[QUOTE="Fred's Myth, post: 3672251, member: 55587"] Agreed. [B]Please allow me to perfectly explain why socialism doesn't work:[/B] There does NOT exist a fixed/static lump sum of wealth in the world that merely awaits distribution. Wealth can be created or destroyed (according to how efficiently human beings cooperate to produce wealth). If the "pie" is unfairly looted by socialists and dispensed to their supporters (who did not create the pie), then guess what? It's a party (initially) until the pie runs out and nobody bakes a new pie. Conversely, if the incentive to bake more pie is maintained through capitalism, then the pie can actually grow, which inevitably benefits poor people (for various reasons). In other words, expanding the pie means one person getting rich does NOT mean someone else has to get poor. Understand now, liberals? No, of course you don't! [/QUOTE]
