-isms don't work

...for normal people.
Capitalism, Communism, Socialism, Utilitarianism, and all the others.  They're all pretty much fine in the hands of intelligent, rational people.  But the problem is the masses screw everything up.  My question to you poli-tards is, would it be possible to lie to the average man and trick him into believing one thing, while secretly accomplishing the goals of one of the 'isms'?

lol utilitarianism. do you know what the word means? it means the ethical theory where overall happiness is the only measurement for moral actions. and this is normally practiced by most people as a sort of "common sense" morality. of course it is flawed but for most everyday things, the majority of people are utilitarians by nature.

yeah, too bad we have to "care" about how the other 99 are doing ...
