I should have realized from your prior posts that you have no conception of history whatsoever. Hell, and you come from the general area of Genghis Khan and Mao Ze-dong.

No, I am a capitalist. I am smart and I am getting an education.

To claim "thats how things have always seemed" with regard to a desire to destoy those around someone, and then to try and back that up by saying "havent you read any history" is almost funny.
A newsflash: History did not start 5-10 thousand years ago. The history of humans for >99% if their existance, is nothing like you assume 'human nature' to be. Our current situation is an anomoly which is having, and will continue to have until it is destroyed (and even then many of the most dangerous by products will continue doing harm), horrible effects on the rest of life in the world, including the lives of most humans.
I agree, a study of history can be very useful, its a shame most people only read the last page

Technically it did. History means written & oral records of our past. The period before records were kept is pre-history. The general gist of your comment, however, is correct.
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

Our current situation isn't an "anomaly", it's a natural progression of human affairs.
Re: How do you raise a child to be a Good Communist?
Originally posted by JohnT
The point is that children are greedy, needful things who don't like to be thwarted. But Communism is all about the denial of personal wants and the unacceptability of private property, programs your child will not care for. Loudly. Vocally. For years.
If you think that Sophie is naturally greedy you should stop and ask yourself why she understands the word 'mine.' It's true that children have a natural survival instinct and that the concept of getting what you want through cooperation takes longer to understand than just grabbing what you need, but what you failed to realize is that Sophie was really looking to you to show hear what acceptable behavior is. And yes, I understand that she is only 2, and when they are that age you just give them the menu or whatever. The point is that children are socialized. They aren't born perfect citizens. They have to be taught how to get their needs met in the society that they live in whether it's a communist society or a capitalist society. After all, she has to learn that it's not acceptable to take the salt from the restaurant in both types of societies right?
And my answer to your question about raising good communists is to create a children's show staring commie kittens.
