Communism and Captialism are equal

I came to this realization of this by deconstructing the ideas of Socialism. I came to the conclusion that both can be bad or good, but it depends on who's hands it is in. If the person who is head of a company or a head of nation cares about people, and not power, then the little man will be happy.If the person wants power, than the little man will suffer. This is true in either cases of government.

Demand is unlimited. Needs are unlimited. Wants are unlimited.

I don't 'need' three meals a day, I usually live on one. I would LIKE to have 50 meals a day if someone else is making them for me, I'm not going to go through the effort to cook more than I feel like I'm going to get a return on the effort. I have infinite demand for meals. I have little need for meals.

When you actually consider all the taxes, not just the income tax, the poor pay more taxes. And even the income tax isn't really progressive in practice. The rich incorporate to massively reduce their tax burden. It's progressive up to the middle class and regressive after that in practice. People like you complain one minute about "tax cuts for the rich" then go on and talk about how the rich are paying so much more in taxes and it's a good thing.

Bureaucrats (almost always middle-class) are also major tax consumers. In fact, 70% of the money for the Welfare system is paid out to bureaucrats administrating the system, that's money going to the middle class, only 30% of the money actually goes to the poor.
