Like I said mate..true socialism is a fantastic Ideal..If I thought for one minute, it would work in practice, I would grab my Broadsword and lead the charge at Westminster!..really I would!!
But Socialism in it's true sense, would only work if we were all Ants!...there would, in a very short space of time, be fat cats at the top, taking advantage of everyone else!..it's simple Greed...Humans do greed extremely well...and If I had the choice of becoming a fat cat..or living on a breadline, like all my 'Brothers'..I know what I would chose! (and I can guess which you would chose too Si)
I know that Capitalism is as far from ideal as it's possible to get...I don't even begin to pretend to have any answers that will move mankind forward, for the good of all..
Whatever it is, Human Beings are going to have to change VERY significantly, or NO political ideal will be any better than another.
Still waiting to hear about the Job, thanks for asking
