Particularly since poor people are demonstrably "richer" in capitalist societies?

Because it's proponents are more interested in tearing everyone down to the same level than building everyone up.

Why are you so obsessed with socialists? I mean if you're so confident in your beliefs why are you obsessing? It's like if you're so sure that capitalism is so much better then focus on that instead of always obsessing about socialists.

That ideology is born of emotion.

That emotion is envy.

Their true belief is not founded in the collective for the greater good otherwise they would be donating and contributing voluntarily and leading the way without government enforcement.

This ideology is intended to punish success and those they envy.

But why would you need to? Empirical evidence proves capitalism is vastly superior to socialism in raising the poor out of poverty.

So now it's just fun to beat up on how stupid socialists are....at least the ones who are stupid...as opposed to the smart ones who want to enact socialism to advance their own political power.

Because they’re dangerous and we have a lot of stupid people in the world, it’s like why we focus on cancer, you can’t just promote a healthy lifestyle. You have to fight disease too.

Socialist (democratics) are not that smart as a whole. They do however know how to fool the masses.

Fool enough people, you will get Socialism. Obama fooled us with his “hope and. change”. We cannot afford to be fooled again.

I don't think I'm going to even downvote your posts anymore.

You provide way way too much entertainment after you have spent your night drinking away.

"For there is a way that seemeth right unto man, but the end thereof is destruction" (Good Book). Equality...a very morally appealing idea, to up and coming spiritual creatures.

You got a better explanation, Cpt.?

The most poor and desperate areas of Detroit and Appalachia are paradise compared to the shanty towns of Nairobi, Bangladesh, Mumbai, etc.
