So your beef is that he shows solidarity to oppressed minority's ?

Seems like part of the job description for a Socialist, you know, someone who doesn't demonise minorities or use their press influence to turn the population against them.

I confess to my only interest in Corbyn is in revisiting Socialism again after a gap of at least 30 years , their could be a place for a leader with a social conscience (after a complete dearth of any) and a willingness to at least consider all points of the argument rather than stick to a dogma written by a shadow.

Do you also find self loathing therapeutic as well as despising individuals less fortunate than yourself?

You mean running their own business?

You said people should get off their backsides and do something to change their situation.
Does that include working together with others to improve many peoples working lives?

[quote="King Monkey":30st820n]Maybe a spell in prison would do Graham good. At least he'd lose his virginity.[/quote:30st820n]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_18919.jpg



The thing is, if all these people "got off their backsides, and achieved" then the world would essentially grind to a halt. Who would stack the shelves in the supermarket? Who would load the luggage on to the planes at the airport? Who would process the invoices for all the "achievers"?
What would happen if developing commodity exporting countries, and the workers within those countries working for peanuts because they don't feel they have another choice suddenly realised that they're being bent over, and actually started charging a more appropriate price for their labour, commodities?

The fact is, big business needs a significant amount of unskilled labour to pick from to exploit. It needs a high level of poverty, and corruption in developing countries to keep their import costs down.
Governments need people on welfare to buy votes. Big business needs government, to be able the pass legislation that favours their interests.
There're are definitely people in society who are parasites, and exploit the system, but many of those people are the ones who designed the system in the first place.
