Of course, the truth it is always somewhere in the middle oscillating around
a ballance position as required to keep the system stable. More than that,
neither the ballance point is not a foulproof stable position. You must
have the flexibility to slightly change toward left or right based on how
the things evolve over time to correct the ballance.

Yep, yep.

Either unchecked is a failure as we can now see.

Extremes are bad. There is no one size fit all.

Fundamentalism toward an extreme or another was always a sign of a
weak mind.

Well, there are lots of weak minds around, and fundamentalism is
enciting. So pleasant to just know that you've all the right answers.


The wealth that this world has and you have 99% of its
population living in abject poverty. Even the US is headed that way
fast. Kill the Capitalists. Kill the Socialists.

No crimes. Shoting is always bad.
Shrapnel can fly back and injure or kill the shooters.
It happend in Russia in 1917.

Easy driven reforms requested by an educated population are the only way to
go. The only problem is that ...... the biggest force that can be used to
form opinion is the media.

And the media have no interest into educating people because it is in
private hands.

And you think that it would've been more reliable would it have been
in government's hands?:-)
