Pure socialism will not work. Pure communism will not work. Pure capitalism will not work. None of these things has proven to be the answer. None of them will be, on the whole, fair to everyone.The people who would most espouse the system of socialism, should they grasp it's concept, then bitch about it when, as is always the case with socialism, it becasme clear that we're not ants in a colony. No workee no payee is more effective than no workee still payee when we all participate.
