>Ammunition Sold Out!   - Andy Hoffman - 
VOX:

One final comment on this and I'll let it go. Capitalism does not devolve into an oppressive system if the original idea of our Founding Fathers is followed: government established and limited to the protection of individual liberty from enemies foreign and domestic. And "enemies" defined as those that would use force to either to harm life and seize property rightfully earned.

Unfortunately our government, with its myraid edicts and welfare programs that seize and re-distribute wealth, has become the enemy. But free capitalism is essentially a system of voluntary interaction for goods and services. It may become a 'vampire system' as some have suggested only with the help and force by governments. It can be debated whether such a system with original intent can be maintained or whether it necessary devolves into fascism. What can be said is that the system of free enterprise produces the greatest prosperity for all.

Does Socialism cause deaths? Since socialism is the seizure of individual property, and thus the means of sustaining life itself, for the common good according to the whim of those with the power -- it does cause deaths.This is not to say that governments are all to blame. Big businessmen themselves, who curry favors (bribes), using governments to forcefully block competition, are part of the problem.

Does gun control cause deaths? Certainly depriving individuals of the means of self-protection does cause deaths. And make no mistake, the anti-gunners are typically the above mentioned socialists who need to have their populace disamed to prevent resistance to their thefts. The original impetus for this was my take that Andy thought that Michael Moore was only 'misguided' rather that outright evil. I believe Moore is for the complete disarmament of America. He realizes, as other socialists, that resistance must be crushed before their agendas can be fully implement.

All this can be argued back and forth and other opinions certainly have merit.
