Stupid buzzword acronyms aren't just for MBAs anymore.

How about because Norway or because Sweden? I don't give a shit what you were told in the USSR. The full name of North Korea is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. Does that mean it's a democracy because they say so? Was the right wing business friendly Hitler a Socialist because he said so?

I was actually thinking of Suharto and Hitler rather than the mere wannabe Pinochet. There was plenty of capitalism under those two. Suharto was even a friend of the West because even though he probably killed a couple of million he made sure the oil and mineral rights were available to be exploited by multinationals.

Socialism failed in the USSR but I don't see a problem with it in Northern Europe but then any hint of common good is evil Socialism and I've just realised I'm arguing with roman_mir so I'm not interested in banging my head against a brick wall. Bye bye.

Something out someone cannot be quite unique. It's an absolute. She's either unique or she isn't. You mean quite unusual.

That's Communism not Socialism. But then I'm not arguing against capitalism (which can be just as brutal as Communism if under a dictatorship), I'm arguing against the demonisation of socialism "because North Korea".

It's not a no go area for non Muslims either.

You said socialism failed and I gave you an example of where it had been an amazing success. It's hard to tell though what Americans are talking about when it comes to socialism because it could be anything from the Soviet Union to Nazi Germany to people not being bankrupted for the crime of being sick.

Piss off you southern shite.

All the people who haven't died of polio, smallpox and whooping cough would like to disagree with your statement.

Workhouses were tried in the UK. They didn't work too well.

It's quite different but still backwards compatible from what I can see.

Well they're releasing a completely rewritten version next month. Why would they have gone to all that effort if they're about to abandon it and what are they planning to replace it with?

You do know that you can write Web apps in .NET don't you?

They've "abandoned" it even though they're about to release C# 6 and a complete rewrite of ASP.NET called vNext which is being released as open source. Or do you have secret insider knowledge that they're planning to rewrite ASP.NET again in Javascript?

Sounds logical.
