This thread is quite long. Has anyone mentioned Adolf Hitler yet?

Yes, Robinho. He's got a yellow card.

The were not socailist policies. They were policies to minimise the power of the state and protect the rights of individuals. See US constitution for a more refined example.

That is the key to good forture and what has gone wrong in many of the hot countries.

Being made more equal is not socialist?

Nevertheless Britain seemed to do well after the circa 1400 peasant uprising.

Maggie believed in individual freedoms and liberties.

Only because half the population had died in the plague 40 years before.

The unpalatable truth is that a lot of the financial problems we are seeing today are due, directly or otherwise, to overpopulation, combined with ever increasing fluidity of the world economy.

I'm not sure I know what a socialist is. Surely all UK political parties have socialist tendencies, and have done since 1400 or so.

I agree to an extent, although Robinho appears to think bringing cheaper workers in to the UK is a capitalist thing. Where capitalist is a synonym for good.

No but it turns out Robinho is in favour of mega corps exploiting cheap foreign labour in the 3rd world as it empowers the poor beggars.

I must admit, I never saw that one coming.

Confused? You will be.

Childishness aside (unless you seriously still don't understand the utter basics of economics) I am actually very much against corporations.
