Note also that while many would say that socialsm is defined by state ownership and state planning of the means of productionand economic life, a certain degree of such state ownership and planning is common in economies that would almost universally beconsidered capitalist.
Still, eventoday, socialsm is particularly forthright in advocating direct pursuit of working class interests, even at the expense of whatother ideologies consider the legitimate property rights of the wealthy classes.
Another defect of socialsm, according to its detractors, is its disregard for the role of private property in creatingincentives that foster the sustainable use of resources.

Socialsm means a soceity that works together and shares for one universal cause.
National socialsm as the name indicates is a form of scoialism, and the majority of people on this site are forms of socialsm.
National socialsm is when the people work together for the good of the country, its easier to just think of it as a patriotic form of socialism.

Jan 21 2005, 03:26 PM Ofcourse when people think of national socialism they automaticly think of Hitler, and rightly so, and nazi ofcourse is short for national socialism in German.
Jan 21 2005, 04:52 PM Considering your unique and misinformed view of what "national socialism" is combined with your mention of Stalin and an odd defense of "proper nazis" leads me to believe you have embraced that silly little cult known as the National Bolsheviks.
Jan 21 2005, 07:19 PM If you had read what id said at a 4 year olds mental capacity, you would realise that national socialism is a "united society" that works together for the state.

Socialsm is the "commie" style government controls everything ideal.
Liberalism is actually a form of ideal that rejects the dominance of authority to some extend and tries to protect the liberty of the individual.
Liberalism and socialsm are not connected by anything other than that a high proportion of people who are overtly liberal are also overtly socialist.

Most Republicans would suggest that the problem with giving employees too many benefits is that it discourages bussiness because the price of doing bussiness is higher - but if we solved healthcare that would free up alot of capital.
China has a LOOOONG way to go to catch up to the US - their economy is the fastest growing - along with India - but that is because they are going through an industrial period - when the US went through the Industrial Revolution our economy was growing like that too.
I agree that the US needs more social welfare programs - but I do not think we should have anything on par with the socialist systems in Europe - it is causing them to lose thier competative edge.

It is honed and shaped by experiences and popular struggles of our people at a particular historical epoch.
Socialism is not just an ideal vision located at a distance, the imediate struggles and day today activities of the oppressed majority give rise to socialist block and creates opportunity for socialist forces to build pockets of socialsm in the process of socialist reconstruction.
Therefore, Socialism has never failed in Europe, what has failed are those "socialist forces" to engage capitalist imperialism in its globalized phase.

KLD's new Select Socialsm Index is the first ever created for institutional and retail investors who seek broad diversification and increased exposure to companies with strong sustainability characteristics, such as environmental management, human rights, product quality, and other indicators of good corporate governance and social responsibility.
The Index addresses one of the principal barriers facing socially responsible investment: the reluctance of institutional investors to adopt SRI strategies because of their desire for diversification across the market.
KLD's Domini 400 Social Index is the established benchmark for measuring the impact of social screening on financial performance.

Some even said that they admired Nazism (I believe that Jabotinsky once said that) -- except for Nazism's virulent anti-Semitism.
Remember, Nazism began as a so-called 'National Socialsm' movement, but the Nazis certainly perverted the ostensible meaning, or our common understanding, of the word "socialism".
Fascism [and racism, like with the so-called 'utopian' socialism of the Israeli kibbutzim that were nonetheless "For Jews Only"] was one of the primary political currents of the earlier 20th century -- just as racist imperialism has been even today -- and some Jews were no exception to that political sentiment.

If you are on strike you don't want to go on strike to get a partial set of demands met in some reformist agenda you want all the worker demands met, so fighting to win means get what you want and not settling for a liberal reform.
This was an interesting workshop as the presenters opened up space for others to speak especially on the issue of "Socialism from Below" a horizontal development towards socialism rather then a vertical hierarchical top-down "Socialsm from Above".
Many different tendencies were able to speak including anarcho-communists, eco-anarchists and other interpretations of marxism.

 Interview: Howard Phillips, on the Chuck Baldwin Live radio show [Free Republic]
Howard Phillips is one who would, by all indications, remain faithful to his oath to defend the Constitution if elected president.
He deserves the support of all who want to see our nation's slide towards socialsm and fascism halted and reversed.
Even if he is not elected, your support in him and the Constitution Party, in whatever form, is a show of support for the right cause and a repudiation of those leaders in the GOP who have sold our republic down the river year in and year out, while holding the reigns of political power.

President Hugo Chavez of the Republic of Venezuela, in his brief encounter with Guyanese last week, reignited the clarion call for eliminating social and economic disadvantage in society and re-invoked the view that capitalism and foreign exploitation cannot be the instruments for purging this sustained deprivation among the poor.
And those who outrightly reject the Marxian theory is guilty of this prejudice.

Freeing the market from the right-wing, corporatist socialism that had been in place since the 15th and 16th centuries.
They called it mercantilism then, and it is indistinguishable from modern socialsm, except for who benefits in the short run.
Everyone loses in the long run, though, from state infringement in the free market.

 "If you're a libertarian, how come you're so mean?" | Samizdata.net
In any case, if this Finnish report is the best supporting evidence that can be found, the case for saying sub-Saharan aid works must be slim indeed.
But in any case we already know what does work: it is the abolition of socialsm in favour of capitalism (even in the case of so-called Communist China) and the opening of export markets--which ties in so neatly with the present assault on the entirely socialst and French-inspired EU Common Agricultural Policy.
If the economic and political environmental conditions are right there is no need for aid; private investment will do the job far, far better.
