Haha, I was joking about "Go socialism" I had to lighten up my post so I said that. I am not actually in support of socialism, merely a joke. I do sincerely think capitalism is destroying our world though.

Liberal is the only way our world will survive. Liberal is for the future, new ideas, change. Everything is always changing, so why would you want to keep horrible ideal from people stuck in the past like Ron Paul and some other conservatives? I like Ron for some of his ideas, but disagree on the majority. Capitalism is destroying our planet.


Go socialism!

No.

Liberal towards social issues will always trump conservative towards social issues, but liberal towards economics will always fail by nature.

Also, socialism will only ever work if the entire planet is under socialist structures, otherwise there will be too much money incentive to not at least deal with capitalists.

Human nature is touched with greed, so unless you plan to convince everyone that they should rethink how possession and ownership works, you will never see a true socialistic society.

No extreme system will work anyway. Hybrid systems are much more sound.

I absolutely agree it will never happen.

Like the argument is "it only works if everyone is on board" ...why can't everyone get on board so it works?

I obviously know the answer, but it still is kind of annoying, imo

Maybe this is why I have grown more apathetic towards politics over the last few months.
