Ugh. This is why I try to avoid socialism/capitalism debates.

I love the pro socialist line that man can never be free under capitalism, because not working isn't an option!

When has not working EVER been an option?
I have to go with the nature arguement about capitalism. Alone, on a desert island, all your rights are there.
No one can infringe on any right you have.
You keep what you earn, by the sweat of your brow.

There is just no safety net.

I can prove that a true working communist economy requires capitalism.

Capitalism good? Are you kidding? Look at the glorious Communist Utopia The Democratic Republic of Korea is, compared to the poor, starving malevolent Dictatorship that is the South.

Oh wait...
