[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 4811936, member: 24302"] Well of course he's a New England liberal. What you don't get is the socialism you seek is to control the masses. [USER=55017]@It will be fine[/USER] considers himself one of the intelligentsia who will control the masses. He gets a better life, better perks for doing so. You have it in your head there will be an egalitarian paradise with equal outcomes. But that's not human nature. There will always be those who believe they are superior and thus deserve more. That's the difference between socialism and capitalism. Socialist leaders don't contribute to the greater good, they just control. Soon everything falls apart. Capitalists get rich by building a better mousetrap that benefits people. The richest create things that benefit the most. And unfortunately there will always be people like you who resent their wealth and long for a world where all have plenty and no one has too much. Doesn't work that way, and never will. [/QUOTE]
