Azure ... you puzzle me. You keep on fighting this notion that capitalism is the only way to go, i.e. "the best system the world has ever seen" ... yet your views seem predominantly socialist, as far as I can tell. Or am I mistaken here?
I have to wonder (among other wonders) ... do you even know what you are arguing?
The only valid point I see you focusing on to base your opinion on is freedom, and I have no idea why. Isn't this thread about which system has the most efficient economics? And for that, you have to take into consideration things like GDP, jobs, growth, education and knowledge, economic stability, et al for all things economics related.
Additionally, you seem to argue on the side that Canada is the right way to go, without seemingly realizing how conservative and central Canada is compared to the USA.
And that brings me to why I keep wondering how much you really understand about the world ... and no offense because I'm really trying not to pick on you ... but its the judgement I see of so many of western world that their ignorance (with all due respect, not meant to be an insult) leads them to be so scared of something they don't understand that they believe there is one and only one way thats good, and everything else sucks.
