It makes sense to me, I think, so I have nothing to say.

In Soviet Russia, Murkin learns commie!

Maybe.

Just a thought :p

Maybe.

Yes, but why did Jamul delete a message with that reason?

What? He deleted a message with that reason?

Yes, NoFM posted a thread in French, and Jamul deleted it with that as the reason.

Ah...

However, isn't the American government nationalising banks? Sounds pretty commie to me. :p

Indeed. Down with big government interference! (Mostly) Up with state governments deciding issues for themselves! (Mostly)

Anyways, I suppose if Milk Ninja had posted a translation or had simply avoided doing a whole post in French, it wouldn't have been beleted.

ONOS! I'm being spied on! Better talk in code:

"The teapot looks unhappy. It looks even more unhappy than the teddy bear!"

Americans stole bits and pieces from communism. The good bits, mind.

Ideal communism would be a good thing... it's a shame that's impossible in a society that you do not chose to be a member of or that doesn't make sure its members are good people.

Wouldn't forcing people to all be equal be a bad thing?

Explain it to me.

I believe it's basically all people have the same rights and power. Exactly the same. No higher, no lower. Everyone gets equal pay.... Not much room for video games, I don't think...

Everyone gets equal pay

If that's true, then why try to do a good job?

EDIT: Because if you don't, you get shot?

That's the failure of communism; No incentive to do a good job!

Yeah, that's why Anarchy is so much better.

And everybody else in the country gets $.01 richer!

That happens regardless. Pay people for time, they work slowly. Pay them per unit, they work poorly to be faster.

Or pay a base rate, with bonuses based on quality and quantity. Though that requires actually paying attention to what your employees are doing.

That's what firing and business-organized assassinations are for.
