Default Re: The purpose of societal systems

@OrangeCrate: Why is it "pseudo intellectual double talk"? How is it doublespeak?

I only constructed language for the communication, not to distort meanings. What you quoted certainly does not seem like that?..(I clearly stated "Feel free to note if those can not be separated and why")
What i am really doing is trying to find the grounds of peoples' political beliefs, not grind into the same old replies. Exactly what OP says: "this thread is about the purpose of the systems, not how it should work", that is the approach i want to take.
Are things like socialism, libertarianism, communism, capitalism not such systems? Would it not be important to find out what their purpose is before trying to find out how such system should work? Of course, you might hope for one purpose but not think it practical, but you can still try keep the construct of how it works out of the discussion, for discussions' sake.

I hope Iammyaspectofus is not correct in his post. (Found his post a bit of a hard read, initially. Dont be fooled if he does not initially make sense.)
