@@Nine-Signs What a load of crap, the capitalist part of our economy is the Private sector ( all the businesses, small and large and restaurants and eateries and pubs and of course the Private Schools) it’s the public sector ( Socialist part) that sits on its laurels and shoves paper all day and does squat all for their pay, most of which want indefinite furlough. Capitalists work for a living, it’s the socialists that are constantly striking for more pay they haven’t even worked for, that’s the reason why Scotland is a mess because 80% of its people belong to their pretend parliament, only 20% are actually working in the private sector, the rest are work shy on welfare, whilst Nicola Sturgeon and her party take the British taxpayers money ( only 1 million Scots pay it and its very high, so the rest is coming from the English, whom the SNP hate ) via the Barnet System subsidy and are not redistributing it like they are supposed to, they are just putting it a vault someplace and siphoning it off for themselves. You are surrounded by capitalism everyday, everything in your own home is down to capitalism, because capitalists produce things, manufacture things whereas Socialist/Communist economies fail because they don’t produce anything and they are all poverty stricken. You cannot have socialism without capitalism, even welfare is capitalism. Even Del Boy selling dodgy gear is capitalism. The socialist ideology of redistribution of wealth ( invariably someone else hard earned wealth via high taxation) and public ownership of all business and industry, fails and doesn’t pay the bills - only capitalism does. That’s why when people get to around 35-40 they change their political outlook and become centre right capitalists rather than lefties ( unless as I said, they are extremely wealthy) as the often by that time have a family to support, a mortgage to pay and a car to run. Their former outlook doesn’t work in reality.

He was also Ryder Cup captain from 1983 to 1989; Europe winning two and tying another of these four events.
