Politics   2 / 7
Capitalism/Socialism

A capitalist is someone who selfishly wants more than others. A socialist is someone who selfishly doesn't want others to have more than himself.

 

Socialism

Spiritual wisdom must come before any social structure can be effective. Without spiritual wisdom there can be no true concern for others; any social structure will inevitably degenerate into power struggles among beaurocrats, with the members of the public doing their best to insulate themselves.

Socialism is a worthy goal, but if the public are not interested you cannot force it on them from above - not without straying from socialism.
