...guy, or misunderstood? We know his ideas were wrong in many ways, but do you believe that he was a genuinely bad person, or just misinformed on what would be the best course for them to take economically?
Jim - I'm not sure that it is wrong in ideology, but it had conclusively been proven wrong in practicality.

Hey, I do not hate his ideas, I just think that:

1) They are not practical.
2) They are not conducive to growth.

I am not claiming absolute correctness on these assertions; I am just saying that this is what has been observed. Economic laws have been observed and have not been contradicted as of yet.

If there can be a better society, I am all for it. I just think that capitalism has more pros than cons.

Correct me.
 
I don't think he was a bad person... I think he truly believed his ideas were the best course of action. I don't think they would have worked, but I think for the most part he was sincere.
 
He had carbuncles, so of course he was a bad guy. A very disgusting, bad and smelly person!
