Eh? Socialist? Where have I ever said that? I think I've pointed out enough times that I for LESS government involvement in the economy, and in our lives.

The only valid point I see you focusing on to base your opinion on is freedom, and I have no idea why.

Ah, but you fail to realize that the only reason I mentioned freedom or 'human rights' was because of your habit to trump China and place them ABOVE the US.

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.

Yes, I like certain parts about the Canadian system, just like I like certain parts about the American system, the Japanese system, etc, etc.
Still don't get what you're saying.

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.

Oh well. Guess my viewpoint is too 'simple.'
That sucks.
