Socialism != Communism you moron.
I'm actually all for socialism.
Communists are also socialists just as apples are also fruit. I was using socialism in the broad sense.
Point taken. I am not for communism as I've seen first hand what it looks like. All communism does is congregate the power in the government instead of private hands. It's still corrupt just in a different way.
Doesn't matter the form of government. Power will narrow and corrupt IMHO. It's human nature.
A lot of it, as a "Westerner" is also the devil you know.
Go read some socialist theory if you truly support socialism. Your ignorance on the topic is palpable.
