OK so, since we mentioned the whole issue of socialism in central america, let me ask you guys something. If a country had estabilished a communist regime and yet, with no dictatorship, with the power concentrated on people's hands, and no problems to the people, would it be OK for any foreign troops to invade it and force a capitalist regime? I'm not saying it happened! I'm just asking that so I can understand your point of view of what's justifiable for an intervention.


I would have no problem co-existing in that situation if it were actually possible. But it's not. In order for true socialism to work the people have to fall in line meaning they must give up everything for "redistribution". No likely.

For the record...there are plenty of countries out there with economic systems other than communism that the US has issues with, so we're not picking on communist nations in particular.
