nope, socialism is not a government, socialism is technical anarchy, anarchy comes from an archo, meaning no leader, thus no government.
Anarchy is a form of government, fool. It is the form of governing oneself without political interference.
-automated in the sense that people no longer have to mix the sauces or weld the joints on cars, that is all done by machines. Of course machines need to be manned, they need oil changes and guys to turn them on, but only that. Then the guy can go sit in an office, chat to people on the internet, read a paper, go for a walk in the local park, anything he wants, but in capitalism, he can’t.
A lot of the time people don't do that now. Machines already do a lot of the work. But people still need to man them - to fix them, oil them, etc, like you said, but also to make them work. Most machines don't do the entire job by themselves, someone pushes buttons and crap.

And that's decided by....the people? Too bureaucratic. The committees? Giving them too much power. The representatives? Again, too much power.
-how about society?
Dictionary.com - Society - The totality of social relationships among humans.
In other words - the people which, if you look up about an inch, I already covered. Next!
If we lost money, the class system, national borders, armies, corporations, bosses, about a 1000 useless jobs, famines, warfare, RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY, i think the world would be a much better world, and it is actually an achieveable aim as well
First, I capitalized "religious bigotry" on my own. That's where i'm making my point.
So now, instead of just revolutionizing the economic and political system, you're also going to mess with everyone's religious beliefs too? You can't stop religious bigotry without stopping religion, and religion has been aroudn much longer than capitalism. But if you want to play God, that's your problem.
I never said that Capitalism was perfect. In my discussion with gm (You know, the PPV one I yielded that it wasn't. I'm simply saying basically what Elfie said. We have a decent system here. It's not perfect, it has holes, but there's no need to go all the way back to square one. There're ways to fix it now, so long as we have the intelligent people doing it.
