I appreciate anarchy,<br> but i am not an anarchist - since I know who I am and cannot be defined so simply. If we look at the common dictionary definition of socialism,<br> we see something like:\n\n> \"Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy.\"\n\nUsually,<br> in my experience,<br> anarcho-capitalists will claim that it is government that has wrecked capitalism and given it a 'bad name' - they will also say that socialism and communism cannot exist without government. The communist\/socialist anarchists often attempt to use the same argument against the capitalists to some extent. LOL\n\nYou are right,<br> anything that is forced is not compassionate. Balance exists only when 'no part or aspect is overpowering any other'. When we understand this and seek balance,<br> it is apparent that the heartlessness that pervades society will quickly use force whenever it sees that it will further it's agenda - regardless of whether it operates through a monarch's crown,<br> a communist dictator or a religious army.\n\n\"the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively \"\n\nIs actually,<br> potentially,<br> a good thing - IF the people are balanced and enlightened. but then it can also be said that the alternative of having private ownership can also be a good thing IF the people are balanced and enlightened. So,<br> yes - what is most needed is real and agile balance\/compassion and not a particular political ideology.",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"life\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.1\" " |
