are you suggesting capitalism only works in theory?

 I would definitely suggest that capitalism has great flaws that can cause just as many human atrocities at communism.  The results are the same with the few at the top contolling the many at the bottom.  But I'm not entirely sure you know what communism is, anyway.  That word was a buzz word several years ago...but has since gone out of fashion.

Try the new vocab on for size:

You should refer to Obama as an Islamo-Fascist.  That term carries much more weight/fear and makes you sound like you are a little more up-to-date on you anti-leftist hate propoganda.

I'm a Libertarian and will probably vote for McCain but I have to admit that I giggled at that line. 

although i believe he is probably fascist...i dont believe there is enough evidence yet support such a statement.

OMG

This thread is so full of win.

I've been laughing at ten minutes at all the responses!

The truth is that Communism can work, but even in theory can't work on a large scale ...

Mennonite, Hutterite and Amish collonies are (essentially) small communist communities and they work very well because the means of production is easy to make efficient, and there is little opportunity for corruption because you can throw a rock at the person who would be corrupt.

On a larger scale Communism fails because the centeral government is attempting to controll everything with little aid in natural feedbacks; a capitalist is unlikely to continue to over-produce a product that is unpopular because they will (rapidly) go bankrupt, and other capitalists are not going to stop producing a wildly popular product in order to copy your unpopular product.

Dramatic Irony FTW.

Yeah, that Thomas Jefferson guy was a prick. Government and religion does mix.

 I didn't think dramatic irony was possible outside of literature?  Who's the audience in this case?
