Economics #1

Michael Moore said a handful of interesting things, most of which I disagree with. First off, he states that socialism is democracy, is Christianity, is Buddhism, and is every other different religion because in the end he believe all religions are exactly the same. Uh I don't think so! I don't even how he can even begin to argue that statement, because there are many distinctions that differentiate each religion from each other. This claim was rather frustrating how ignorant he is to the different religions. As a Christian I do not worship Allah or Buddha or believe in evolution or anything else that a Christian does not believe in. However, I do see a small validity to his point in that all people have the same sinful nature despite their religion, that causes the rich to take 9 slices of pie for themselves and leave the last piece for other to fight over. Socialism on the other hand, suggests that we all should divide the pie equally despite any social difference. This would mean that everyone would make the same amount of money and reap the same benefit whether you are a well educated lawyer or janitor. Not fair at all. Sure it may seem like it is "for the common good" but it would cause more destruction than reparation as people would become less passionate about pursuing well needed and prominent careers that are needed to help society run smoothly and successfully.
