If you've got public schools paid for by taxpayers, you're in a socialist nation. If you have public roads paid for by taxpayers, socialist nation. If you've got public defense (police, fire, military, coast guard) paid for by tax dollars, socialist nation. If you're in a nation that has nationalized or localized delivery of services that are not paid for by users alone, you're in a socialist nation- the only question is how socialist. As I see it, we pay the military pay to protect the shipping lanes for our fuel needs which makes us very socialist. In a capitalist nation, the people supplying the oil would pay for their own defense force.

If you're in a nation that has nationalized or localized delivery of services that are not paid for by users alone, you're in a socialist nation- the only question is how socialist. As I see it, we pay the military pay to protect the shipping lanes for our fuel needs which makes us very socialist. In a capitalist nation, the people supplying the oil would pay for their own defense force.

St. Augustine was clearly pretty naive.

Light thoughts for a Friday:
Quickly, bring me a beaker of wine, so that I may wet my mind and say something clever.
Aristophanes
Characteristics of a popular politician: a horrible voice, bad breeding, and a vulgar manner.
Aristophanes
Bonus Friday:
A demagogue must be neither an educated nor an honest man; he has to be an ignoramus and a rogue.
