There IS NO SUCH THING as "kinder, gentler capitalism. Stop lying to youself and admit it. You're a greedy scumbag.

Capitalism is the belief that free men in free exchange of privately owned resources (including especially themselves) will result in prosperity, peace and more freedom. Authoritarianism (of which corporatism, communism, fascism, socialism, progressivism, etc. are branches, some more virulent than others), holds that men must be forced to be free, that ownership of self and resources is a crime, and that the hierarchs are justified in killing anyone who believes differently. Remember - when a law is passed, it's with the firm understanding that anyone who refuses to obey it is worth killing. Therefore, more laws means more reasons for the state to kill, or to use the threat of death. to enforce it. Kurt
