Market != Capitalism. You can have a free market without capitalism, and capitalism without a free market.
The hexbears will attack me for saying that a regulated free market is good and a planned economy is bad. The others will attack me for saying that capitalism is bad and that we should have market socialism instead. But if we can't have that, a capitalist free market has proven much less bad than any planned economy, as long as it's regulated enough that it stays free.
Since nobody agrees with terminology, we might as well just say: we should do Scandinavia
Do you mean their economy and policies, or their people? In either case, I agree.
They didn't say "be" Scandinavia, but "do".
Ah, I see.
This is correct and praxis, date more Scandinavian hotties.
Why would what people your country has matter?
Read the comment that I replied to. It does not say "have", but "do".
Yeah and then you wrote "in either case, I agree" as in you think it would be better to have Scandinavians, than whatever you have now, which is why I ask what you mean by that?
The two cases were "do (meaning 'emulate') their economy and policies" and "do (meaning 'have sex with') their people". No "have" anywhere.
Okay that does make more sense, I had trouble parsing the text, thank you for taking the time to explain it.
