The entire conjob community is forced to CONSTANTLY change it's tune - thread to thread, and post to post - on the definition of socialism, for this simple reason: THEIR MIND-CONTROL SITES ARE CHANGING THE DEFINITION EVERY TIME A SOCIALIST COUNTRY KICKS A CAPITALIST COUNTRY'S ***.

Your defintion? Regulation = socialism. His? There's no such thing as socialism, if there are any private property rights in a country.Str8tEdge » 19 Jul 2014 2:53 am » wrote: Basically, any country with private property rights is not socialist, *******.

The last I saw, you were using a definition by which every country on Heritage's list is socialist.
The two definitions I cited aren't conflicting. They are two means to the same goal; control of the private sector either through seizure, purchase or regulation.You have used multiple conflicting definitions, and made up at least one out of whole cloth - my challenge of which resulted in you posting the definition above.

Ranked.
According to you, and based on facts not in evidence. On which definition of socialism do you base that claim? Capitalism regulates market control to state sanctioned oligarchs with official imprimaturs and the various privileges attendant thereto. How is undefined socialism less free?RichClem » 19 Jul 2014 8:02 am » wrote:Meaning in rough practical terms, it goes from relatively Communist to relatively Socialist to relatively Free Market.
Now they ALL lack definition - yet you insist on making definitive statements, and calling any who dare disagree moonbats?RichClem » 19 Jul 2014 7:52 am » wrote:Because there is no strict definition of any of those terms, the ranking cannot be exact.

Yes, and you assume from facts not in evidence that socialism - which doesn't even have a definition anymore, according to you - is "less free." On what do you base that, the word having no precise meaning?
The fact that there are variants, that no system is pure doesn't refute my obvious point that government controlling a sector via ownership or government micromanaging a sector via regulation achieve essentially the same goal.TWO, you preposterous little man?

We agree upon the primary definition. On the basis of nothing you reject the secondary definition I cited.
Then lie about my claims regarding regulation. No, moderate regulation doesn't make a country Socialist.
But when, for example, thousands of pages of law and 10's of thousands of pages of regulation micromanage a sector as Obamacare does, that law has obviously Socialized that sector.
The fact that there are variants, that no system is pure doesn't refute my obvious point that government controlling a sector via ownership or government micromanaging a sector via regulation achieve essentially the same goal.
Government control.
Duuuh.

I posted their ranking, stupid. The number two country has a government that owns 30% of the means of production. Before Heritage told you to think otherwise, that was known as "socialism."
Since retard ronnie and his successors gutting regulations led to a predictable melt down, you **** idiot.
