Socialism vs Capitalism: Which One is Better

[brewster]

I need someone to explain to me how "socialism" is better at being in charge of newborns and breastfeeding.

One or two sentences should do it.

A capitalist will keep all the tits for himself. Goddamn tit-hoarders!

Socialism cares for the helpless dependants... welfare, disabled, elderly...
But alone it does a piss poor job of motivating them to be anything but.
Capitalism is in charge of the motivators and incentives in society.
Socialism is like the nurturing mother who alone will raise unmotivated, dependant fearful children...
The father is charge of discipline and motivation, inspiring courage and risk taking.

This is my metaphor for the marriage of socialism and capitalism...

Raising children isn’t something that lends itself to a 50% failure rate. Capitalism rewards the competent and leaves the incompetent to suck wind, which I’m okay with in most cases, but not with kids.

50% of us don’t seem to recognize this fact.

Socialism is, like about being social, man. It's in the name, and Capitalism has the word capita in it, so capitalism is about stacking heads in piles.

Which should really be a festive, social event so I propose you go with some Socialist Capitalism. Sing some nice, communal head-stacking songs.

You just can't grasp my deep insights. You just need to really think about it.

[Speaker to Animals]

If by really thinking about it, you mean to literally smoke grass and get high off Roundup weed killer, then hard pass.

Did the French have rousing head stacking songs for The Terror? I can see that we should be writing them now, come the time to stack heads we'll be far too busy. Remember Dan's description of a huge pyramid of heads outside the sacked city in China? Not a bad look for DC, Wall Street and Greenwich.

Their national anthem is a head stacking song.
