		<description>#42 Again, theory vs practice. What you&#039;re referring to is the idealized, &quot;scholar&quot; definition of comunism.

The practical approach to comunism is what we have seen applied.

All social theories are utopian and differ greatly from that utopia when they get implemented.</description>

		<description>#38 Professor Pedro

You were unable to name one nation that was communist. No, not a single one.

Please timewarp back to 1955, grab a martini, play a game of golf and drive your buick and leave the rest of us modern people be.

You never learned got past the propaganda of the 50&#039;s.

There were NO communist countries EVER. They never made it through to communism. They made a small centralised government and stopped there to become a totalitarian oligarchy. They never made it to communism. No one ever will.

Because like democracy, communism is a Utopian ideal and will never be realised by lazy, greedy, selfish humans.

Democracy becomes a republic as no one wants to vote on literally everything.
Communism becomes totalitarian states as no one wants to give up power.

They do not function in the real world.

Wake up.

		<description>The self styled elite of this country loves isms. There are lot of ism lovers in Congress and the White House. A lot of John Q. Public loves isms as well. They think they are going to get something for free when all they&#039;re going to get free is owned.</description>

Sorry. The moral ending summed it up, &quot;When anybody preaches disunity, tries to pit one of us against the other...&quot; 

What part of Republican-ISM didn&#039;t you get?</description>

		<description>#37 You&#039;re clutching at straws. There were and are today plenty a country were communism is being applied. 

If you want to bring the propaganda that was used onto the poor sods that believed in the thing to be lured into it and tell us that was really communism, I&#039;ll answer you back that practical communism was &amp; is applied successfully by those that crave power forever.</description>

		<description>#34 Pedro.

Please instruct the class, good Sir, to which nation(s) became a classless, stateless society based on a small centralised government that gave up its power to common ownership?

We will all be waiting for the answer.

		<description>#33 OK Dvorak may be a lot of things but explain WHY you think he&#039;s a &quot;racist&quot;. Where&#039;s your proof or are you playing the race card like a troll?

Too often the intellectually lazy love to use that label because they&#039;re incapable of arguing a point reasonably.

So he equates Obama to a slick peddler of tonic to cure all of your ills. OH NOES. Obama&#039;s a slick politican...yah that&#039;s racist. What a dumbass you are.

Bring proof or STFU.</description>

		<description>1948 was a very different time for the world.  The US had the only manufacturing capabilities in the world.  World War II gave us that.  No longer did Germany, Japan, France, the UK and China have manufacturing capabilities.  

Compare that to now...we have almost none. Can we say the same thing now that we are the brink of 3rd world status?  

One thing was true then and isn&#039;t now.  We weren&#039;t fighting each other.  We were all on the same team.</description>

		<description>#27 said: &quot;There never has been and there never will be a communist ruled nation:

Pardon my French, but could you be any more stupid?

#29 Propaganda is posting the same thing twice.

#31 That is true. In some countries, people are actually more afraid of cops than of thugs.</description>

		<description>That little man in the vid telling off three cops on the steps of his home is a pretty dead freedom as well. There are many here who would argue that cops can do pretty much F*cking anything they like to whoever they want for whatever reason they decide on.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;#22...Capital raised from the savings of Americans … not Chinese or venture capitalists …
Hiring unemployed Americans and training them, instead of manufacturing offshore …&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;b&gt;In retrospect, I wish I had known more about the hazards and difficulties of such a business.... I wish that during the years I was in public office I had this firsthand experience about the difficulties business people face every day. That knowledge would have made me a better Senator and a more understanding presidential contender... To create job opportunities, we need entrepreneurs who will risk their capital against an expected payoff. Too often, however, public policy does not consider whether we are choking off those opportunities.-George McGovern&lt;/b&gt;


The more regulation, tax and vitriol there is against production...the more of it will move overseas.

When the cartoon was made, we didn&#039;t attack producers as profiteers...as evil rich...and so didn&#039;t drive them overseas...

Hence the cartoon reflects the time it was made, not our own.

Congress has dispatched the lawsuit greedy for $$$ lawyers against business in this country, and regulated them into inefficiency or out of business...and those hardy enough, or lucky enough to remain, will have their profits stolen...

Businesses, like people, know when they aren&#039;t wanted...and leave.

You uber liberals must stop the schizophrenia...stop crying about unemployment...either you support cap &amp; trade, bogus lawsuits and high taxes on production...and so reap the unemployment you create...or you don&#039;t, and will elect conservatives who will stop the madness against business.</description>
