The Jews had it right...socialists need to be nailed to a tree and crowned with thorns. Capitalism is the way.

I quite like capitalism, but your post goes a little far and is more than a little troll-ish.

More like they need to be given the rope to hang themselves with.

There needs to be some "society" or "colony" that would meet all the conditions of the socialists yet fail.

We need a socialist colony on the moon! A completely self-sustaining colony where we see how well they survive and if they turn to capitalism! :D

That's the best idea I've heard on these forums to this date...

I think that a redistribution of the wealth would be good- then just let people do what they want
see if the equality is still there in 20, 10, 5, even 1 year's time

Equally Sliders, it could be argued that as an anarcho-capitalist you should move to one of the many tax havens (say Belize sp?) which are already pretty near to your conception of the perfect society.

The more capital you have the more it works for you and the more you become useless. That's capitalism.
Socialism is not an economic system and it looks like it is working well in Norway and elsewhere.

Opal Isle, you seem to make a hell of a lot of threads were you know (at least i'm hoping you do) that a lot of people will be really annoyed. Why?

I like capitalism with slight socialist tendencies.
