Okay, I don't even know where to begin here.


First of all, no one here on the site, myself included, should have any illusions regarding their impact on world issues, at least as related to our efforts on this site.

Second of all, even if we don't make a difference, wouldn't it be nice to engage in informed, reasoned debate on real issues? ...[text shortened]... sleep last night? Girlfriend have you up late?

You've got to do better than this.
OK then. You dissagree on getting rid of capatalism, fair enough, i think its a good idea you clearly don't.

But did you see any of my other suggestions, because I think that they are all valid, reasonalble and practical.

And if you need any more then just ask 😀

The Chinese and Russians agree with him; they have suffered under communist regimes and have rejected them.
Communism is a recipe for making the vast majority of a population equally miserable. The only ones to prosper are the commissars running the tyrany.
You and your Pa are completely out-of-date and out-of-touch with reality.

Well for a start they have become the major 'offshore' manufacturers for Japan. Microsoft has its largest (I think), but at least one of its largest, centres in the world based there, and the entrepreneurs have been given their heads to attract further capitalist business. Have a look on the web for more details.

I know that they've switched from communism to capitalism (skipping the democracy part). The thing is that the choice was made by the somewhat despotic Chinese government; the Chinese population carries on doing what it's told. They are cheap, cheerful and exploitable. Hooray for the Chinese economy.

Three cheers for the exploited. We all dearly hope that they feel warm and proud that we could'nt really do it without them.

Well for a start I don't think that Russia really had true communism.

And don't try and say that China's polotics has any sense. As far as I'm aware families who have more than one child, the second child is taken away, and in many cases shot. And that is no lie.

And me and my "pa" actually have different veiws on Communism.

And if you want to slag off anyone about their "Pa" then slag off Iorek.

FOR ANY ONE WHO HAS NOT SEEN THIS THREAD, THEN GO TO "UNITED 93" AND SEE WHAT A CRY BABY HE REALLY IS!

He needs his dad to hold his hand in a film!! 😲😀😀😀

And as for Capatalism, why have it. It makes the rich richer and the poor poorer.

Capitalism has many faces. Rejecting it for Communism is throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

The 'poor' are very much better off now in all the major capitalist countries that I know of than they were,say, 50 years ago let alone 100 years ago.
Communism is a recipe for making everyone, bar the rulers, poorer.

No communism, on paper, (I say this because many countries have abused it) makes everyone have the same amount of income. so the rich get poorer and the poor get richer.

There is enough wealth in this world for EVERYONE to have a £2600 slary, which is enough.

And I'm sure the rich will all gladly give up their money in the interest of fairness. 🙄
