    Socialism is cyanide and capitalism is cookies. The former will kill you instantly, the second one long-term (diabetes etc.) – what we’re looking for is fruit and vegetables, but for now I’m more than glad to eat some cookies.

      Frankly, the problem with socialism (and with anything else, for that matter) is that it takes one high-up enough asshole to ruin things for everyone.

      Then again, I have little-to-no proposals to counter your argument, so I guess it’s back to cookies and diabetes for us
