I would like to find out if there are actually any Aspies with my mindset, if there isn't clearly I don't belong here.

Unions ruined the British Motor Industry you know. (and poor management ;p)

Hell the British Union leaders were going up to Moscow now and then to recieve "orders" apparently, this was in the 1970s.

Now where's the fun in that? ;]
I've considered combining the Capitalist Economic system with a Authoritarian Political system, but I dunno ;p

It's all academic of course, some could argue that my above proposition is probably what USA practices this century lol.
I treat my friends properly, are workers somehow different? ;]
In some businesses, the workers and the bosses aren't friends with each other.
Well I wouldn't be friends with my workers.

BUT I would treat them as friends. Tongue

A contradiction I know, but then I myself am a contradiction ;]
Technically anyone with a job is a Capitalist, per se ;p

Selling their labour, for a wage.

I'll be wanting an email justifying your stance against mine ;]

It won't be read mind.

Funny, nobody EVER takes me up on that offer..
In my experience Socialism has this rather unfortunate habit of, how can I put this, killing people.

Maybe I am incorrect ;p

People tend to work themselves to death under capitalism but I guess at least they have some choice in the matter whereas they might not under socialism.

I haven't read all of the posts, but my question is how does a truth-loving Aspie deal with all of the lies required by advertising and marketing?  I took a marketing class in college and it turned my stomach.  And how does a justice-loving Aspie deal with the horrors of economics, where it is cheaper to pay off families of dead victims than to redesign a faulty product?  (Ford Pinto for example, from the 1970s)

I wondered about that myself.
