“The history of the 20th century is full of examples of countries that set out to redistribute wealth and ended up redistributing poverty.”
“There’s no point blaming the tragedies of socialism on the flaws or corruption of particular leaders. Any system which allows some people to exercise unbridled power over others is an open invitation to abuse, whether that system is called slavery or socialism or something else.”—Thomas Sowell

Nice quote Sprout.
I typed the excellence quote into Google, and according to On Line Opinion: Great Leaders - Born or Made?, this quote originates from Confucius.

and wat about smoke, mirrors and fogscreens
.. this Caketin is full of little spiders and watermelon seeds.....
..Chess is all about fear and psychology
..Chess is like an exam..... you havent studied for
..If you're good at Chess it means you are very intelligent and could potentialy do great things
..... but that you might have wasted that playing way too much chess
