So why socialism?

[sasguru]

Jabber,


Weren't you the guy who was pretending to be American on the old forum?
PS I have made some points you have not responded to. What's the matter?
"Idiot's Guide to Socialism" didn't have the answers? Bit like when you raise awkward points with Chico, he throws his toys out of the pram.
Dunce.

The point lone bunman is that you don't want ten well argued reasons - you want something to snipe at - that is because you are bereft of your own ideas and lack the intellect to play dice with the Jabber.

I see you still rely on insults or pathetic attempts at humour to cover the fact that you actually are incapable of producing the slightest support of your proposition.

Let me explain. This is a bulletin board, a place for the online exchange of ideas and opinions.
The idea is that you propose an idea and support it with your evidence as arguments, those who disagree either show the error in your arguments or propose thier evidence in opposition, its called a discussion.

Show me how socialism defeats greed!
Let me give you a fighting chance.

I say greed is a human condition, the only way you can satisfy it is by giving everyone all that they desire. Some comodities are in far too short a supply to provide everyone with all they desire so said comodities have value. Some people will be willing to trade for those items or work for them.
However your socialist policy says that those items must be distributed evenly again. This redistrbution will teach the workers that thier work ethic is pointless as the state will provide what is needed and will remove any excess.
Once you have removed the work ethic from the people who were willing to work, then no one will do anything and your society will collapse.

[QUOTE=Jabberwocky]But you sound like a petulant child - please sir, please sir, give me the 10 reasons or else I am right sir. Go on sir, 10 reasons sir, no 20, give me twenty and I will believe you sir.

1. Greed
2. Envy
3. Lust
4. War
5. Welfare
6. Achievement
7. Fulfillment
8. Justice
9. Truth
10. Honor

So, the reason Socialism works is 'Lust' ??????? Great list of words but they do not really support your philosophy do they? Incidentally, if you can't be bothered to debate an issue then don't do me any fabvours.

The only dunce on this board is you sasguru. Others like Spod, Lone G, John G etc make a point of trying to get their point across. You on other hand resort to insult, showing you lack the ability to have a reasoned discussion without it getting personal. What was your first ever post on the old board. "All religious minded people should be shot" - You are a fool and an imbecile - that is not an insult it is fact. Now piss off and go an argue with your primary school friends (That was an insult!! - thicko)

[The Lone Gunman]

No?

How about envy?
All those non working types you have generated are nwo looking at what a miserable place England is to be unemployed.
Look how good that Barbadian has it sitting on the beach drinking rum.
They want some of that which will ruin the good places.
He has a new suit, why dont I? Why has his house got a better view than mine and so on....

Come on where is your argument?

If you have read the thread (which I doubt) you will see that just like you, Jabber refuses to answer points I have made. Therefore when I call him a dunce, it is just a statement of fact, exactly like you are a dunce.
It is laughable that you criticise my "ability to have a reasoned discussion without it getting personal". I refer you to any thread on which you have appeared.

PS No reason to sign off your posts as "thicko". We know you are.

oh dear add pathetic to the list thicko - now piss off.

Tut tut, someone seems to have lost their Christian charity. What's the matter - had a bad day?

Dunce.

But you already know all the arguments don't you sasguru. You have made up your mind and there is little to debate. Hence my derision - I don't have to defend myself here - this isn't a court of law - all I am doing is pointing out some of the virtues of socialism - that doesn't require interrogation or any requirement to satisfy your whim.
