well, for what it's worth, i wouldn't have asked anything about the op had the article not been so silly--it pitched the equivalence to socialism in the opening paragraphs by way of a personality cult schtick--but i understood the motivation. fact is that socialism does not require that people just like to be nice to each other. but us conservatives like to imagine that this is the case, mostly so they can juxtapose to it their manly man commitment to competition and all that...its all like a jack-in-the-box: turn the crank and the puppet inevitably pops up.
but spec outlined the logistical problem with an alternate title....
