Here you go again, using words that have nothing to do with the
discussion
in progress. Who's telling you to say "communism"? 'Fess up. Who's
coaching
you?




Ah, the man with a million questions is up and about, assigning NG
homework
already.

It was a fair question, Eisboch. I mean, if you decided to try your hand at
making sourdough bread, and your wife said "Don't forget the time you tried
plumbing and flooded the basement", you'd probably wonder how her mind made
that leap. The same thing is happening here. It's a stupid kneejerk reaction
from a person pulling a word outta his ass with no idea what it means or how
it applies to the situation (which it clearly does not).

I don't like communism or socialism, but that's not what this is about.

Your assignment is to write that on the blackboard 100 times.

You trivialize the issue of people being trained to use inflammatory words,
but it's not trivial.

I wonder who said this:

"I always say my real purpose is to attract the largest audience I can, and
hold it for as long as I can, so I can charge confiscatory advertising
rates,"

I thought we established this was Rush. It sure sounds like someone
who understands what "free" broadcasting is all about.
This is a guy who made millions "giving his show away for free".
The same is true of "free" TV and "free" internet services like Yahoo
and Google. You pay every time you buy something they advertise there
in higher prices. Of course Google et al is also a serious threat to
your privacy. If you are "logged in" or accept cookies your inbox is
certain to be stuffed with spam based on everything you ever looked at
on the web. They may also sell your search history to the highest
bidder. Certainly the government has free access to it.

All true, but his statement also explains what his mission is NOT, and his
most rabid devotees do not understand this.

And, what's your brief definition of socialism ?
Explain as if you needed to say it in a short sentence
to a psychology class.
