To you Americans, your view on politics.

(sarcasm) Brilliant! Let's employ everyone in the country in the military! That will stop unemployment right there! (/sarcasm)

Come on, guys, you know better then this.

It's an example of a finely-tuned communism that works with high efficiency.
Quit your sarcastic bickering, and dish me out some actual evidence besides butthurt sarcasm when this point is a thorn in the side to your Economic principles of why Capitalism is #1 and Communism is #NONE.

The fanboy bit is getting old.

My point was that the military only works because there's a massive infusion of cash from the outside, capitalist economy. The army is not a model for society - it generates no wealth. Also, I would highly disagree with the notion of the military as "efficient" in economic terms - have you seen some of the expenditures?

Ask Russia how well a "communist" military fairs in a communist society.

It's a damn shame but I'm getting tired of reading puerile insults. Especially from those on "my side" of the argument. This thread is now closed.
