Well, if we need any proof, we can look at how effective Socialist Utopias have been in the past. There is in fact a very large number of political scientists who acknowledge pure Communism and pure Socialism as failed theories, as they have shown to invariably fail if applied to a group any bigger than a small tribe with kinship ties.

They are systems which need 100% cooperation and integrity. There needs to be nobody who wants to be better or richer than anyone else.

"Instead of a system where the purpose is to exploit the customers by attempting to squeeze out as much money as possible, in order for there to be more profit. Do you understand that concept?"

Yes, I understand that concept. But do you understand that this is just not how people operate? Do you really think that nobody is going to take advantage of this situation? Every once-promising socialist/communist state has ended up with this happening. The principles between what you are suggesting and what happened in Stalin's Russia are basically identical.

They should be treated the same as pedophiles IMO, they have a disease, obesity needs to be eradicated.

You totally missed the point of everything I said. Cut out the idea of "profit" and then with the same cost of tickets today, there could be bigger and more comfortable seats. At the end of the day the purpose of these airlines is not for comfort and affordability, but rather it's for profit.
You're right, people should spend 10 years studying to be a commercial pilot to do it on a voluntary basis.

lol it's not the fault of capitalism.

They made pigs out of themselves and decide to cry about it. The plane is too squashy? go find another mode of transport. Or actually get healthy and lose weight. No one is forcing them to go via plane. No one forced them to be fucking fat. It's their fault.
In our society, obesity is increasiing like crazy, you can't just label millions of ppl as lazy. Fattening food is extremely addictive and it's very very hard to just 'get healthy' - it's not that easy. No one chooses to get fat, no one wants to be fat. They must hate themselves enough already without you hating them so much.

People choose to be fat.

First they put on 10 kg.

Then 20.
Then 100 kg. It's pretty fucking easy after the first 10 to go 'holy shit I'm getting fat, time to stop'.

Admit it. We're a society of lazy pigs. Everything is convenient, and anything that isn't convenient we don't bother with. We can't be fucked cooking because we're too busy sitting on our fat asses.

Don't call them victims you retard. 50% of the Australian population are not victims purely because they made bad choices. Nobody has an excuse to say 'lol i didnt know a sedentary lifestyle and shit food would make me fat'

Nor should we get to the stage where we accept obesity.

People do not choose to be fat.
Do you hate smokers too?
It's like saying "It's pretty fucking easy after your first 10 cigs to go 'holy shit I'm getting addicted and unhealthy, time to stop"
Food is an addiction.
Accept obesity? where did you ge that idea?
I think we should do heaps of stuff to try and reduce it.

I really don't understand how you jump from pedophile to disease. What does pedophilia have to do with being overweight? Yes obesity is like a disease and we need to try and eradicate it. But why on earth do you hate them? You're the one who said they have a disease...should we kill cancer victims as well?...I really don't understand. Fat people don't hurt anyone...

Everybody stop responding to Rockyroad.

She is an A Class moron. She wants to do a Bachelor of Biology (but not BSci and Major in bio LOL!) and she believes that evolution has been proven. LOL HEARD OF FOSSILS?!

EVOLUTION HAS BEEN PROVED. Ever heard of a fossil? - shows an animal that is in between two current species. It was EVOLVING. I think people get confued about what evolution is.
Does the bible say that God created all animals and they haven't changed etc?
Edit: oh sorry I forgot that God put fossils there to confuse us - silly me.
No offense to anyone.
Jesus christ.

Gee stalking much...
Stop labelling and trying to influence others opinions of me. Keep your opinions to yourself. I don't follow your threads and warn ppl of your idiocy. Leave me alone, get over your self. I also think you are a moron. Hello ppl - katie thinks that Aborigines, as a race, are just stupid and lazy and thinks that their past has no effect on Aborigines' current situation. Katie does not believe in paid maternity leave and thinks that if you can't afford a baby then you just shouldn't get pregnant.
Yes I personally believe that evolution has basically been proven. Get over it - it is my opinion. That quote is out of context and I was responding to what others were saying. If that's the worst you got then I am not ashamed. Ppl - actually read my posts for yourself and don't accept katie's judgement. Maybe read katie's posts instead.
No I don't want to do a bachelor of biology I want to a bachelor of science, majoring in biology. so what? (maybe you mis-interpreted my wish that there was such thing as a bachelor of biology)
You are so hateful. I have always been respectful on this site, never called anyone a terrible name or sworn repetively at anyone like you. I have a right to my opinions. You have a problem.

Fuck you are epic retarded beyond comprehension. YOU CAN'T JUST SAY 'LOL I THINK EVOLUTION HAS BEEN PROVEN AND THATS MY OPINION, SUCK A DICK!' when it HAS NOT been proven! You yap on about wanting to do Bio at uni, but you don't even comprehend the most basic fundamentals of something as rudimentary as evolution!!!!

Yeah cool. Everybody already knows this, you sped. All of those things combined are not as retarded as saying 'evolution has been proved coz I said so LOL!'

I don't accept opinions without evidence to back them up. Otherwise they're invalid to me. Don't get me wrong, there is significant evidence for evolution, but there is a reason it is called a THEORY.

I can't believe you do Biology and say the things you do. Wait, yes I can, considering the calibre of most of my Biology class...

And I also don't think you should have a baby if you can't afford it. What common-fucking-sense. It's cruel to the child, and why should everyone else have to pay for THEM?

You may think you have a right to your opinions, but that also means people have the right to form an opinion of you such as Katie has. (for which there is actually EVIDENCE for in this case.)

I never said that. I don't know what all that has to do with the topic question...
Leave me alone, I don't want to posts to you anymore. We obviously don't get along, lets just leave each other alone and stop subjecting other ppl to us abusing each other. I am stopping now, please just message me if you want to bang on about how stupid I am and I will do the same. ENOUGH. DON'T RESPOND.

i like rockyroad. she isn't rude and she isnt afraid of voicing her opinions on touchy issues. she brings a lot of new discussion on these debates, especially since they often become one-sided on this forum.
