From the Boortz Reading Assignments:
http://www.wvgazette.com/section/Opinion/2007040715"When we see politics permeate every sector of life, we call it totalitarianism. When religion rules all, we call it theocracy. But when commerce dominates everything, we call it liberty. Can we redirect capitalism to its proper end: the satisfaction of real human needs? Well, why not?" -- Benjamin Barber
Yes, Ben, if you socialists would let people own solar power and greenhouses, then some real human needs would be met. Socialism robs the poor to give to the rich. The government doesn't need electric power plants. People need that power, and when people can't afford it, you take their power away from them.
I'm all for socialism as long as we rob the government and give to the poor. I'm not in favor of letting government rob others in the process...just rob the government.
Look at public bus systems. First the government robs the poor of buses. Then the government makes the poor work on those buses for $6.00/hr. Then the government robs the poor again by making them pay income taxes. Why won't you socialists give these people their buses back?
I'll tell you why. Socialism isn't about the distribution of income. It's about the monopolization of all property, and when you own everything, you can make everyone work for "their fair share" of it.
You aren't taking my solar power just because others don't have it. You aren't taking my food just because others don't have it. Get off your lazy butt and start helping people with your own work. If you have time to tell America to sacrifice for others, you have time to sacrifice for others too.
You can start with working 80 hours a week like a real man. Once you have about 4 hours a day of free time, you'll realize it isn't that hard to work 40. Then you won't be complaining when every American who has 3 TVs doesn't have health care. You'll understand they have too much time on their hands, and you'll never give a crap about them again.
