    Must be so awesome for those people living in non-capitalist countries that are able to do all those.

    Remind me what countries those are please?

          I think it does. Do you think that art and humanities aren’t appreciated under Socialism?

            No it doesn’t. I asked what non-capitalist countries allow you to chase the OP’s dreams and you’re just asking me a bunch of questions about my opinion of the existence of colleges, and art appreciation.

            But OK let’s suppose I have to answer your questions before I can get an answer to mine. Same answer for both: actually it’s not something I’ve ever thought about. But I could find out fairly easily, the first anyway, given a list of socialist countries I could do a quick web search to find out if they have colleges. They probably do, but I couldn’t name any at the moment. I think it would be tricky to find out whether or not A&H are appreciated under socialism; I don’t see any reason why they shouldn’t be but I couldn’t point to anything that gives an indication one way or another.

            Your answer now please: a list of countries where I could, if I lived and so desired, chase those dreams without the limitations of capitalism.

                I don’t think I’m trying to make any point. I’m just trying to understand where this stuff successfully plays out.

                If you don’t want to give a full list that’s fine. What would be your top three? Or any three if you prefer.

                  And how could I forget about:

                    So this socialism thing then is totally hypothetical? That no country in the world implements it?

                    The original post rails against capitalism, and at least implies that things would be better under socialism, but that can’t be true if socialism doesn’t actually exist.

      Remind me which countries failed due to socialism and not the full force of the western military complex whether by coup or invasion?
