  socialists think that money will solve all man's problems.

  everything is obsessively related to money in the socialist ideology.. they have an almost supernatural ability to blame others with more money.

  god calls this greed and envy.

  coalize:

  Socialism : 100 people have enough money by stealing 2 rich people.

  It's not stealing but taking back what they took from you in the first place. They became rich off the labor of the poor without any just compensation.

  They're not "damaged"; it is simply their nature to be what they are. You will find such people everywhere in society. They are the CEOs and politicians of this world. They simply have an evil brain.

  I myself am semi-Syndicalistic. I believe that workers should own and operate the business they work for. It is the worker who's the creator of wealth not their rulers in the hierarchy.

  Syndicalism is usually considered to be a form of Socialism though I refer to it as worker's capitalism. Since the business is owned by the workers they have the vantage point of knowing what they need to do without any micro-managing from the state.

  And since the workers are the company they do not have the perverse incentive of stripping down their pay in favor of elevating the pay of CEOs and the top echelons of the hierarchy.

  4 Hear this, you who trample the needy
  and do away with the poor of the land,

  5 saying,

  “When will the New Moon be over
  that we may sell grain,
  and the Sabbath be ended
  that we may market wheat?”—
  skimping on the measure,
  boosting the price
  and cheating with dishonest scales,
  6 buying the poor with silver
  and the needy for a pair of sandals,
  selling even the sweepings with the wheat.

  7 The Lord has sworn by himself, the Pride of Jacob: “I will never forget anything they have done."

  Amos 8:4-7 - New International Version

  Perry: "A rising tide lifts all boats."

  Face it Perry, middle class "boats" are sinking.

  bohm:

  So are Scandinavia socialist? Is it more socialist than e.g. the USA? Can we agree that countries can be at least this socialist without failing?

  Perry never agrees or admits to anything.

  That seems to apply to capitalism.

  They have an almost supernatural ability to blame others with more money. God calls this greed and envy. They are sins.

  Capitalists blame those with little money for their problems. They think they're entitled to the wealth that workers produce (which transforms into money). They are greedy, constantly thinking of ways to increase their money at the expense of others.

  Remember the National Socialist German Workers' Party? No? They were called Nazi's for short.

  Hitler killed all the Socialist leaders in the Nazi party. That historical event is called "The night of the long knives". Hitler also hated communists and rounded them up into the concentration camps.

  The party, in its beginning, had been a hybrid party. They called themselves "nationalist" in order to attract the right wing (whenever the word "nationalist" comes to mind it always applies to the right wing). They called themselves "Socialist" to attract the left wing. By attracting the disaffected of both movements they were able to draw enough voters to win an election.

  The fate of the Socialists within the Nazi party was sealed when Hitler came into power. Once they were killed off and the election was won they started destroying unions - something no Socialist would do.

  Same thing applied to the other two major fascists in Europe. Mussolini, in Italy, had been kicked out of the Socialist party. Franco, in Spain, had the Socialists trying to kill him.

  Domination is the result of Socialism, not freedom and equality. This is a demonstrable fact of history.

  Socialist nations can be either freedom oriented or dictatorial. Go to Western Europe where Bohm lives and you will find those Socialist nations that believe in freedom and democracy and I should say much more than the United States with its plutocracy. You conveniently pick out the examples that you wish and ignore the ones that contradict your ideology.

  How many Hollywood millionaires lead a train-wrecked life in spite of all their money?

  Why Hollywood millionaires and not the others who outnumber them?

  Here are two galaxies crashing together. Why would an orderly god crash two galaxies into each other?

  

  Because the Universe is the product of both chaos and order. One infinitesimally small thing gave birth to a zillion things just like one religious leader gave birth to a zillion denominations.

  What do Muslims Really Think - UK Documentary

  by cofty in

  channel 4 have commissioned a study into attitudes among british muslims.. the documentary starts in an hour from now at 10pm.

  if you watch it live or on 4od please share your thoughts.. unlike many other surveys of muslim opinion, which have predominantly been done by phone or online, icm used face-to-face, in-home research to question a representative sample of 1,000 muslims across great britain.

  icm also used a “control sample” to compare what british muslims thought with the rest of the british population.. at the top-line level, the survey suggests that a mainstream british muslim majority have similar values and attitudes to the wider british public on issues such as support for british institutions and a feeling of belonging to britain.. but looking deeper into the results, a chasm develops between those muslims surveyed and the wider population on attitudes to liberal values on issues such as gender equality, homosexuality and issues relating to freedom of expression.

  Muslims need a good education as to what to expect when they enter a European nation. They should be told that if they cannot have any tolerance for others with different values they should stay at home.
