What?  Seriously, what??!

Whatever definition of Socialism you have in mind, must be so broad that it captures everything but your preferred 'ideal'.  Which isn't really a useful definition at all.

OK, so everyone who has extolled the virtues of the Free Market, who didn't work a regular job should be ignored as well, as well as any other economist who has just been an economist. I always find it amusing people who dismiss some ideas as just being from "intellectuals" who have "never worked a day in their lives" then quoting other intellectuals to support their view

Dumb argument, but I'll bite.  *I'VE* worked real productive jobs for 20 years, so I therefore do get to comment.  That more time working "real jobs" than Mises, Hayek or Friedman...

I didn't quote Marx.  Show me which of Marx's quotes or words I used.  I'm not even a Marxist.
