					<description><![CDATA[I disagree with the final part:  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&#034;... i would gladly accept communism and be happy to live free. ... one&#039;s anarchism should come first and all other ideological considerations should be secondary. &#034;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To me, capitalism (private property + free markets) is an integrated whole with life and freedom.  They are inseparable. Freedom *is* the freedom to produce, own, and accumulate capital. Not for it&#039;s own sake, but because that is how one builds a secure, free, and happy life of the kind one chooses. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It&#039;s like saying that breathing should come first and eating second, with the implication that if breathing and eating are somehow found to be incompatible, the latter can be abandoned. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I were faced with the insurmountable choice of communism/socialism or nothing, I&#039;d choose neither.  I&#039;d abandon society and go be a hermit somewhere. At least then I would still be able to build some kind of life, or die trying.  Fortunately, I am certain that free people will not choose communism or socialism in the long run.]]></description>
