"Communism never got a chance to really become what its inventors desired becuase of greedy corrupt officals who took over to maintain their own power over that of their rivals (IE Stalin and Mao) ."
Hardly! It became EXACTLY what the inventors desired. All "good socialists" and "good communists" know better than the common folk how the people ought to live, what to do, where to work. That's what "government" is for...to dictate to all people how to live, what to do. Allow their "betters" to rule them and enjoy the fruits of the people's labor. The only time it was tried in this country was during the first years of the Plymouth Colony. They almost starved to death because the universal truth rang out -if you have confiscate the products of labor of the ones who work and give it to the ones who won't, the workers will sit down. "Who is John Galt?"
"The statistics also show that with an increase in personal liberties that allow people to feel free to leave behind the trappings of organzied religious doctrine and yet still retain individualized faith, adopting what the wish for their own personal ethos and excluding those more fundamentalists stances that corrupt religious officals have all too often used to keep people controled through fear of retribution in the next life and manipulation towards social exclussion of minorities in the past."
There are lies, damn lies and statistics. Those who live according to what statistics predict will live in fantasy. And likely starve to death!
"Regulating big business is simply nessesary, they should imho be restricted from being able to make a money based influence over politicans that cuases a severe imbalance between the ability of individual voters to influnce, IE in a system where money drives political movements no real equality for individuals can exist. Equal political influence of One vote, one person is only an illussion if large corperations and the wealthy are allowed to basically buy off politicans and public servants at will as they do here in the US and other places."
Protection of the populace to prevent "companies too big to fail" is advisable. To suggest that all politicians and all jurists are functioning under the influence of bribery brings a recommendation that someone should sue to recover their tuitions. Apparently the socialist "educational" (i.e. brainwashing) system has been way too effective.
