To me, we’ll have achieved democratic socialism not when there is no conflict in the world, but when our societies are not governed based on power, but are governed based on the mutual understanding that everybody deserves a decent and quality life.

Wow, this guy is a clueless idiot.

He thinks that a democratic socialist government would be “societies are not governed based on power”? Sorry buddy but you are dreaming of something that can never be. A democratic socialist government requires pretty much absolute power so that it can enforce totalitarian rules on people.

I would love to ask him if he would like to have a council of Baptist ministers telling him how to live his life? Democracy can give him the opportunity. Hey, you can’t dance, play cards, gamble or drink beer.

The majority of voters elected a bunch of Baptist ministers to government and these are the new rules.

Oh, and get ready for this pal.

We passed a new constitution by a simple majority vote and you are going to tithe 10% to the Baptist church like it or not.

This is what democracy looks like! It controls every aspect of your life by majority vote.

In my case that's more of a lack of talent than anyone telling me I can't do it. :-)
