Not really true. Every government that has ever existed has socialism as a part of it, we're no different. Our military is socialism, our highways are socialism, our power structure is socialism. Socialism is no different than capitalism in that it has to be regulated to keep the citizens free of tyranny.
An important thing that people have to remember no matter what sort of government they have is that everyone on this planet was born with unalienable rights. Its not your government that grants hem to you. Government can only inhibit those rights not grant them. SO you have to be very careful about socialism and capitalism for this reason. This has all come about because we are supposed to have a representative form of government. We elect these people to represent us the voters. The problem is they don't represent voters they represent the special interests that got them elected and so our civil rights are slowly disappearing.
The revolution will hopefully scare the shit out of our elected leaders and they will go back to serving the people they are supposed to serve. I highly recommend, no matter what party you belong to, to vote for anyone but the incumbents. They are career crooks and not likely to change.
killerweed420 Reviewed by killerweed420 on . It's time to Occupy! I'm interested to see how many people on this forum support this Occupy Movement and how many sheeple that don't. As for myself I support the idea's that are flowing around within this movement. As a matter of fact I plan on going to Occupy: Phoenix on the 16th to get some coverage of the peaceful protest that will be going on. So far to my knowledge I know of a few major Occupy Movements that are going around our country. New York, Chicago, Los Angles California, Texas and a few cities Rating: 5
