The guy that won't show his taxes wants to "fix" ours???

I can give you my rather lengthy list. It will save you some time. Kinda tricky on this board, as they encourage socks.
We don’t encourage them, we allowed them for a werewolf game and a particular poster still uses his. There are only a few ways to verify identities of poster, we like to err on the side of fairness, we don’t like to ban a poster just because we think they are a sock.
 
Fidel is said to be worth $900 million. How did he earn that money not at the expense of the people?

I stand corrected about Fidel. Sometimes far left regimes gain great wealth and sometimes they do not; I erroneously thought Fidel had not. Thanks for the correction. But it is an apples and oranges issue, and no one is advocating Fidel's system.
 
Silly claim that the ultra wealthy drive the actual economy.....yes.

I actually wouldn't quite say the ultra wealthy drive the economy - I'd say they're more parasites than drivers, though some of them DO provide some real contributions - just they're way, way, way overpaid for them.

Thanks for the offer, I bet it's quite valid - but I generally like to let each person earn the spot and expect it'll get closer to yours.

I'm exposing the flaw in Cawacko's claim that the economy magically moves forward once start up funding is in place.

Forgot about Werewolf. The rules on this board do tend to welcome socks, whereas many boards discourage them.

Of course, socks tend to out themselves to those who pay attention.

The problem with your list is that it excludes capitalist plutocracies, which are very problematic as well - as well as being an inaccurate list.

Cuba is not a plutocracy. The Castro brothers nor other Cubans are billionaires at the expense of the people.

Russia is more a kleptocracy than a plutocracy, but it is plutocratic - headed by people who are anti-communist.

It's far more plutocratic now than when it was communist.

But the point here has nothing to do with communism - it has to do with plutocracy, and how we can be more or less plutocratic, with liberal or Democratic Socialist policies like in Scandanavia and somewhat Canada, western Europe, etc.

Socialism fosters plutocracy. It made Putin, Castro, Chavez and lil' Kimmy the richest men in their countries.

Communism is the absence of the State ... according to Marx.

Why does the Left want America to look like all white Aryan nations???? The Socialists still worship "the Aryan" just as they did in their Hitler hey day. Some things never change.

Can you provide a list of Capitalist plutocracies? I'd like to see it.

Fuck you, you little socialist authoritarian dictator.

You wanna cap the pay of movie stars, athletes, fashion designers, Zuckerberger, Buffet, Soros, Obama, Clinton and Gates too? :palm:

That's just hugely misguided.

For one thing is equates 'socialism' not only with communism but with authoritarian regimes generally.

And, it distorts the issue. Name me a country that doesn't have a 'privileged class'. Every society does - but not equally.

It's hard to know where to start. One of the first things people would think of for plutocracy would be the banana republican, with a tyrant who has fabulous wealth while the people are poor - but that doesn't recognize how many of those situations were created by design by the US, in siphoning the wealth of the country and paying off a 'strong man' to be the US's agent allowing it.

In short, more socialist approaches are all about more of the society's wealth going to benefit the people - the opposite of plutocracy.

Fascism is plutocratic. Capitalism is plutocratic - the only thing keeping it from being more plutocratic are policies and systems that prevent capitalism.

Take the US. Public education is not capitalistic. Public roads are not capitalistic. Public regulations for safe food, cars, and planes are not capitalistic. Democracy is not capitalistic - it gives each person one and only one vote and is designed to do the opposite of capitalism and give power to the people instead of the wealthy. When the people vote for a progressive tax system, that's not capitalism. These and many more violations of capitalism make the US seem like a 'capitalism isn't so bad' country.

Highly regulated capitalism is arguably an optimal system, over less regulated capitalism, over socialism, over communism, over fascism and other alternative. Today's right wing, though, it's for that - it's for plutocracy.

You asked for a list of capitalist plutocracies - today's US would head that list, but it's not even right only look at it as a national issue. Many companies are no bigger than most countries. US corporations are holding $2.7 trillion offhshore hostage demanding to not be taxed much on it if the US wants the money returned to our economy. Plutocrats now have not only corrupted our elections and run our government but have made their right to do so protected by the Supreme Court.

You seem locked into closed-minded understanding of this, referring to things like Marx.

Your false history and statements about the left and Aryans are just wrong and evil. Socialists do not worship 'Aryans' and Hitler was not a socialist, he was a fascist, and the first people to fight him were the socialists.

I was referring to rule 10. I've never seen language like that on the boards I've been on. I don't have any issues with the way you guys run the place. I simply edit my ignore list whenever the racists/misogynists expose themselves.

I think that all these rich turbo libs should give up all of their cash before committing the rest of us plebes to socialism.

Obviously, you've been brainwashed by the liberal madrassas. You are totally upside down, and like most leftists, are Orwellian when it comes to word defintions.

Banana repulics are socialists :palm: There was nothing right wing about Hitler.

Who the fuck do you think builds the roads, cars, planes and grows the food?

You sound like a millenial who has been duped into paying for old retiring rich white peoples' healthcare. :palm: Get to work, bitch. You got a lot of national debt to pay and boomers you need to pay for.
 
At this rate you'll soo be talking to only people that you agree with. That's the very definition of closed minded. LOL

Yep

:clink:

Craig lives in the proverbial liberal bubble "safe zone" :rofl2:

He can't even provide a list of capitalist plutocracies that he likes to pretend are a global epidemic. :rofl2:
