It would appear [stay with me on this point please] that there is a "critical mass " point of gravy train population that can cause socialism to continue, however, in every case to date in history, that "point" is only a temporary sliding event that happens before the working people [who produce the capital necessary to support the funding and credit the whole house of cards is balanced on] stop producing. They simply quit, or die, or leave.
History is a cruel teacher, but an exacting one. To refute this argument please give a list of self sustaining socialist civilizations that have survived on their own merits? It is a basic law of nature. You don't work, you starve and die. The Bible says, in pertinent part, "Even the sparrow shall not want" .... however, a careful study will show that no where does it say, "God will put the food in the sparrows mouth".. even that sparrow must go work for it's food. Socialism, however, doesn't believe in God, it believes it IS god. So it believes it has no need to follow the rule of nature. Let me know how that works out... ha.
