socialism is a dying art....if anyone has any good ideas, please inform me, but socialism has proven failure. Taxation without representation is still aparant in many parts of Europe.

socialism a dying art? that's a foolish statement. significant chunks of the world are full-blown socialist (China, Vietnam), while most other countries have certain parts of their economies socialized (European and South American nations, esp.). Russia is going back to socialism.

Globalization is forcing capitalism down everyone's throats, integrating the world, economically, legally, technologically (a good thing, imo). Globalization empowers individuals, the masses, while dissolving tribalism, much like socialism. At some point, these empowered individuals will realize that wealth and resources need to be distributed equally, if everyone is to survive. Gobal capitalism is a step toward global socialization.
