Subject: In Europe, liberal and conservative seem to mean the opposite of what they do here. "Socialism" has been so distorted that its meaning is no longer understood by those who speak or hear the term. In fact, socialism is closer to what is now called "capitalism." Strange indeed. What we call capitalism has been getting closer to "state capitalism" year by year. But what's in a name?
In reply to: Chris Henry 's message, "In contrast, Chirac occupies a similar part of the political spectrum to Bush. To quote Dick Morris of "The Hill", "Chirac is a man of the right. Elected by a coalition of Gaullists and neo-Gaullists, he has always cast himself as the adversary of socialism and the apostle of free markets". It's a complicated world when socialists support a war on Iraq and conservatives oppose it!" on 07:32:55 04/21/03 Mon
