Wow! Another great Ted presentation. Really interesting!

Yes but still in wikipedia the really good articles still came from a specific person who had deep knowledge of the subject. I think the real gains here come from the freedom that comes from the destruction of beaureaucracy. It's not magic and it's dangerous to make the assumption that consensus is truth since in certain cases (scientific) one piece of hard evidence is worth more than any number of uninformed opinions about a topic.

You think socialism means government control. Read up on it.
cromicus (Sunday 1st of June 2008 12:40:09 PM)
No, I think socialism means lack of government control. But good try.
Derek0783 (Thursday 10th of July 2008 11:25:48 PM)
umm...in economics, socialism means government control of the means of production...can I mock you by saying, "BUT GOOD TRY"....
bobbooty (Friday 25th of July 2008 06:54:51 PM)
Wrong, socialism means WORKER control of the means of production. Look it up.
Derek0783 (Friday 25th of July 2008 09:13:55 PM)
so you'd classify yourself as a libertarian socialist....against capitalism and government regulation....wow....sounds like a polygomist commune world...lol...but hey, to each his own right....i prefer capitalism and government regulation...i think it's necessary...only thing i'm against is goverment manipulation...or capitalistic manipulation for that matter too...but i think our country's system is okay...that's me personally....
