kimbell, I think that some people think topics through only when they have to become directly involved. I'm sure this poster will change his/her mind if personally confronted with the fundamental weaknesses in capitalism, like health care.
You'll see this sort of thing a lot on this and other boards, no matter what the topic is. I'm shocked by what I've read from really nice people on this board about the upcoming election. Their professed beliefs seem entirely out of character.
