I don't usually comment on PE's posts but here I'll make an exception.
I am not or have ever been either a capitalist or a communist but I will always be proud to call myself a socialist. As a past labour union leader
I have dealt with capitalism at it's highest levels and I believe that it is a necessary force to generate an economy from which we all benefit. However without socialist input and moderation greed would rule and the worker would see little benefit beyond exploitation.
What really puzzles me is right wing religion. It would seem to me that Christ was also a socialist. Be your brothers keeper, cast your bread upon the waters, and that bit about getting the camel through the eye of the needle. No right wing sentiment there!
