Originally clipped by a non-thinker. I thought I would re-clip to add insight and clarity.

This statement is true. Every ideology IS right. There is nothing inherently evil in ANY ideology. It may be that the ideology I despise most..Fascsim..is the best political ideology there is, and I believe it may be. Here is the rub. You cannot take any ideology in a vacuum. The best ideology for the current state of humanity is the one which allows for the greatest expression of liberty. Since, the closest one that allows for this happens to exist under the framework of Jeffersonian Democracy in this Republican system of government.

In other words...it is not the system that is inherently evil, it is people who are inherently evil.

Wow, a great clip and well said.
Check out Thomas Sowell's "A Conflict of Visions". His book gets to the root of why people lean more toward one ideology or another.
His follow up book "The Vision of the Anointed" examines the core beliefs of the left in particular and is also a great read.
