I would like to think that I am a normal person. Left wing politics, in a simplified manner, is an attempt to take money from the hard-working middle class and give it to those who refuse to work, Robin Hood style. It is intended to give enormous power to the workers so that they can form massive unions, demand what they want, and get it. In theory, it should ensure equality, but equality isn't the most important thing in the world. When you are taking money and giving it to somebody else, in large quantities, that's not fair. That's not justice. You punish the worker and reward the non-worker. You take away all incentives for financial success.

Dear God.

*quickly exits thread*

Read the sentence which followed. I was describing Soviet Communism, which is the essence of left-wing politics.

Labour is not truly left-wing and never will be.

you think Soviet Communism is the essence of Left Wing politics and you expect me to take anything you say seriously? well done mate, you just lost any and all political credibility and credibility in this debate with one sentence.
