I just wanted to get a piece of information across to the Communist countries. Capitalists feel free to post but please yall....lets not fight over a simple question!

Are you a true Socialist?

I for one, am not. Sadly I say that. I am reading up on Socialism/Communism, and I am trying to convert to a "true" Socialist. What is your standpoint on the matter?

There is no real definition of true socialism. Besides, my country has always advocated a middle road between capitalism and socialism; combine the best of both and you get a powerful economy without the resulting poverty.

"Socialism" is a fine political system on paper, but you CANNOT trust humans to do the right thing...

Not to mention, Lenin completely warped the concept of socialism with his twisted communism.

If it could work, I'd use socialism in a heartbeat.

This "middle-of-the-road" sounds good comrade. It sounds Economically, Politically, and Militarily strong. Why didnt I think of something like that?!?!?! Are any of you communists? If you are I want you to have a look at my "alliance": Bronze Communist League. Just telegram me for the password if you want in it. I'm not trying to build up or anything by asking this but you all seem smart on the topic and I would like to have you on my side if at all possible.
