Les asks - *And whom are your anarchists going to base their revolution on?* three answers jumped to mind in the following order: 1 - reformed Russian land owners (self explanitory) 2 - illegal immigrants (as it's a dirty job that most US workers refuse to do) 3 - the newly emerging class - that of human beings (as you say I favor a utopian solution) gonzo - imo 'cancer' better fits as a description of the boom phase of the business cycle

troll sez - "stagnation' might not be such a bad idea for parasites...some might call it sustainable growth" others might call it cancer... and then - "...and save us from proletariat dicks - we've seen where they can take us" Quoted for Truth Excelsior?

but communism is the Path to stagnation...imo until and unless someone can show me a better outline of a Society than the secular covenant of the U.S. Constitution (and intent of the Declaration), i've gotta stand by upholding and defending the olde bit of hemp parchment signed by those wacky Founders it does Require an engaged Citizenry, and that's been lacking since WW2, imo takes time, but the paradigm shift is occurring, as i noted previously around here...the first of those greedy Boomers are applying for Social Security...this silver tsunami will shift the political priorities in the U.S. away from the "Reagonomics" model into something a bit Left of Center speak up, be Involved...and let's see how all of U.S. can work it out and solve some Problems could just be me...

Left? anarchy is the road to communism? This is just utopian. The capitalist class will not go away without being smashed by the dictatrship of the proletariat.

... and if we don't push it back, and ultimately, overthrow it, capitalism will be at odds with democracy.

in the Article it's said - "A retailer should be allowed to succeed based on the votes of people's pocketbooks instead of the ballot box. " why do you hate Democracy? here i had thought that the smallest form of government, a town...should indeed be able to set it's desires via the ballot box and zoning laws in order to maintain control by the Citizens over their immediate environs so which is it..the Right of people to govern themselves...or the "right" of Big Money to do as it pleases with no regards to the Will of the People? i'll side with the Voters every time, but what the hell...i like Liberty your mileage may vary...

I hate Wal-Mart. I come out of there feeling as if I need a bath. Yet I don't hate America. In fact certain parts of it are really rather nice, like Yosemite and Pier 39. This is confusing. Please enlighten me.
