Well, you're close. "You" or "we" practice communism and capitalism when dealing with one another. They are two halves of our nature. When we base a government in one, to the exclusion of the other, I like to capitalize the letter. The only reason that I do that is to make what I type clear but pithy. Not making this distinction makes the conversation pretty difficult to follow.

Well... obviously. But saying you are for the advancement of the human race just puts you in a pretty large group. I mean, there's Lex Luther and Dr. Evil teaming up to destroy mankind, and then all the rest of us in your group.

Yes. It's called, "Bad human nature".
Ok, I suppose I made that to easy to mis-read. I should have asked: Who isn't for the advancement of the human race?

As I said, I suspect cats.


...and pigeons, but to a lesser degree since they never really get anything done at their meetings.

How can someone who obviously thinks so much of their ideas have so little respect for expressing them? How can someone who so yearns to be taken seriously make so little effort?!
