Speaking of Twitter, the Downed Warbirds twitter feed is being taken down by it's owner because of too much flak because of all the swastikas on pics of german planes.

Too bad, I enjoy watching his feed.

Were not there yet... but he starts talking about the Jewish influx into Russia when he talks about Catherine the Great annexing portions of Poland.

Will do brother.

I heard this recently, can't remember the source, but it really sums up the Nazi - Commie thing well.

Fascism is National Socialism
Communism is International Socialism

The brevity of that explains the difference so damn well.

It's good.

Socialism fails when it tries to take control of an economy.
Whether nationally or internationally.

As a moderating force socialism can be a net good rather than a net evil... but only with Capitalism in the driver's seat.

Capitalism wears the pants (rewarding effort and entrepreneurship), Socialism stays in the kitchen (making sure that the sick and frail are cared for)...

That's my short form for success.

Socialism works for lots of things but we just don't call it socialism where it works. Socialists are at least honest in admitting where capitalism might work to some degree, whereas pro-capitalist people are loathed to admit where socialism works.

I wouldn't mind socializing the utility companies, for example. There cannot possibly be any competition there, so profit translates to nothing more than inefficiencies and lack of innovation. Then, if we ever want to do anything positive with the grid, like retool a coalfire plant to burn natural gas, tax payers have to pay for it anyway, so fuck it. Might as well have a state utility company at at that point.

Derpa a lerpa sherpa derp.

Socialism works great at the local, and voluntary, level. Sign my country ass up if you have a good deal.
