Bess [88]2 years ago

In early October, as they reached the Humboldt River in central Nevada, supplies were perilously low, animals were dying, days were hot and tempers short. While driving his wagon up a steep, sandy slope, the young teamster John Snyder began to beat his oxen with a whip handle. Reed intervened, and Snyder's frustration turned on him. With the butt of his whip he slashed Reed's forehead. Reed drew a knife, in self-defense. Snyder struck again, and Reed stabbed him in the chest. Within half an hour the young man was dead. Feelings against Reed ran so strong, some wanted to hang him. But others spoke out in his behalf. A compromise was struck, and he was banished.

What’s better communism or liberalism and why
ad-work [718]
I think liberalism is better. Why? Because communism, is a political and economic system in which wealth and resources are divided among citizen equally or according to individual need. Examples: Government controlled education, no private property, all $/ property belongs to the state, etc.

Liberalism is freedom from regulations/ rules and overbearing government, its people power. The power for the individual to do what he/she wants within bounds of the law or society. Liberals are much in favor of the people being more powerful than the government.
