The Berlin Wall

[george]

communisim is the dumbest idea ever.

it has the same problem that every sword and sorcery, or book about kings and queens has. on paper it sounds great, everyone shares the wealth and no one has to be sad cause everyone is taken care of.

until someone has to dig a ditch. or work at the sewage plant.

everyone thinks they'll be the king, or live a life of dignity, they wont be the ditch digger cause they are oh so fucking smart and wonderful.

but no, in the end a bunch of assholes end up kings, enough to support the system get dignity, and the rest get fucked with digging ditches with no hope of a better life.

it has taken less than a generation for people to forget the horrors that communisim unleashed on the world. go ask the lithuainians how much they liked being commies, or the vietnamese, or the chinese. communisim has been shown a fraud in every society that has ever tried to REALLY institute it.

and the socialism that europe enjoys is only cause the US picked up the tab for building their infrastructure after WW2.

unchecked capitalism is a bad thing, there have to be rules, but it butt fucks being a commie and leaves it in a ditch.
