“The difference is that when the data disproves a theory, scientists abandon the theory and don't think that is an easy discipline.“ How’s that “different”? If they’re willing to abandon it, they don’t view it as “objective truth.” It’s just the closest thing they have.
So are you going to say that "true" communism and socialism has never been tried? Would you accept that argument from a Neo-Nazi? How many times have to die before true believers give up this faith?

True socialism and communism HAVE been tried many times, and pretty successfully. They just can’t be delivered by a state. True “state socialism” has also been tried, many, many times, with varying levels of success.

Agreed. Communes can and do function. Like the Amish, mennonites etc. It doesn't work at the state level for communism. As for Socialism, I think the jury is out on that one. Let's see what happens in the UK when the majority of welfare recipients are not native born citizens.
