Hey Jorge. You spend a LOT of time on various fora discussing BitCoin. Must be like a full time job almost.

How can you afford to do that, plus make a living?

My question would be more - Why bother?

I dedicate my time to things I enjoy & have belief in.



My point exactly.

So why DOES he dedicate so much time to something he doesn't believe in?

I spend about half of my life on pro-socialist forums like hitlerpraise.com and stalinforums.com talking about how ridiculous they all are and that their ideal of everyone making the same pay for different levels of work will never succeed. I do it for the children.
A lot can be said about the Soviet Union, but they were the ones who rid Europe of the fascists. You equating fascism with socialism is not just stupid, but insulting to the millions who died and the millions who lost a family member in the fight against fascism.

Technically, he's correct. Those fascists were socialists:
"Nazism (/ˈnaːtsɪzᵊm/ or National Socialism in full[1] (German: Nationalsozialismus), was the ideology and practice of the German Nazi Party and state."--wikipee

Capitalist expansionist running-dog pig wins, albeit on a technicality Cheesy




It's actually not just a technicality.  National Socialists really were socialists - not only in name.  They apparently took the 'Nationalism' more seriously than the 'Socialism', but they were, nonetheless, actual socialists.

For example, in Hitler's Germany, all German citizens were guaranteed a job by the government.  All German citizens were entitled to an education at government expense.  Healthcare was not totally socialized, but was heavily subsidized by the government.  Etc., etc., etc.  Sounds reasonably socialist to me.
