Humans are selfish creatures. They will NEVER be able to produce a "perfect" society. They can brainwash people into thinking that they're living in a perfect world when their life really stinks, or else a group of elite people will enjoy a "perfect" life (until they're assassinated, most likely), but there's no such thing as a society that makes everyone happy. It doesn't matter whether you're a socialist (which basically means you reject your own identity and importance to become part of a nameless group) or a fascist (which basically means that you reject your own identity and become part of a nameless ARMY of brainwashed people) or a hippie who sits around smoking drugs and playing a sitar thinking that the world is, like, you know, just psychadelic, mannn.

It doesn't matter whether you're a socialist (which basically means you reject your own identity and importance to become part of a nameless group) I don't think you have the definition of Socialist right.... Its a person who believes in more government involvement in industry and a larger number of programs that will strengthen communities, not destroy individualism. "Fight for the People, Preserve the Individual" My motto for a DEMOCRATIC Socialist country I made up. It only means slightly more liberal than the government we have now.

he was a fascist, called himself a socialist because back then anyone who wasnt a capitalist was a socialist. they didnt even have the term communism till the 1920's. And he furthered some of the ideas that i agree with, such as more educational programs(though obviously his were a little less than educational) and more government involvment in industry(which is why germany was able to produce enough equipment to outmatch both france and england and take on russia and us at the same time). I'm locking this thread because im getting worked up and im tired of arguing with you about this crap.
