We've been conditioned to think in those terms and the web site is communist. The philosophy of communism isn't so bad, it is the people and application that are the problem. Capitalism works right out of the box then begins to fray and deteriorate - again due to people and application. Either system creates an elite class and poor class with little or no middle ground. Each system is, ultimately, a failure. I'm not advocating either system, both are flawed as long as people can gain and hold power. Somewhere in there is a solution to the problems - I wouldn't presume to know the right course. Our politicians presume to know the right course - but they have no idea what is happening in the real world just their own political world. We have a mix of socialism and capitalism in the US no matter what the government/media hype says it is. Free market capitalism? hardly. -- ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
