Capitalism vs. Socialism - The Real Story

In another twist, the GOP strategist Frank Luntz attacks Capitalism saying, “[The] use of the term ‘Capitalism’ is not healthy to conservatives and the term should be removed from the Republicans’ vocabulary.” So the question is: who is right?

This is the first in a series of articles, which will answer that question. To understand that answer, we will begin with the first known example of socialism – and it’s earlier than you may think.

The Birth of Socialism

In 1892, archaeologists uncovered a large cemetery of more than 3,000 graves on the west bank of the Nile River. These graves were different from what had usually been found in Egypt, because they were all basically the same.  They were about the same size, and contained the same kinds of grave wealth, consisting of pottery, combs, spoons, and flint knives.  What had been discovered was an ancient civilization dating back to about 4000 BC.  These people became known as the Naqada.

There is such a book called "Dictionary of Geosciences" by Adolf Watznauer. The 2nd edition, published in 1982, was the most recent one I could find. It has two volumes, English-German and German-English. There is a copy of the German to English volume on sale at Amazon for $150. Expensive, but it might be worth it depending on how serious you are.
