I am sure there is another thread along these lines, but I couldn't find it, so if the mods need to move this, be my guest, thank you.
Now, onto the subject. I agree with the Nationalistic aspect of course. I tend to lean towards isolationist views of defending our borders and keeping outsiders out, or expelling those who have already infiltrated a system.
As for the economic views, I don't know that I fully understand a socialists view, so maybe some of you here can help me in this. As for capitalism, I can give some pros and cons from my experiences. The free market should work...supply and demand should interact well, however the US government takes an active role in adjusting prices, especially of crops, and that has lead to socialism being viewed as terrible here. Free trade is ridiculous in my opinion, we should worry more about our economy than letting businesses make cheap products in other countries to ship them here.
Benefits include the ability to succeed. Working for what you have, and having the responsibility of it. The welfare state here in the US is abused constantly by minorities, and they are taught how to game the system from generation to generation.
Anyways I wanted to get a good conversation going on the benefits and downfalls of each system to compare. I was a political science major, however, they tend to not discuss National Socialism much, due to political taboos, and I concentrated on U.S. politics, since that is where I live.
