Advocates of capitalism are very apt to appeal to the sacred principles of liberty, which are embodied in one maxim: The fortunate must not be restrained in the exercise of tyranny over the unfortunate. Bertrand Russell
I asked: how could America be the Home of the Brave and the Land of the Free when Americans have always been, at their best, the leader of capitalism via the sacred principles of liberty in world history? Poch Suzara

If America is not really the home of the brave and the land of the free, how come communist countries had to build walls to keep its citizens from leaving, and the US has to build fences to prevent people from entering?
Ken, communism build walls to keep the evils of capitalism out. She failed because evils of capitalism is a stronger force than the evils of communism. Indeed, in the history of war bettwen good verses evil - it has turned out to be a war between evil against evil and evil always won. Poch Suzara
So you believe in evil now? For there to be evil, you have to presuppose the existence of good. To distinguish between good and evil, you need to have moral laws. Moral laws presuppose a moral lawgiver. Without moral laws, there are no good nor evil. The evils of communism and capitalism are really not evils at all, but just the preferences of Poch, just like he prefers a certain flavor of ice cream.
Evolution. If you are subjective of Time and Evolution with your own eyes, then your perception is just subject to it's boundaries. If such universal reasons of intention there are, there are.
That's profound, Anon. There are, there are?
