You owe me an apology. I wasn't correcting his understanding of communism with that comment. I was pointing out that one's support or lack thereof for capitalism in this society does not equate to being a traitor in our political domain.
Do you share moosenoose's belief that forming political parties reflecting one's beliefs regarding one particular economic structure instead of another is treasonous behavior in this country?
How does support of either capitalism or communism in the United States differentiate whether that person is a "traitor" to the body politic or the nation-state?
