So, you think Socialism will be any better? I think not, it has some
good points, but they get buried quickly along with anyone who stands in it's
way. You can elect to change your boss or landlord by finding a new job or a
new place to live. If we hold referendums on the price of bread, cars,
lodging, etc no one will have any motivation to improve anything, because
they will get the same price for a 3,200 sq ft really nice house as they
would for a 800 sq ft apartment. No one would have any incentive to work
harder to get ahead because they would get paid the same as one who does
nothing.
I spent two years of my life in Turkey and it is much different than
here, you don't see the military "guarding" the streets with automatic
weapons or patrolling the beach on horseback with automatic weapons. We
still have some freedoms left which we need to defend and somehow try to get
back the ones we've lost.
