If the issue is as easy as you've just described it, why aren't you living only on food and shelter? Why are you posting on CP on your high speed internet connection. Where did you get your education from? It's not all free you know, would you like to give up everything you have right now if a nutjob named Marx jr. came along and told you he can give EVERYONE on this planet the basics, the catch is that everybody would have to live on ONLY the basics?

Fact is, depending in what type of setting/environment you were born into, you will need certain things other than food and shelter to live. If you live in the third world, you will need clean water, food, and shelter. If you live in the developed world, you will need to be literate, at the very least, and that means and education. You will need money, from a job, to pay for food and shelter, means of transportaion, means of communication....etc etc etc etc......


If the issue was as simple as you've just described it everybody would be living in socialist utopia right now instead of just a portion of hypocrites talking about it, no?

:yes:

Well put.
