I know mozilla is already uber-bloated, but perl embeded in mozilla would kick some serious ass !! They'd have to design some kind of sandbox but I think some work has already been done in that area (Penguin anyone?). --
I've looked at it, it's EXACTLY like LISP except they replaced the parentheses with curly brackets just to say that it isn't LISP. Looks like everyone is trying to avoid to look to lispish these days. I wonder why. --
Linus declares : "OS X kicks ass, Mach is a superior architecture, Linux has a lot of catch up to do, heck, why not switch right away, I find the dalmatian iMac particulary tempting since I started smoking crack" --
The problem with capitalism is that it gives an obscene amount of resource to a very small minority of people and those people aren't particulary clever or innovative, they're just incredibly lucky and/or greedy. To see what rich people do with their money is what convinced me of that. Anyway all that argument is not really important to me since I really don't want stupid people to be poor either, I mean we are always someone else's dork, I believe in fair sharing of resources and equal opportunity of hapiness for all, and as it stands right now, capitalism just doesn't cut it. --
Alanis won't go there totally naked like she usually does, as I understand the US congress is full of old perverts that are married to ugly old facelifted, silicon injected wifes.
For whatever is left of American democracy, that would not be pretty.
"Someone who is enslaved to another person is limited in their ability to make decisions in the market, therefore slavery is *not* acceptable."
When you don't possess your mean of production, you are a slave ( especially if you abolish minimum wage).
"Here again is the will of the majority at work, something that in your socialist enviroment is perfectely acceptable"
Happy to see an American that can accept the fact that democracy and socialism can go hand in hand.
"I personally don't care how I'm viewed, I definately have a different outlook on life than everyone else. Especially different than those in the majority of this country."
Funny, you sound like a typical American to me...
So go ahead, you abolish the income tax, the minimum wage, medicare, welfare, you get more money in your pocket, and then what?
Capitalist Utopia is no better than Communist Utopia.
USA , a socialist country? lol! You remind me of Trotsky saying that the USSR had become a capitalistic country. The only reason welfare and social security don't work in your country is because you people don't believe in them so you don't invest in them. There are things that we call "society choices", those thing are expensive but depending on your value they may be worth it. If your social values are a strong army and a tax cut for the rich, wellfare seems like a waste of money, but for me a multi-billion space shield is a waste of money, descent lifes for millions of people is not.
Really maybe I don't understand a thing about economy but ther real reason I am not a captalist is that I don't like the idea of filthy rich people existing next to people that don't even own there own life. I know you Americans don't know that thing called 'guilt' but I can't help but to feel it. Maybe I should take a pill, maybe you have a pill for this, hey, you have a pill for everything. --
