    The United Food and Commercial Workers Union.

    The third largest U.S. labor union, the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW), had 1.3 million members as of 2002. It represents workers in the food industry, namely those who work in supermarkets, food processing plants and packinghouses.

    My buddy is in that union. I was in it at some point when I worked in a supermarket.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    Me too.....I would have never known. People were about money and getting the hell out of work. Not sticking round to get political.

    That's just it though. Some of their higher ups might be ideological sorts but most members are either kids or apolitical adults.

    That's a private union, not public. Nothing wrong with private unions. Totally different. They compete with non union workers in the private sector.

    Yeah but if the ideaology is Communism what does it matter if they are private. I didnt find it on Medved sites so I punched up the 3 largest union as thats what they said. though now you have me thinking this might not be the one. Maybe they meant public.

    I'm trying to get my head around the argument. By this standard, capitalism and democracy would equally fall into these categories.

    Hitler, in particular, used democratic institutions to obtain power.
    Capitalism also promised people happiness. However it has to be inherently imbalanced, or you would have socialism. Which means it's happiness for some and back-breaking labour for most.
    “A 'civilization' that makes such a ridiculous fuss about alleged 'war crimes' - acts of violence against the actual or potential enemies of one's cause - and tolerates slaughterhouses and vivisection laboratories, and circuses and the fur industry (infliction of pain upon creatures that can never be for or against any cause), does not deserve to live.”

    How's that? What is capitalism to promise something? It's not a theory like socialism. It's a social institution that emerges naturally from the voluntary exchange of goods and services by individuals.

    All economic systems are theories in practice. Simply because we are refusing to try socialism as a theory (at least in the West), doesn't mean it's a less viable economic system. The most common reason it has failed is because of military intervention from places like the US.

    And there is a difference between bartering and capitalism. One requires symbolic/theoretical credit/currency. The other requires direct exchange of goods. One is much more natural. The other is more coerced.
