    Mild Socialism can be good, as can a mild form of Capitalism. Going to extremes (i.e, the regimes described above) never does any good, nor does it last for very long. Communism sounds like a very, very bad idea to me. I sure as hell wouldn't want to live in a Communist country. I like being free too much.
    But Communism isnt a opressive regime. How can it be opressive if the people are in power? It's the description of the ultimate democracy.

    Capitalism has one major consequence: it doesn't guarantee success. In a free society, the economic success is based solely on the ability and motivation of individual people.
    "Justice" is the virtue of neither giving nor accepting the unearned. Just as justice is so important in the legal system, it is equally important in the economic sphere.
    To succeed under Capitalism you must get your hands dirty. Such as what the us has done. Why would you have Capitailism in which only a few countries succeed while under Communism everyone succeeds? It's a win win situation for anyone at middle class and under.
    Charity,
    Charity doesnt help, it's just a Capitailist scam to make the upper class look good. It only works temporarally. "If you give a man a fish he'll eat for a day, if you teach him how to fish the fish market will go bankrupt."


    parents, get rich before you get the education,
    Whats the possibility of that ever happing? Especially in third world countries. Heck you cant do it in the united state's unless you won the lottery.
    invest in healthcare programs (Or get them from your employer.),
    But not alot of countries have such policy's. Such as African and South east Asian countries. But South America has FREE healthcare for everyone ever since Socialism rolled in.

    don't be a retard when you get paid (Ie save your money up in case this happens.), and work hard to better yourself.
    So basically starve yourself to get a education? Alot of people dont recieve enough money to get education. Education is very expensive, you know? And people need somewhere to eat and live they cant just save their money.

    To iterate the first couple of points: You won't find a Libertarian among us who has any problem with helping other people. We object to it being forced. We do not object to assisting people who actually need and, as we personally decide, deserve help.
    Libertarian=Conservative same thing. It's not right to force your idealogies on other people who dont want it. That's how wars are caused.
