What Switzerland has done is created a floor but no ceiling has been made. Your quote is irrelevant to this thread, ironically, it can be used to put the capitalism demonstrated in the USA in a greater context, where faux oligarchs plot to seep the last shred of wealth from the middle class. An ostentatiously wealthy 1 percent hoards 99 of the countries wealth. Great freedom there. A bigger scam than the lottery. YOU TOO CAN BE A PART OF THE ONE PERCENT IF YOU SLAVE AND WORK INSANE AMOUNT OF HOURS FOR 50 YEARS, AMASSING YOUR OVERLORDS EVEN MORE WEALTH, YOU TOO!

i would love to respond to this but it just some fact-less emotional socialist gibberish, all you do in all your posts is whine and then say socialism is the only solution

:what:

I'm not in favor of a completely socialistic nation just like a 100% free market will never be feasible. But for the sake of argument, how is a "socialist" misguided?
Loaded question on these boards :heh:



But anyone who can look at the history of socialism/central planning and think its great is either dumb as f*ck or really, really smart.

I spent some time in Zurich this summer. If anyone can afford to give their citizens that much and still have plenty billions leftover to make it rain, it's the Swiss. Paying 5 francs for one slice of sushi :wow: Never again.

They heard Ayn Rand, Milton Friedman, and Ronald Reagan say it and stopped thinking for themselves.

I don't have to look at the history of Socialism when I live in a failed Capitalist nation.

Capitalism has created the highest standard of living ever known on earth. The evidence is incontrovertible. Yet those who are loudest in proclaiming their desire to eliminate poverty are loudest in denouncing capitalism. :snoop:

That wasn't Capitalism. That was "The New Deal", a socialist program. Of course, socialism and capitalism need each other to work.

Why do 6 out of the top 10 countries with the highest standard of living apply socialism in many of the sectors of their economy?
