Planning to get married in Goa? www.weddingsetcgoa.com Making your 'dream wedding' possible ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Message: 5 Subject: Re: [Goanet] 'COLLECTIVE OWNERSHIP OF THE ECONOMY?' Message-ID: <252117.45342...@web80501.mail.mud.yahoo.com> RecentlyI viewed on TV, this Michael Moore accompanied several white Americans to Cuba for treatement.They were financially bankrupt after paying for huge medical bills, yetsaw no improvement or could not afford the cost of treatement or did not have medical insurance in their country. I was amazed to see the Cuban medical facilities (no wonder Comrad Castro is still alive) and all the sick people were assured free treatement or with a cost of $500. max. This is not an exageration, believe me. One more on collective ownership: The kibbutz (Hebrew word for “communal settlement”) is a unique rural community; a society dedicated to mutual aid and social justice; a socioeconomic system based on the principle of joint ownership of property, equality and cooperation of production, consumption and education; the fulfillment of the idea “from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs”; a home for those who have chosen it. (Is this something like 'Gaunkari'?) Rightwingers too follow this socioeconomic system!!! MD.
