[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5401566, member: 24302"] True, France is better than Canada. Your argument is silly. Before capitalism there was colonialism and mercantilism. Capitalism developed as markets evolved. You make it sound like capitalism was just sitting out there with no one wanting to use it. Markets evolved with the industrial revolution, the invention of labor saving machines, the printing press, the steam engine, electric power, trains, automobiles, telephones, computers. Just how much of that did we have three hundred years ago? And what you're not getting is we have all of that because of capitalism. People don't just invent things because they're curious. Capitalism takes their ideas and turns it into companies selling products that make money. Layer upon layer of new ideas allows others to build on that and make even better products for consumers. We didn't have that three hundred plus years ago. Of course you think you're being clever by just repeating over and over as I did to you. Difference is you offer nothing to defend your positions. Just say repeatedly Chomsky, Hedges, Nader, Wolfe, whoever says. [/QUOTE]
