::::::::The "Good socialism" etc designations are section titles in the book. O'Rourke visited and examined four countries - two capitalist, two socialist. He basically ranked them as: USA, Sweden, Cuba, Albania and came to the conclusion that capitalism is the superior system. He was HL Mencken Research Fellow at the Cato Institute, he's a registered Republican and NRA member and he's definitely conservative. Please let's not start judging books we haven't read, eh? --[[User:SamCoulter|SamCoulter]] 00:51, 22 September 2011 (EDT)

:::::::::Thanks DrDean. I'd get quite annoyed if anyone started calling PJ a liberal (although in Europe that's exactly what he'd be, ironically enough.) --[[User:SamCoulter|SamCoulter]] 00:53, 22 September 2011 (EDT)

::::::::::He is a liberal in the sense that he likes liberty. I had actually included Parliament of W----'s to the list, but I'm not sure if that kind of language is appropriate for this community. --[[User:DrDean|DrDean]] 01:21, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
::::::::::He is a "liberal" in the sense that he likes liberty, which is very different from the conservative/liberal dichotomy of today. I had actually included Parliament of W----'s to the list, but I'm not sure if that kind of language is appropriate for this community. --[[User:DrDean|DrDean]] 01:21, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
