As one who tends to side with true conservatism (financial only), I very much agree with you, Ike. The problem is, Socialism always loses to greed. If there were a means to implement it in a pure sense, I'd welcome it, but the reality is, greed will always dictate we are stuck with a bastardized version of Capitalism or a bastardized version of Socialism.
i see capitalism as 'survival of the fittest'... or, darwinism. We got this far because we implemented that ideology, just like nature does. It really is how you win.
But the problem is, just like in nature, once you win you can easily over use your resources. Species all over the planet have proved this. Once there is too many of one kind, the planet will kick your butt back into submission every time.
So like i said, we did it out of necessity, and that's great, but it's time to stop. It's time to take care of eachother.
I actually do think our government knows this, and thats why we have a mix of socialism... And I also think its why they are trying to create a one-world government, because like you said if we don't then we will always be forced into capitalistic mode just to survive. That whole illuminati conspiracy thing I do think has some truth to it, but from everything I have learned about them they are not necessarily evil... they're trying to do what they know they need to do and that includes sacrifices (wars) along the way.. but once we have unified collaboration, we can shift focus to equality over superiority.
