If you ever have a hard time figuring out who the good guys are and who the bad guys are, just look at whom your government targets. If the government targets someone, they are the good guys. If the government leaves them be, they are the bad guys. It is really quite simple. It took me 58 years to figure that out.

Yeah I had a 10 MB hard drive in my 286 back in around 1988. It was also about 5 times the physical size of today’s full size drives. A lot has changed in just 25 years!

240 slots x 3 TB gives 720 TB, but usable space with RAID5 would be 665 TB

Yessssssss. I have about 5TB at home… so 720TB kind of blows my mind in a super happy way.

And now I’m just going to sit here and daydream about what it would be like to have that much storage at home… and if I’d ever be able to fill it… mmm… 720TB…

In a proper communist country (only failed communist countries exist at this point, primarily because of failure to implement safeguards against devolution to dictatorship), good-hearted intelligent, peaceful people work together to produce a system in which everyone’s needs are met.
A proper communist country would allow humans to advance to the next level of consciousness. A level of consciousness where things like greed a violence simply don’t exist.

A proper fascist country, however, is just plain hell.
Fascism is the preferred system of heartless assholes everywhere.

There are three types of reality

1) The way things appear to be
2) The way you would like them to be (your own delusion)
3) The way things really are (realism)

Which category do you fall in ?

@yourname:

“Agreed. Greed Ruins what could be a Great idea.”

Greed is bred into us; it is instinctual.

Communism and Socialism fail because they do not take the fundamental spirit of man into account.

They may look wonderful on paper, or from some far-distant ivory tower, but the truth of the matter is that they are some of the most dehumanizing ideas ever put into practice.

Robin Hood didn’t “steal from the rich and give to the needy.”

The original story is basically that the king was away (held ransom or some such), and the sheriff took the opportunity to steal from the people in order to live a fat life. Enter Robin Hood, who took the sheriff’s ill-gotten gains, and returned it to it’s rightful owners: The people.

In short, the government steals from the people and Robin Hood repossess the people’s money so that he can return it to them.
