Everyone complaining about capitalism and globalisation:

Look, the very basis of those two ideals is that some people have to be poor. There have to be poor people to do the jobs that nobody else wants to do. People have to die to make room for other people being born. If one person is profiting, another person SOMEWHERE must be making a loss.

I'm not saying it's right or wrong, but in my opinion, it's the best system we've thought of. Communism is, of course, the alternative, but it fails to reward work, and full equality is impossible. Communism vs. Capitalism is a debate for another time, anyway.

Ahmadeninejad's system is not Communism, it's Sharia law (I dare say, dictatorship). It takes away personal freedoms and forces people to follow the laws of a religion which is, like all religions, somewhat outdated.

Maybe worldwide Communism could work. Worldwide Sharia could not.

EDIT: Oh, he can do what he wants in his own country. When he starts to threaten other countries, criticise the most popular form of government and (for god's sake) develop nuclear weapons, he needs to be stopped, and quickly.

Too late. He's probably got an Arsenal with more depth than that of the football team.
