In Reply to: Communist state versus corperate state posted by dave c on February 26, 2000 at 04:32:10:
...and was never meant to be. It is representative republic.The true democracy is one of the most opressive forms of government, something where most of us would not want to live, and luckily don't have to.
I don't think anyone will argue that the US is not perfect, dah as some would say.
Are you talking about the Soviet artists specifically? I am not sure what you mean.
What post-Lenin things are you talking about?
Let go the Reagan joke.
The way you wrote it makes it hard to see your personal position, could you please clarify it?
... the worst form of government except for all the alternatives.He's talking about the modifications to the ideal communist government (not socialism) that were required in order to make them work. The soviets recreated the notorious Jamestown failure on a grand scale. They started with the myopic montra "from everyone according to his/her abilities & to everyone according to his/her need". And, they were wondering why everyone was starving....
Don't mind the poor attempt at humor. It was reminiscent of a time that a reporter questioned her own ability to detect Senator Fred Thompson's honesty. He retorted that he formerly thought himself a professional actor until he went to Washington & discovered that he was a mere ameteur.
