Please kindly Calm down Commandomatt !! Its friggen freezing outside with ice and snow. Nothing to do in this weather but surf porn or post here on the VOA site.
Besides, this is relevant because
1) we are debating what is better for the Viper car long term.... socialism or capitalism, in that which system benefits sales better....
2) We are not wasting bandwidth because the more traffic here and the more posts here, the easier it is to sell advertisements on this site to raise money for the VOA ( by showing traffic volume to advertisers) which ultimately benefits the VOA.
3) Chrysler is in a Capitalistic government, and Fiat is in a socialistic government. The merger of the two is relevant to this discussion in that how will the corporation operate within the two different systems.
see..... its ALL relevant

You ask the question like the two systems are mutually exclusive. The fact of the matter is most governments (including the US) operate somewhere between the two. Pure systems are destined to fail as they succumb to their shortcomings. Having a blend of the two is the only way to succeed. Exactly where one sits on the socialism/capitalism scale is open for debate.

Capitalism. Really, after the last 5 years do I need to explain why? LOL
A video who celebrates a president who doubled the national debt with government spending is curious at best But using grades to illustrate how socialism works is perhaps the most ridiculous thing imaginable.

Remember, when you are socialist, you are not taking something from from someone, but instead just giving something to yourself. ( not a misprint... just read slowly again)
Socialism at its best = Greece today. ( Where is my government check for hanging out ??.....and said with arrogant entitlement !!)
The only difference between socialism and communism is that
1) Socialism takes longer to fail as a system as opposed to Communism. Both systems will fail eventually and both advocate non-production and are anti ambition but socialism takes longer to kill its economy. Communism only takes 50-75 years before it implodes. Socialism takes around 100 to 150 years ( or 2 to 3 generations of no ambition) , whereas Communism only takes one generation of people suppressed beyond hope to collapse. Communism is a heart attack. Socialism is cancer that slowly eats away and kills the economy.
2) socialism tolerates religion. Communism does not.
Any other questions about world economics, marketing, strippers, divorce, Lie-yers, penis enlargement, or gardening just let me know. I am glad to help where I can.

Capitalism because you should have to earn your way in life.
Not socialism because it is unsustainable. What do you do when you run out of everybody elses money?

TWO COWS ~{Matthias Varga}
SOCIALISM
You have 2 cows.
You give one to your neighbour
COMMUNISM
You have 2 cows.
The State takes both and gives you some milk
FASCISM
You have 2 cows.
The State takes both and sells you some milk
NAZISM
You have 2 cows.
The State takes both and shoots you
BUREAUCRATISM
You have 2 cows.
The State takes both, shoots one, milks the other, and then
throws the milk away
TRADITIONAL CAPITALISM
You have two cows.
You sell one and buy a bull.
Your herd multiplies, and the economy
grows.
You sell them and retire on the income
ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND (VENTURE) CAPITALISM
You have two cows.
You sell three of them to your publicly listed company, using letters of credit opened by
your brother-in-law at the bank, then execute a debt/equity swap with an associated general offer so that you get all four cows back, with a tax exemption
for five cows.
The milk rights of the six cows are transferred via an intermediary to a Cayman Island Company secretly owned by the majority shareholder who sells the rights to all seven cows back to your listed company.
The annual report says the company owns eight cows, with an option on one more. You sell one cow to buy a new president of the United States , leaving you with nine cows. No balance sheet provided with the release.
The public then buys your bull.
SURREALISM
You have two giraffes.
The government requires you to take harmonica lessons.
AN AMERICAN CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You sell one, and force the other to
produce the milk of four cows.
Later, you hire a consultant to analyse why
the cow has dropped dead.
A GREEK CORPORATION
You have two cows. You borrow lots of euros to build barns, milking sheds, hay stores, feed sheds,
dairies, cold stores, abattoir, cheese unit and packing sheds.
You still only have two cows.
A FRENCH CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You go on strike, organise a riot, and block the roads, because you want three
cows.
A JAPANESE CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of an ordinary cow and produce
twenty times the milk.
You then create a clever cow cartoon image called a Cowkimona and
market it worldwide.
AN ITALIAN CORPORATION
You have two cows,
but you don't know where they are.
You decide to have lunch.
A SWISS CORPORATION
You have 5000 cows. None of them belong to you.
You charge the owners for storing them.
A CHINESE CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You have 300 people milking them.
You claim that you have full employment, and high bovine productivity.
You arrest the newsman who reported the real situation.
AN INDIAN CORPORATION
You have two cows.
You worship them.
A BRITISH CORPORATION
You have two cows.
Both are mad.
AN IRAQI CORPORATION
Everyone thinks you have lots of cows.
You tell them that you have none.
No-one believes you, so they bomb the ** out of you and invade your country.
You still have no cows, but at least you are now a Democracy.
AN AUSTRALIAN CORPORATION
You have two cows.
Business seems pretty good.
You close the office and go for a few beers to celebrate.
A NEW ZEALAND CORPORATION
You have two cows.
The one on the left looks very attractive...

They won't be solved.Republicans don't have the balls because the media shreds them and they only want to be liked and get invited to cocktail parties while the country goes down the toilet. Tea Party type people are hated by the Republican establishment and have a hard time getting backing.
I am encouraged that Howard Stern won't vote democratic. I hope he just won't vote. He and the many other talking heads on TV and the radio are exactly what is wrong with the country. They all, from all sides, want their own way and have forgotten that compromise and moving the country forward is what we should be doing - not trying to stake out a unilateral position beneficial only to their interests.
