And so does every single government. And, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. In the American context, calling one “socialism” is nothing less them hypocrisy… whether a (pretty lame, no pun intended) presidential nominee says so, or a plumber.ZoolishFri, 17 Oct 2008 11:51:12 -0000http://rogelsview.disqus.com/my_kind_of_a_plumber/#comment-3136677Might have been a valid point, had it not been framed in such partisan circumstances. But, the political spin on wealth distribution is plain biased. Both sides of the political spectrum redistibute wealth to a similar (large) extent. There's nothing more voluntary in the republican economic plans than in the democrats ones. And vice versa.ZoolishFri, 17 Oct 2008 17:49:58 -0000http://rogelsview.disqus.com/my_kind_of_a_plumber/#comment-3173646They definitely might face electoral defeat. But, I choose to contribute that to candidate choice and not really to representation (or lack of) of economic alternatives. Let’s face it, in direct candidate election, the appeal (or lack of) of the candidate at hand (usually) plays a larger role than his (so called) policies. If the Republicans lose, it will be because their sales representative just isn’t bringing in any buyers…ZoolishMon, 20 Oct 2008 15:48:39 -0000
