I just saw some one post the question "Do you think capitalism is better that communism?" and answers started rolling in as though the question made sense.
It must be bar time on Yahoo Answers.

In response to Doc Wilson's answer and the answer that follows his:
Capitalism is an economic system and Communism is a political system. Asking which is better doesn't make much sense.
I apologize to each of you for not explaining my point. I await your apology for jabbering about things you don't understand.

My question is about cup cakes.
But if you would like, socialism is what I suppose the referenced question might expect people to compare to capitalism and democracy is what I suspect the referenced question would have compared to communism.
I don't want to put words in the other questioner's mouth.
Cup cakes though...... that's a better thing to put in people's mouths.
I don't understand your point about apologies. I suspect that is another subject that you know very little about.

DocWil….
While re-reading your answer as a candidate for best answer (not), I realized two things.
First, I should have thanked you for labeling me intellectual. Thank you.
And the second thing is: when you say “those … who actually think that the two systems are comparable … are … fools.”, you are paraphrasing my point. The two systems really are not comparable. One system is economic and the other is political.
You say that the people that compared the systems are fools. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and just suggested they were drunk. The difference is, if you were drunk when you wrote your comparisons, tomorrow you would be sober and on you go. Unfortunately, it will take more than time to cure your foolishness.

Right now, both. You said a lighter and since I am a week without cigarettes, I would like just one. Also since I have less nicotine in my body, I have more cravings. So I would like to have a chocolate muffin with white frosting, also.

Does the question not make sense, or do you fail to see that the question does make sense? The above blanket assessment of the question, without one shred of explanation for the assessment, fails to convince me that the assessment is correct.
How did you know, Kay-Kay? I reworded the above paragraph because it seemed pretty grumpy. I guess all this talk of cupcakes has been making me hungry.
[Before I continue, please provide me with a system that contrasts with capitalism and a system that contrasts with communism. One should never apologize for one's own ignorance. Should an apology be a prerequisite for admission to a school?]
[[And dictatorship contrasts with what? Are you saying that you suspect I know nothing about ignorance? Actually, I never said I know anything about anything. So I have nothing to prove, right?]]

I suggest you read my answer to that question. The way you asked this question clearly shows that you are obviously one of the closed minded intellectual bigots who refuse to look at facts such as I stated in my answer to that question. I will repeat my conclusion for your benefit however. The fact is, the evidence for capitalism's superiority is so overwhelming, those on the political left who actually think that the two systems are comparable or that communism is in the slightest way superior are closed minded fools.

I like cupcakes. yet, baked goods lack a certain need to combust in time of need. Cigarette lighters definately have what it takes to soothe my sweet tooth, I choose peanut butter.final answer
