United Kingdom :
THE SOCIALIST PARTY strives to establish a radical democracy that places people’s lives under their own control — a non-racist, classless, feminist, socialist society in which people cooperate at work, at home, and in the community.

The problem is that it is too idealistic and in practicality it doesn’t hold good...

Here is what is wrong with socialism:

Read: The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression

USSR: 20 million deaths * China: 65 million deaths * Vietnam: 1 million deaths * North Korea: 2 million deaths * Cambodia: 2 million deaths * Eastern Europe: 1 million deaths * Latin America: 150,000 deaths * Africa: 1.7 million deaths * Afghanistan: 1.5 million deaths * Communist movements or parties not in power: about 10,000 deaths

Nearly 100 million deaths. Not casualties of war, but civilian slaughter. Deaths in gulags and concentration camps. Deaths from a bullet to the head. Most of all, deaths by starvation - the result either of planned famines, meted out as punishment to internal foes (as in Stalin’s USSR), or unintended consequences of central policy.

I can’t believe that people are still asking the question and debating it!!

However, to pacify sterile argument, here’s something I read once (I think it was said by a French political essayist)..

”If you’re not a socialist at 20 yrs old, you have no compassion, but if you are a socialist at 40 years old, you have no intelligence”.

Good evening to you all...

It is hard to open responses on the original page of the US Board, which stipulates some re-submissions, perhaps.

Back to a source, any comprehensive article on a political topic hardly substantiates issues highlighted without reviews on achieved already.

Perhaps, V. Lenin, J. Stalin, Mao Tse Dong, Pol Pot are still among the most noticeable fuhrers then claiming a liberation of working people in countries ruled by “Das Kapital” ultimate admirers.

”Wisdom begins with accepting of the reality” that what, like it or not to, stipulated later working class ideologists to declare local surroundings as ”socialism, a first phase of communism”.

Factually, it was a far cry from described with this article of, for instance, promises for freedom of associations, et al.

However, exporting working places to a ”developing world” while leaving serving a coffee to each other as a major employment luck for own people, questionably stabilises individual opportunities because even the most bright university theories are just theories if not materialised locally, stop short of more grounding financial issues recent state-governed free market developments exemplify.
