in Let’s face it: We’re socialists! Bank bailouts to proceed on VentureBeat
I think the point is irrelevant when discussing capitalism. Any govt performs social services and to some degree are socialist. The government at times provides beneficial services as int he public sector and for private sector. The government invest heavily in military and research that has lead to commercialization of technology. Think NASA space program as a government program designed to commercialize technology with transistors, mirco waves, and software. NIH and the war on cancer contributed to the biotechnology industry.
The govt with Freddie and Fannie has always implied a guarantee of underlying debt security with full faith of the US Govt. This was designed to ensure affordable loans by reducing risks inherent in issuance of loans. The GI Bill actually lead to the economic growth after WWII across nation by providing education and cheap home ownership. Nothing like having good citizens that own land to become even better constituents under the debt load and private property ownership.
The main difference generally between Republican and Socialist Democrats, Republicans believe business owners contribute more to the economic development of the nation than others' contribute. Republicans want less government involved in their pursuit of capital and profits: regulations and taxes. Republicans want all the benefits and want to share less of the burden due to their contribution under a free and level playing field.
But during times of crisis the government plays an important role for society in providing a stable system and investment for growth. The government is need in times of war and peace. And now, more than ever, the government is needed in times of financial crisis.
I don't think you would find a Republican refusing any assistance form the government that would ensure their family lively hood and retirement (401k). Capitalism can be too tough for the staunch Republicans values and fee market unbearable to stomach as capital disappears from their coffers.

in A VC: This Is A Mistake on A VC
Maybe you should buy a more fuel efficient vehicle. You're a vc and you are driving a car that only gets 20 mpg?
That's a disgrace. You should be ashamed.

Well we drive about 2000 miles per year because we rarely use our car. I think the carbon impact of producing a new car for us is probably greater than the carbon we produce with the 100 gallons of gas we burn in our car

in On becoming vegan: five good reasons on David Orban's Disqus Area
I encourage you, but giving up meat is a lot like giving up smoking. When someone says, "I've stopped smoking." and someone asks them, "For how long?"
If they said, "For four days." Everyone would laugh.
Similarly, 4 days off meat is not long enough to call yourself a vegan.

in Activating Session Restore in Firefox 2 Beta 1 on RED66
Show my windows and tabs from last time doesn't seem to work when the entire system has to restart. Will anything work at that point? At times, Firefox becomes so full up that I have to close, at which point it gives you that "firefox is closing" choose to end now or not. It doesn't seem to save so I tried rebooting the whole computer. Which option will allow the tabs to actually be saved?

in Record labels continue to sucker punch music consumers. Newest copy protected CDs: no MP3s, no Macs, some PCs, some CD/DVD players, some car stereos on Fast&Loud
Rich J Says: The blame rests entirely on the arrogant bastards who have downloaded more music than bought it and/or have no itention of buying it whatsoever.
If those "arrogant bastards" never had any intention of buying anything, what exactly is the RIAA losing?
