It's a GREAT definition. Basically, any country with private property rights is not socialist, *******.

So you are standing AGAINST your own recent definitions - AGAIN. :rolleyes:

Man, this gay **** never ends. Every **** post, these clowns are making up a whole new definition.

Here was Glory Hole's recent suggestion for a proper definition of socialism (emphasis his own, not mine),:
socialism
Syllabification: so·cial·ism
Pronunciation: /ˈsōSHəˌlizəm

noun
1A political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.
http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/us/de ... /socialism
By that standard, there are very, very few nations - if any - which are not socialist.

The entire conjob community is forced to CONSTANTLY change it's tune - thread to thread, and post to post - on the definition of socialism, for this simple reason: THEIR MIND-CONTROL SITES ARE CHANGING THE DEFINITION EVERY TIME A SOCIALIST COUNTRY KICKS A CAPITALIST COUNTRY'S ***.

Oops.

**** morons - they couldn't tell the truth to Jesus' face.

Gosh, I want to address Socialism as 1) secondarily defined in one prestigious dictionary and as actual Socialists themselves have applied it in the real world?

Outrageous!

To a psychotic. :clap:

Really? Where? When?

The last I saw, you were using a definition by which every country on Heritage's list is socialist. Here's that definition is, emphasis YOURS:
socialism
Syllabification: so·cial·ism
Pronunciation: /ˈsōSHəˌlizəm

noun
1A political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.

You have used multiple conflicting definitions, and made up at least one out of whole cloth - my challenge of which resulted in you posting the definition above.

When Heritage finally let's you know what to parrot, get back to us, kid. This much is for sure: The easiest way to have Heritage and their shills stop calling you socialist, is to manage your state-planned economy well.

Here, let's juxtapose what one of you morons recently claimed as a definition, with whatever you are currently claiming in this ten minute time frame, clem:

Your defintion? Regulation = socialism. His? There's no such thing as socialism, if there are any private property rights in a country.

You girls have a meeting, huh? I mean, it's amusing, y'all being walking lob generators. But it grows tiresome, you mediocre spewbot.

Here's a hint, troll. Countries are ranked from freest to least free.

Ranked.

Meaning in rough practical terms, it goes from relatively Communist to relatively Socialist to relatively Free Market.

Because there is no strict definition of any of those terms, the ranking cannot be exact.

But for real world discussion, it serves quite well.

But you don't live in the real world and distort anything and everything to fit your psychosis. It's stupid and/or blatantly dishonest to call countries that rank among the freest "Socialist."

They are among the least Socialist.
You have used multiple conflicting definitions, and made up at least one out of whole cloth - my challenge of which resulted in you posting the definition above.
The two definitions I cited aren't conflicting. They are two means to the same goal; control of the private sector either through seizure, purchase or regulation.

Yes, and you assume from facts not in evidence that socialism - which doesn't even have a definition anymore, according to you - is "less free." On what do you base that, the word having no precise meaning?

According to you, and based on facts not in evidence. On which definition of socialism do you base that claim? Capitalism regulates market control to state sanctioned oligarchs with official imprimaturs and the various privileges attendant thereto. How is undefined socialism less free?

Now they ALL lack definition - yet you insist on making definitive statements, and calling any who dare disagree moonbats?

Little if anything in politics has a precise meaning, yet reasonable people manage to debate it.

We agree upon the primary definition. On the basis of nothing you reject the secondary definition I cited.

Then lie about my claims regarding regulation. No, moderate regulation doesn't make a country Socialist.

But when, for example, thousands of pages of law and 10's of thousands of pages of regulation micromanage a sector as Obamacare does, that law has obviously Socialized that sector.

The fact that there are variants, that no system is pure doesn't refute my obvious point that government controlling a sector via ownership or government micromanaging a sector via regulation achieve essentially the same goal.

Government control.

So, what Richclem is saying is that we shouldn't trust the academic work of professional historians about historical issues-such as economic history. Instead, we ought to trust Richclem and the fine, unbiased "experts" at the National Review or Wall Street Journal opinion page. :rofl:

Historians talking about historical issues? Utter nonsense! :die:

The topic was Economics, moonbat.

When is the last time a liberal didn't bungle Economics?

Say, speaking of, how's that roaring Obama Economy with its glorious 12% real unemployment rate? :\

And who says liberal Academics aren't biased?

I posted their ranking, stupid. The number two country has a government that owns 30% of the means of production. Before Heritage told you to think otherwise, that was known as "socialism."


Since retard ronnie and his successors gutting regulations led to a predictable melt down, you **** idiot.

My my my. Such name calling and lying to boot. Ronald fixed the Carter stagflation and gave us a booming economy by reducing the overall taxes especially income tax.

To set the record straight there are currently 750,000 pages of regulations with a 1000 page index. Only a very big company can afford to hire enough lawyers to keep them in line with them. A small business has no hope. A government team of regulation specilaists could walk into any small business, investigate a little, and shut them down.
