Have you ever noticed that those who most wish to impose Socialism on the rest of us almost always set themselves in positions of authority, and find ways to game the system so that they get more than their fair share?
When considered at a purely evolutional level socialism makes no sense. There are a wide range of ways we humans can be "fit to survive" - strength, speed, health, intelligence, beauty, work ethic -- even charm.
But if we agree to live under a system designed so that those who are "fittest" to survive are the laziest and most manipulative among us - we'll be completely and utterly screwed.
Be polite, please. (also I'd like to add that I reserve the right to delete any and all comments that I find offensive, argumentative, or just plain tiresome.)

ReplyDeleteB-b-but Socialism has failed before because they didn't have the right people in charge!
