From each according to his ability, to each according to his need. I'm talking about world economic and social equality. Don't think I mean any communism so far.

From each according to his ability, to each according to his need. I'm talking about world economic and social equality. Don't think I mean any communism so far. A controlled Capitalism would be a much better idea than Communism. I would set it up so that every person gets necessities. For example, poor people are guaranteed a House, food, water, and an opportunity to monetarily benefit from the free market. However, someone who works through college and acquires an upstanding job and becomes wealthy should be allowed to keep their money for them, aside from taxation that is necessary for the community to thrive. Essentially, a Capitalism with Communistic qualities. With a blatant communism, there's no point in trying to better your social standards considering it's already taken care of for you.

CrabHelmet Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Attention, people arguing over economic systems: Come on, you're God. You can just place the world in a post-scarcity state and eliminate the need for both capitalism and communism simultaneously. EDIT: Unless my power results from other people believing in me. Then... I'd do nothing. Beatrice is' date=' in fact, God![/color'] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T. Sankara Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Apparently man created God. Therfore you are technically God. So why haven't any of you gotten off your asses to do anything yet, instead of thrashing a group of people who believe in a high deity, which you claim to be?

Tell me why space and time couldn't have just always existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So does that mean everything man made does not exist? A better term would be "thought of". Man "thought of" God and "created" the "idea" of God. Some people believed it, some people didn't. Then there are people who have a different view on the "idea" of God. Then, there are even more people who have the "idea" of several Gods. Religion and Gods are all based on "ideas" "created" by man. Thus, like you said, man is kinda like the God of their own Religion because they created and/or believe in the "idea" of their Religion.

This is false, because man also invented pizza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
