    compassionate sonservatism or socialism?

    Communists throughout history have hated socialists more than any other political group, because socialism does NOT lead to communism.

    Moreover, why do people equate fascism and communism? they're at completely different ends of the political spectrum. The only similarity they share is that they usually result in dictatorship.

    It's not the same thing people.

    i'd say they're at the same end of the so called left/right paradigm that didn't exist a hundred years ago.

    i'd say the real spectrum is dictatorship on one side (socialism, fascism, communism, any method of control that centalizes power and wealth), and anarchy on the other side.

    total government control to no government control. there is no left/right. it was taught by the big universities that the elite foundations and corporations set up to sell us dictatorship, but to give us 2 flavors of it.

    they always get what they want passed, they just sell it to either side. the passing of the federal reserve act utilized this divide and conquer method. the writer of it even pretended to be against it, and then was for the version that passed, even though it was identical.

    a constitutional republic is as close as you can get to anarchy, but with a rule of law, separation of powers and checks and balances.

    as you socialize the wealth, you get communism and fascism, which work together. it's going on all over the country.

    the toll road scam here in austin, as well as all over the country, is a good example of a mix of communism and fascism.

    the national sales tax that's going to force all businesses to have the computer where we all swipe our cards is another example of fascism and communism at work.

    total federal regulation of businesses and a national sales tax. look out for that in the future as well, as well as the national id card you'll have to swipe.

    You know, I think I understand what you're trying to say, but you really need to learn what the big words mean cause you're really screwing them all up.

    FYI, the left/right paradigm you mention has been around for over 200 years, not less than 100 years ago. The terms were coined during the French Revolution when the more socialist-like (Marx hadn't written anything yet, but you get the idea) republican (not like the party, but the philosophy) people sat on the left side of parliament, while the loyalists/conservatives sat on the right side.

    I couldnt care less what you think piss. As soon as you say negative shit about socialism i assume you to be a stupid american. I just tune you out, like when you start talking about the one world government. We need a one world government, it will do america some good to have a counter balance to its power. And maybe they will even take away your gun too.
    You are a nut, i dont see how anyone cant not laugh when you talk about the concentration camps you are 100 per cent positive are coming.

    I guess you're right essentially right, but I'm a stickler for using the right terms
