Welcome CS. Good to have you.

It does seem odd to me that at this day and age we still have ideological 'government vs. free market' arguments. That's like arguing 'screwdriver vs. hammer'. The best tool is the one that best fits the job. We'd be much better off if instead, we argued about how to best mitigate the problems of each, and to best use the advantages of each.

IMHO Libertarians and Communists are very similar: they think too much about the road, and not enough about the destination.
