[prreyreyland]

Oh I see you all think Christianity is about socialism. I guess that make Jesus a Communist.

Good video, though I must say that I like Bragg's version of the The Internationale better.

There is no such thing as real communism. Communism is some fairy tale.

Never mind my previous comment during the other video.

yeah the big problem with unions protectionism is that it hurts poor people, as does socialism and communism, free markets helps the poor more than anything else

[CzechShooter]

@zac1bar83 thats very true however difficult for most people to understand...

[tommiespain]

@zac1bar83 How on earth do free markets help the poor? The poor were doing great under Allende's government in Chile. Then, Allende was murdered in his burning palace. Then, Pinochet comes in with the free market and a few hundred thousand people were murdered and imprisoned...so please clarify your point.

[zac1bar83]

@tommiespain free markets allow poor people to use their labor to get ahead, first of Pinochet regime wasn't something good, a dictatorship is socialism at its core, but he did free up trade and he was heavily influenced by the Chicago school of economic thought, which is a reason why Chile thrives today. Minimum wage, tariffs, quotas, etc. make it so poor people consume less and have less opportunity for work, that’s why fee market countries have higher standards of living...hence poor better

[MrRedFredSaid]
