Debate your views on which type of economy would work best, and which ones lead to the destruction of society and corruption of minds.

Capitalism: Leads to exploitation of workers and people sleeping with each other and killing each other for jobs. Not too much of a fan of this one.

Communism: This one has a terrible rep. However, I consider myself mostly a communist because I agree with most everything they're saying. And for the record, communism doesn't equal Stalin, and Hitler is not a communist.

Socialism: : D WE LIKE THE SOCIALISM! Seriously, if we were a socialist country, things would be better. Really.

Fascism: I'm not even going to touch this one.

Anarchism: If you're twelve years old and wear Tripp pants because you listen to Avril Lavigne and like "that red A with the circle around it that looks so punk" then I hope you die a very painful death.

SWEDEN HAS THE BEST ECONOMY OF ANY COUNTRY. HERE IS WHY:

Sweden's important industries and such are controlled by the government, but everything else can be privately owned. Healthcare and education are taken care of for you. What's not to love?

Death is the shared fate of all man...



When it comes to economy, its all about greed, money, and being on top in most forms.... Which often leads to war, poverty, and crack-head hobos... So I have no idea what would work....I think socialism wins though....



...other than those who accept its inevitability

Absolutely. Who said, "If men were angels, we wouldn't need governments."? That was Jefferson, right? Yeah, I think. Anyway, he's right. And socialism comes out on top.

~Just a second....



Canada almost has that, but the raise in taxes, and the amount that the health care actaully covers, has made it not really exist, although, we did have it for a bit....

Also, apparently EVERYONE, even illegal immigrants gets free health care in France...

I hate it when they say that it's discriminatory to call illegal immigrants illegal immigrants.


The worst type of economy is Michigan's. You know why?
Taxes are so high that people are moving out to other states to avoid them, meaning all the businesses and everything, which means they actually get less revenue by having high taxes. So you know what they do in response to these low revenues due to high taxes? Raise taxes! That's exactly what they do. And it's sickening.

It is! And now Michigan's economy is friggin DIEING. All the businesses are moving out of state or just shutting down, and the rest of us have increasinly less money with which to spend upon businesses, and the businesses that remain are being taxed like hell as well. But since a lot of the population and businesses have been moving out of the state, they're recieving LESS revenue because they're driving us all out of the state.

The DUMB thing is that either this past weekend or the weekend before that, they RAISED taxes AGAIN!! AND THREW SOME MORE IN, AS WELL!! Pretty soon, we're gonna be tax'd 10 dollars just for the transferring of moneys each time we do so. And 20 dollars for smoking in a public place.

So now we don't have good healthcare because my dad's business is struggling with taxes and doesn't really have enough to pay the workers GOOD healthcare ((or maybe it's because they're giving the ******** CEO a MILLION dollar raise >[ wink ), so I just better not get hit by a car or break my spine anytime soon, or else I'm gonna be a ******** vegetable for the rest of my life. And be a genious nerd guy like Steven Hawking. Which'd I guess be cool to be that intelligent, but at the same time I prolly wouldn't be very pretty lookin. And I might not be quite as intelligent, so I just might be a thing there, river of drool flowing out of my mouth. Sexy.

Ok guys, you'd sacrifice yourdignity and free will to a government just for a country? For a clump of land declared by human kind in which they build their society upon? I'd rather keep my rights and choices than giving them to a government to make the right decisions for me. Look at the Democrats. They want to help the ones who can't do anything for themselves so they just tax the ones with more money. And that doesn't even work because the poor people who are saving money just spend it on useless junk. Is that what I would want my taxes going to? No. As far as "best for the individual" goes, I only believe the fact we make our decisions, and if you made a stupid choice and end up in some government housing and expect me to pay for your mistake, I don't think so. And if we were a socialism that's how they would "balance" out the things. And if you hate that, why are you going to socialism? Have you taken a look at your political scale yet? Socialism is the second to last farthest on the political scale, and the farther you leave the center of the scale, the more chaos and deaths enter our world. This country would go into a huge civil war! We are the ones to make the decisions, a free economy is the best economy. You make the decisions in what you do in life, not someone else. I'd move to England or Canada if America ever became a Socialism, that'd be pure chaos.

Lol; I'd prolly move REALLY south where there isn't such bitter cold. But my dad has real good job security and either my first 2 years of college are free thanks to the fact that my mom works in the school district, or all of my college tuition is paid off because of this one fullride scholorship my school gets to give to a senior majoring in art who's really really good. Heck, I'm only a freshman and my art teacher says that if I was a senior, she'd give it to me right then and there at this level, and if I keep progressing at the pace I am, heck, I'ma get that no problem =D
