Inside the Mind of the Radical Left
Yesterday evening I heard the following conversation on BBC London Radio:
[Male] Caller: The problem with capitalist countries like Britain is that there's not enough social justice.
Host: What do you mean?
Caller: Well, for example, the minimum wage of £5.75 should be increased to £10.00.
Host: That's an easy thing to say but all that will do is force companies to raise their prices.
Caller: Oh no, I wouldn't let them do that. A big company earning $100 Million will have to stop being so selfish and just settle for $75 Million.
Host: How on earth could you stop them from earning more?
Caller: I would impose a cap on the profits of big companies or put a cap in the ass of the leaders of those companies.
Host: Are you joking?
Caller: Not at all.
Host: Do you realize that you're sounding a lot like Stalin and Hitler?
Caller: Funny you say that. When I was a child my mother used to say I was "A Little Hitler" because of the way I ordered the other little kids around.
