Two nations divided by a common language, as Bernard Shaw (I think) said - but you get the picture!!

A socialist?? That's one step before communism and we all know how well that turned out.
I think I'm one step left of Genghis Khan, and one of the dozen or so conservatives left in California.
But I'll still listen to your RRT3 advice.

Not really. Socialism is a lot more generous than Communism. Let's consider the ever popular two-cow principle.KevinL wrote:A socialist?? That's one step before communism and we all know how well that turned out.
COMMUNISM Idealogy as a governing system: You have two cows. Give both cows to the government, and they MAY give you some of the milk.
FACISM idealogy as a governing system: You have two cows. You give ALL the milk to the government, and the government sells it for a profit for themselves.
SOCIALISM idealogy as a governing system: You have two cows. Give one cow to your neighbor!
NAZISM as a governing idealogy system: You have two cows. The government shoots you and takes both cows. Communism often does it this way sometimes.
ANARCHISM as a political idealogy system: You have two cows. You keep the two cows. Shoot the government agent and steal another cow from your neighbor.
CAPITALISM as a governing political idealogy: You have two cows. Sell one cow and buy a bull.

Re: Howdy!
What about democracy? You have a vote and it ends in an impasse so you need a study which takes years and by that time the cows are both dead.

Democracy? Isn't that where you and your family vote to steal your neighbour's cows and tell him you're freeing him from oppression?
