    No, he was a genociding, power-crazy tyrant, more than anything else, I'd say.

    Oh yes, Mao was a philosopher, just like Marx. In fact, Mao's communist policy was about as close to Marx as there's ever been. I consider that more than sufficient reason to call him a raving lunatic.

    Hey, Marxism is good... In Theory.

    To practice is a whole other story... (Though Castro seems to have done a fascistlicious good job... though I suppose when you're under the rule of a Fascist leader there is little room to disagree with their methods.)

    So I would agree that Mao is a lunatic, but more so because he tried to place such an ideal theory to practice and that's where everyone goes wrong. When will people learn that the inherent nature of man demands he be engaged in the most frivolous of activities, such as making money... and to make money there must be class dividents. There will always be those who want more than others, and they'll get what they want because they can. It's this kind of cognitive & subliminal psychology that has dictated man since the dawn of his intelligence.

    There needs to be something that satisifies (or atleast shutsup) everyone; from the pine nut, communist hippies to the Bible thumping, conservative Desprate Housewives. So. going back to the "the advantage of monopolitical system" I state again that this is why different oppinions and arguing are the advantage of a polypolitical system... It ensures that only actions that benefit everyone will occur.

    And to the question whether it was "better to keep inflation low or job employment high..." I said it was more important to control inflation because if inflation gets out of hand you end up having major debt and an inevidable depression will occur in the economy. Thus inflation affects the job market more directly and in a way that is hard to recover.
