:: Yes, but too damn bad if that happens; if the workers want to follow tehse guys, they mjust be able. The freedom to choose one's ideology and political leaders is a basic human right, and as such it trumps the question of what economisc system would be best.

Well said, Nik. When I am denigrated for supporting capitalism because, as it is proffered, I am seeking only my own self interest, I rarely reply with the depth of feeling that I hold for freedom. Calls for armed revolution are only calls to usurp democracy. Isn't it obvious
that there is no eglitarian component to this?
