It's weird that had to be mentioned. What is the world coming to?
I want to start an "I hate the FCC" website. What an absolutely money-hungry bunch of socialist bastards.
...
At least it's free. That's all that matters to me

i want you to calm down right now

im liking this idea. now consumers have VERY little to say they were not aware of fees from any company! ๐
...
Free = "money-hungry"?
...
FCC= Money hungry government organization.
I was surprised the website was free.

Is there something wrong with socialism? ๐คจ
...
Only if you want a chance at keeping the money you work for, an economy to stay out of the toilet and personal freedoms such as property rights, the right to work where you choose, the ability and motivation to create a business and profit from it etc...
Do you really think we would have the technology we have today if no one where motivated by the desire to become wealthy?

confusing socialism with communism
...
The only difference between socialism and communism is the political aspect of the two. While they are both nearly ideologically identical one tries to maintain a guarantee of collective property ownership through a central means and the other tries to maintain it through a more spread out social mentality. (pretty much on the "honor system")
While there are some minor aspects of both systems that may differ, the; "I think you confused the two systems" rebuttal is a little long in the tooth. Reminds me a little of high school lol.
like I said on another post, I'm not very good at explaining things like this without being mildly offensive, but one resource I know of is Mises.org or you can google "The philosophy of liberty" vid...

I thought socialism wasn't all that bad, I thought capitalism was the big evil of the government. Just means that the rich stay rich while they keep everyone else below them and nobody is equal. I might have to disagree with you unless you can explain a little better what you mean by socialist bastards.

Great post mikelrysk! I agree with you 100%. ๐
...
There are a lot of reasons to be extremely wary of socialism, I wish I were good enough with words [read: less offensive when I talk, lol] to explain it here, but I can mostly just recommend reading materials.
Mises.org
or, check out "The philosophy of liberty" on YouTube. It's a little boring, but only lasts 8 minutes and explains a LOT.
