  I am going to post this here because I don't want anyone who read the 
origional to have only that side.  If you want a follow-up in a group,
post the article in that group!
  To begin with there is no such thing a Maxist goverment or a free market
goverment.  Can you tell me a goverment that has absolutely no controls on
what is done in the market place.  Also, there is no goverment that goes by
the teachings of Marx.  The USSR is a far cry from Marxism.  
  Now I will not talk of either of these forms of idealistic goverment.  I will
talk of say the US vs USSR.  Did you notice the term *free* market?  If a
goverment does not have a free market, I hold that it would be very difficult
to have a free people.  While Marxism and Communism are ment to free the people,
in reality, they do not work; at least not the way that human nature is today.
Any attempt at it seems to curtail personal freedom along with the market 
place's freedom.
  We may now move this to some other group.
