Glen does have a good looking pup in his Avatar... But so far Glen's bark has been worse than his bite.
I need to go listen to his music as well... so many folks, so little time.
But no, I don't think he has a clue what real Socialism or Communism is. He's just one of the misled eating from the table of dissent against the Current President. I met some of those folks when I disagreed with the last President... the Anarchists who oppose everything for the argument/ discord.
The main thing he and I disagree on is facts... I go find them and then make a decision... he has yet to offer any. I'm sure if we looked we could find plenty to agree on, but he'd rather use me to sharpen his intellectual claws on. Sometimes I think he learns from our "conversations", other times it seems he's paying no attention what so ever, and just venting against something he doesn't understand.
Oh, well... his "logic" makes mine look brilliant. Fun for a foil... thru his "misunderstanding" of the current events I have been able to refute many of the "myths" being perpetuated in today's popular society. Not sure if it was him or one of the other "detractors" but I found out more about the [url=Top IRS officials have been working with Democrats on Capitol Hill to determine how the agency will enforce President Obama’s new health care law.

"All that will happen with the IRS is similar to a current 1099, where a bank sends the IRS a statement that says 'here's the interest' someone owes, and they send it to the taxpayer," he said. "We expect to get a simple form that ... says this person has acceptable health coverage."
President Obama's budget for FY 2011 gives a $450 million increase for the IRS and describes the agency's $8 billion allocation for enforcement and modernization programs to support "significant new revenue-generating initiatives that will target critical areas of non-compliance."
Of the nearly 199 million income tax returns filed with the IRS last year, more than 1.5 million -- or just below 1 percent -- were reviewed by agency auditors.
Q: Will the IRS hire 16,500 new agents to enforce the health care law?
A: No. The law requires the IRS mostly to hand out tax credits, not collect penalties. The claim of 16,500 new agents stems from a partisan analysis based on guesswork and false assumptions, and compounded by outright misrepresentation.
But again, I heard this first here in Bandmix, and was able to find the answers before my neighbor could make that assertion, thus having the facts to share with him, and help diffuse some of his concerns about
