answer my questions posed to you. Your country was decidedly capitalistic. It has socialist standards before this election. Government was forced to take over the markets recently if you follow the news. It seems like you need the review in what socialism and capitalism is.

But that's not really your problem with Obama, is it? You need SOME word, don't you? And ANY word will do, won't it? Because that good ol' n-word just isn't polite any more, is it?
How sad when faced with the truth of your candidate your only comeback is to resort to childish name calling. Funny also that those of us who actually think and have chosen a candidate for president based on that rational thought are racists, yet those who vote for obama because of the color of his skin are not. Shame on you.

The philosophy behind it is socialism. "Spread the wealth"
So does that apply when Sarah Palin said those words in Alaska?

ahhhhhhhhh! so typical. You are just spewing the average McCain rhetoric.

Answer my questions people. You have no idea what socialism is. That why you people can't answer my questions I posed.

Show your intelligence.

It's always racism isn't it.

Maybe you have me on ignore. Are you going to answer my questions. Seriously. YOu are making yourself look like a fool. YOu just keep blabbing crap, but can't show us you know one single ounce of what socialism is.

Go read Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations, the foundational text for modern capitalistic economics. Pay attention to the part about self-interest and how it serves society as a whole.

again for nina and findingsomethingsomthingbla

Yeah, true. I want her to answer these questions though that I posted above.

Do you post anything that is actually factual? Do you know anything about socialism? Whats your opinion on the bailout? Is changing the tax structure socialism? Is Obama going to make the government take over all the enterprises in america?

Answer these instead of spewing useless garbage.

Nothing "childish" about it. Every accusation you post against Barack Obama is a flat-out lie. When you have been shown evidence--from reliable sources--to the contrary, you ignore it, and move on to your next lie. You assert that Obama is a "socialist." Even your own candidate admits he is not (as does every single other educated person in the country). You ignore it, and continue to insist that he is. Racism. So transparently racism that your denial is laughable--and tragic. Shame on you, and shame on your party.

That's right...start spewing the racist garbage; however, for you to say people who don't like obama are racists shows very clearly that it is you who is the racist.
