epiphany   10 #38 Posted November 2, 2011 (edited) Sadly though that's the only way socialism can 'work'. Without oppressive state controls, socialism is an unworkable daydream - the reality of human nature is that we are not all equal, of equal worth of equal value to society. We all find our level in a free society which allows those with skill and drive to prosper while the lazy or inept fail to do so.  Some socialist schools don't believe in equality of outcome or that everyone is of equal value. Many socialists advocate free markets and profit on a co-operative basis. Some see it purely as an economic philosophy, not a model of social justice.  Since we all know capitalism is unsustainable, you either accept the collapse of society or you read up about the alternatives, which tend to combine elements of socialism and capitalism. The only daydreaming is done by those who believe we can continue forever with the current system.

Mecky   10 #41 Posted November 2, 2011 Indeed, he's his own worst enemy!  I've often wondered what it would be like to be so blinkered you refuse to read, let alone understand anything, that may oppose you own ill-founded and narrowminded views, thanks for the demonstrations.

alchresearch   206 #43 Posted November 3, 2011 Perhaps the OP could link the quotes to particular posters and threads to verify their accuracy and see they haven't been taken out of context?  I take it that's a no then.

Keith Rich   10 #47 Posted November 4, 2011 WOW it took you a long time, I just read the user name and realised it would be a lot of crap so didn't bother reading the OP.  So you admit to passing judgement on a written piece of work even though you have never read it.  This is what is known as a biased and bigoted opinion.  Congratulates, you have passed the test with flying colours. You are now a true Tory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Conrod   10 #48 Posted November 4, 2011 So you admit to passing judgement on a written piece of work even though you have never read it.  This is what is known as a biased and bigoted opinion.  Congratulates, you have passed the test with flying colours. You are now a true Tory. Forgive me Keith, bu isn't your assumption about Tories equally biased and bigoted? Or are you just unable to see that?
