Miranda, if you don't want a challenge on your ideas of what something in THEORY means, then don't write in those fora. Lol. Jaakko is a man in his twenties and a moderator there (and he aint old or dumb either). Why don't you ask him why he sticks to such an old and obsolete and useless political philosophy? After all he is intelligent and young? See what he says? I would like to see you do that Miranda. If you don't....then my theory that you don't like people questioning your theories and proposals stands. Jaakko belongs to the Communist Party of Finland. Lol. There are Australian socialists, and many many others of all kinds. There are all kinds of people there, some Communists, some Socialists, some Capitalists and Conservative. Some anarchists, and etc. Variety. The spice of life is variety, and good political debates. The Communists and Socialists are from all over the world. So are the more conservative among them.

Reality? You think Capitalism is not real? Of course it is real. As real as being dead as a doornail if you are damn poor and don't have money for an operation and your life is worth nothing because you live in poverty in a third world country and no one gives a damn if you live or die....because that is the ugly reality of it all. Life in this present system is not FAIR at all Miranda. Does that mean we give up and become total and complete cynics looking to Cover Our Own Rear Ends first?...and to hell with the next person? That is the easy thing to do. It always has been. What is hard is trying to struggle for something that hasn't been tried before, and just might work after all, but only if enough people put in the sweat equity, and are truly dedicated. It is hard, and it is tough. But hey, what have you got to lose but your chains?

Who are the Puerto Ricans? The richest nation on Earth? Of the second class citizen kind? Inferior to others and other peoples? Or are we human beings first and foremost with all the creative energy and beauty, and variety and potential that the word HUMAN means to all of us? Then don't sell our potential and capacity short. And be true to who we are and all will align in the way it has been waiting to do, but not allowed, due to too much interferences by those with less than good intentions towards us. Remember that dicho TipoConSuerte put a thread in open board about? The Road to Hell is paved with Good Intentions. The only intentions that are good are the ones in which self determination is involved. The other intentions are not good. They just aren't.

The rants are usually from the ones who want me to back the system I live in and hate the idea I don't agree to say it is great and good. I won't. It sucks and is bad. So? Others disagree. That is ok. To each their own path must be done.....always. To thine own selves be true.

Go ahead and rant on with your idea of being nationalistic, and pro-capitalism, and competition. All that to me leads to perdition Miranda. That is where I stand. And I got a right to think that way. How you think is your right. Y ya!
