One of my former college instructors, myself and some other vets got into an argument once about whether or not the US was a democracy or a socialistic republic with capitalist ideals. The argument lasted most of the semester with someone bringing in or e-mailing articles back and forth.

From the orginal post - it looks like the instructor will eventually win.

Didn't "Animal Farm" from Orwell state "All pigs are created equally -- just some more than others." ?

Man. Oh man. Where's Hulk Hogan when you need him?
