I have.  It's part of any basic philosophy course, as is Socrates, Cicero,
and others of that time in history.

Haven't you?

>Most of us have moved on to more recent and scientific knowledge.

You seem to be under the rather bizarre impression that study of Aristotle
prohibits one from studing others.  Why is that?  Are you some kind of
mental defective?

I do actually know what socialism is - it's you who do not.  That's why you
keep refusing to provide a definition - you know how stupid you'll make
yourself look, which at this point shouldn't be too difficult.

I do know what socialism results in.

big government approach with high taxes and

Please identify where I ever advocated socialism as a positive socioeconomic
system.  I'll wait.

This is what I mean about you repeatedly using the term inappropriately, and
applying the term to people who are not "socialists" in any way.

> I notice your remarks about `socialism' are without any specifics,

What remarks are those?  I'm still waiting for you to provide a definition
of the term.

Can you?  WARNING:  once you do so, you'll be obligated to quit using it the
way that you have been, you fucking moron.

So far you and your ilk tend to apply it to anyone who is opposed to the
foreign policies of George W. Bush.  That's not just bizarre - it's
psychotic.
