thank you for your interesting comments, david.
i hope you will keep tuned to these edifying discussions at PEN-L and please
comment on my amateur questions and statements because i like to check them
out with the Left, Center and Right perspectives. part of the learning
process, as they say.
PS. i can't find cyber-forums with a Conservatism or Right (meaning to the
Left of Nazism and Monarchism) perspective at the same level of erudition as
presented in PEN-L.* do they exist? if so, please point them out.
norm
* that is not a paid advertisement.

Subject: [PEN-L:5814] RE: Re: Private Property
Thank you for your many comments to my posts. It is not my intention to get
into an extended debate with any of you about socialism v. capitalism. I
think such a debate is about ends and not means and this forum is not
appropriate for such a debate.
Let me make a suggestion. I am not an economist or any other type of
academician, although I consider myself well read in a general sense. I am
a practicing corporate bankruptcy attorney. (My motto is capitalism without
bankruptcy is like Christianity without hell). I deal with corporations
every day, including putting them out of their misery. I am quite aware of
the "external" effects of private decisions in a very practical sense. Feel
free to take advantage of my perspective if you think it would be helpful to
advance your own understanding.
Take care,
David Shemano
