Yeah.. I knew that from your posts. I would actually say you are a communist. You have a deep seated hatred for capitalism. However I bet you have material things and a bank account. You have an X don't you? Why aren't you living in a commune or something if you hate capitalism so much? I bet you have a big screen TV and a full entertainmnet center. A nice home. Damn... yeah capitalism does suck doesn't it.

You also have a deep seated hatred for America.

By the way ... Allende was not a democtratic socialist. He was a communist. Nice try on the spin.
You should at least put everything he said...
(Note - the "if it worked" and "there has to be a balance.")

"That's right. I would call myself a socialist. I think it would be THE perfect way to govern...if it WORKED, but it CAN'T so we have to find some other way. But capitolism ain't it. Look at what's happening. All of these big businesses that you conservatives are trying to protect are sending jobs to Mexico. The tax cut is a joke. (Could I ask you something? If you take a paycut, can you go out and buy a big screen tv? That's exactly what Bush is doing right now. Three tax cuts in two years, and he's raising spending on everything else...that's called a DEFICIT and we'll never be able to pay it off.) There are 43 Million people in the US that don't currently have health insurance.
Capitolism boils down to class warfare. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The idea that hard work will let you advance in the world is a joke. That kind of mentality hasn't worked since the fifties. Maybe you should move into the 21st century. (And don't give me that "Well, communism fell in the 20th Century bs." I SAID there has to be a balance.)
