Morning Tigs
A great day to you.
Freedom isn't
just fine, it is an imperative.
When a bunch of ideologue central planners start jack-booting across your courtyard, tho' ... as they do, expect some unintended consequence.When the militant force of evil make their provocative straight punch, the forces of freedom sadly, are compelled to return an upper cut. Hardly an apologist for Pinochet's excesses, but Allende had implemented a communist stuff up, and Chile was brought to its economic knees.
Was there a big degree of opportunism, afforded by the times? i.e. Read CIA help. "You betcha..."
Did Chile call on Mother Teresa for help?
Once again Marx's/Engels' thought, in practice, in the shoes of an Allende, show it to be a 'critique" of capitalism,
not a solution to capitalism. Declaring profit to be bad, isn't particularly enlightening or helpful, the last 150 years have disastrously shown.
'The end may justify the means - as long as there is something that justifies the end,' said Fred Trotsky.
