My point of contention has always been that if we know the system won't work, why waste the resources trying to achieve it? Instead, work the current system to make it as equitable as possible while maintaining individual liberties.

Looks like Sage and Ric have both sides of this argument well under control, which leaves me to add what seems to have become my catch phrase when discussing politics - it all comes down to human nature, and human nature sucks.
In short, it would be great if we could all get along and share, but we can't, so we won't.

this does seem logical to me. Although I disagree with Jedisage on how to "work the system"
