Re: [Biofuel] Kids Opt for Kerry-socialism?
Hi, I'm having difficulty finding information that details what countries have capitalist, communist or socialist economies, can anyone help? Lately I have been reading many proclamations that most of the world is socialist. Whenever they write or speak further it becomes evident they are confusing social programs with, socialism as an economy.

Re: [Biofuel] Kids Opt for Kerry-socialism?
Thanks Doug. I know of no country in modern civilization that has successfully changed to (Lenin and Trotsky's view of) socialism. The reason why is a whole other discussion. However, you could find some good examples in early 20th century Detroit Michigan. I'd only like to add that from an environmentalists point of view, I could see (the theory of) socialism to be a friendlier alternative.

Re: [Biofuel] Kids Opt for Kerry-socialism?
H, I am not sure what is the difference between the semantics ( meaning, essence) of the statement and the spirit of the statement. Could you elaborate a bit here? In my humble opinion, this statement only sounds nicely, making it a good slogan, but it is empty/broken in essence ... Again I am lost, what is the spirit of this statement? let me show you again how this statement is broken: WHO gets to decide what each person is able to do, and what are his/her needs? IF it is the person himself, the system tends to gravitate to the state, where: each one evaluates his abilities at MIN (meaning they do not produce much for the system) each one evaluates his needs at MAX (trying to exploit system to get maximum from it) This leads to broken system where there is not enough goods produced everyone lives poorly, chronic shortage of basic goods, even soap and toilet paper :) Former USSR knows this path very well. IF it is some other person, who decides, what people are able to do and what are their needs, the system tends to gravitate to the state, where: people abilities are evaluated at MAX (meaning lots of work requested from people, compulsory work in extreme cases) people needs are evaluated at MIN (even basic needs are thrown out in extreme cases) This leads to a slippery path of the bureaucratic governing, planned economy, compulsory work, compulsory work camps Again, the former USSR knows this path very well. I do not know of any method, which _fairly_ evaluates people's abilities and needs. Of course, if one finds third, better method, the argument may change, but untill then we are stuck with one of the above options, and these lead to UGLY consequences.

Re: [Biofuel] Kids Opt for Kerry-socialism?
Tom, From Websters dictionary - semantics: The study of meanings spirit: Temper or disposition of mind For example, H doesn't carry as much specific meaning as it does an expression of sarcasm. If this doesn't clear things up, well, I think I'd like to change the subject because being mired in the semantics of this exchange is now occupying too much of my time. If you would like me to concede to some argument that has developed from this exchange -- then, so be it. For the sake of the folks on this list, I'm moving on.
