almost everyone i kno thats russian, i can honestly say, have some praise for stalin, gorbachev(altho he wasnt a commie), and khrushchev, u dont hear ivan teh terrible or yeltsen, on taht list
i didlook it up and mine is in accordance...and i didnt mean to imply capitlist countries dont have health care , that just came up under the same breath, i just adding that since u seem to have a problem with places that dont have suficient healht care
despite the lack of a true definition about all of them apply to my definition http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=define%3A+capitalism
u seem to have such a problem with lack of health care, and yet ur party calls for no federalized health care options, no public assitance for the poor, bye bye welfare and medicade, hello corporate fuedalism
even tho im sure u hate me, i dont hate u, ur jsut confused or watever (i just got heated), i called myself a liberatarian once, then i realized that made me worse than bush, no public transportation, no corporate regulation, no more ozone (lol), no more public schools, no more welfare, no mroe soc. security, no more gun control, no more limits on corporate donations for certain candidates, know what i mean
Funny, the person who started this thread, in previous posts said he was a "Gorillaz" fan. The "Gorillaz" are an alternative rap band. on another note...Soul is correct about that, Russia was certainly not decent under the czars, 99% of the human population would prefer communist USSR to czarist Russia (which was capitalist). I know I, as a Russian who's family fled Russia to escape the czar, would. Ruben, you are completely wrong there. If Russia ever had a Golden Age, it would obviously be while they were part of the USSR, but i dont think Russia's true Golden Age has occurred yet. Also, The Communist Manifesto did inspire Democratic Socialism, although there were communist-collectivist ideas around before marx. But Soul, you have got to slow down when youre typing, man, geez, I dont know anyone can read a word of that shit. ps. where in bergen county are you from, Soul? I live in Garfield, NJ
well, im glad to see someone here is logical, but it was two on one here, i mean ud think thered be some liberals in a hippie forum but i guess i was wrong(we really are an endangered species), but it was 2 on 1 so i hadda type fast and i'm dyslexic (which affects my composition of letters), if that helps. w/e this page is about the rap comment not a polotics debate, im just glad thats over, its turned ugly, so lets not say anything that could egg anyone on, if u dont mind
Well Soul, I'm not on your team or your side, I dont agree with your critique on Liberatarianism, in the sense of being worse than Bush, also, dont defend Stalin, although you made clear your dislike of him, I dont think anyone should defend him, even to make a point. My problem with Communism is it only works in theory (I didnt say Socialism, which may be currently working, but Communism). I dont support your views at all, I was simply pointing out that Rubin was just flat out wrong.
ok i wasnt implying teams i jsut said no one talk about it anymore, b/c im done arguing, and communism hasnt really been applied to a country yet, russia which i think were referring to when u said that was ran by stalin who practiced a right wing type of leninism now called anti-revisionism, khrushchev practiced a combination of deleonism and revionism (during his destalination) and breznev too practiced revisionism, followed by gorbachev who posed as a shactmanist, but later began a socialist conversion, never were they truely marxist(if thats what u meant by "communism") but please leave it alone, its dead, please no one, NO ONE bring up anymroe of this, its dead, its gone, passed, dry, leave it alone please b/c when u take shots at communism i feel an inclination to respond. so its squashed...
