[Roland99]

bumper sticker on the back of a 10 year-old Camaro with tinted windows (where the tint was peeling) I saw on the way to work today.


Willful ignorance on display.


But, hey, maybe he's right. I mean, Wall St bonuses are being cut so the rich are suffering so badly right now.





Oh wait......

2. You Don't Know Which Model of Socialism the Driver Had in Mind

Could have been the Soviets or the Swedes.

Or the driver may not have grasped the distinction.

[JHB]

3. I'd put money on the latter, except...

...I'd also strongly doubt the driver ever made the effort to "grasp".

[Roland99]

4. Oh, I'm sure he grasps something alright

;)

8. That's What a Lot of Rhetoric Depends on IMO,

It usually turns out to be a semantic thing.

Socialism = Soviet Union, when the proposals are more like Western Europe.

6. Neocons have no problem trading with china

Neocons have no problem trading with china or making money from it. But yeah anything that benefits themselves is fine. Neocons and religion addicts make for a good hypocrites. Newt, sanford et al

10. Would that contrast against:

Capitalism: Trickle-down Poverty

I'm just trying to understand the words in their context.
