make fun of socialists but cannot for the life of him, cannot even to save his pride explain anything at all about a socialist. even though this same moron is constantly pontificating about every single political issue under the sun.

                                                              I have on many occasions explained he is the dumbest, most dishonest and poorly educated on this entire forum. I have proved it about 100 times, and this is just another.

                                                              Dwightie, you have no pride none at all, it matches your brain.

I have taught Dwightie so much through the years and I will keep this from him just in case I need to embarrass his stupid ass along with you and other right wing morons who pontificate with ease but know almost nothing about almost everything.
