Socialism is a Pie, Capitalism is a Cake!

Let me first butter my bread  by saying that I am a major CAPITALIST!  I believe in Capitalism whole heartily and so should you.  The freedom to own and do with it as you see fit is the economic foundation on which this country was built.  To long has the subversive left taught that capitalism and big business are evil.  It is time to wise up America before we become the Land of The Bound and Home of The Weak!? 


If you are retired, you should be a strong advocate for capitalism, because you made enough money to save for your future.

If you worked for a business that contributed to your retirement on top of what you did, you should be doubly pro-capitalism.  Why, because that business made a profit and they chose to spend it on you!

If you ever had to get unemployment benefits from the loss of a job, you should be pro-capitalism because - yes you paid into it but so did your employer and a bunch of other tax payers.

If you are on disability, you should be pro-capitalism because the more money business and people make, the more tax money their is to fund yours and mine disability!

Let me ask you a question:  Do you think that the ridiculously high salaries that professional sports payers make should be cut with some of that money going to more important things like Teachers, Policemen, Firemen and our Servicemen???  If you answered "Yes" to this question, you have been indoctrinated (brainwashed) towards communism!  That's right, taking from those who have and giving to those who have not is communism.  Besides, sports drives our economy.  Just think of all the different jobs that sports provides from owners, players, builders, vendors, maintenance, all the different media and more!?  Something to think about at least.

Lets talk Pie's and Cake's:

Socialism and communism both teach that their is a "Pie" (only so much) and everybody wants a piece of it.  If you have ever looked at a pie you know they come in single layered tins.  Now if I want a bigger piece, I need to take from someone else, maybe not physically but in order for me to make more, someone else must make less.


Capitalism on the other hand is a Cake (7 layered chocolate for me from Cheese Cake Factory).  Capitalism says that there is enough for every one who is willing to work for it!  There is no ceiling on how much you can make even if you are in competition with someone.  Why, because with cakes all you do to make them bigger is add layers.  No one has a "wedding pie", its a cake and usually as grand as you can afford!

Winston Churchill said: The inherent vice of capitalism is the uneven division of blessings, while the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal division of misery.


You, me, small businesses and big businesses should be able to make as much profit as the market will bear.  More importantly they all should be allowed to spend their profits as they see fit!  The only problem I have and I believe we would all agree is when the greed at the top sacrifices the bottom at someone else's expense.

I am a very simple minded person, my immediate remedy for our economy is to DRILL DRILL DRILL!
