Steve....unlike you, my views on social issuse are not determined by what any political grouping thinks.
I do not consider myself to be "homophobic"...whatever meaning you wish to invest in the word.

GSS.....My definition of "socialism" would almost certainly be very different from either yours or Steve's......however, Communism is a leap of faith...often misplaced..

I do not believe that Capitalism, the cyclical "prosperity" and materialism that it engenders are good for humanity.
At the end of the cycle it produces idiots, vultures and human refuse.
