’t lie. After then, they always lie." Do you think this is a fair assessment? Why or why not?

This is not a fair assessment because it is a generalization about the other presidents due to an event that happened a long time ago and that does not involve them.

The Vietnam War was a warlike confrontation that occurred in the territory of Vietnam in which two sides faced each other. On one side were the North Vietnamese who had a Communist ideology, while the South Vietnamese had a Capitalist ideology.

This confrontation involved several foreign countries such as the Soviet Union and the United States. In the case of the United States, many American citizens rejected the idea of ​​involving the country in an alien confrontation because it had not affected American interests.

The president of the United States did not take into account citizen requests not to get involved in this confrontation and lied to be able to get involved in it. From that moment the credibility of the government is lower.

The credibility of the next government was also affected because now citizens believe that the rulers are lying. This conception is wrong and unfair because the management of all the presidents and public servants cannot be generalized due to the wrong action of one of them.

Therefore, I believe that it is not a fair evaluation that is expressed by the war veteran Karl Marlantes because he is generalizing about all the rulers because of what one of them has done.

Compare and contrast the political ideals of capitalism,socialism ,and communism.
jok3333 [9.3K]
All three are ways of approaching the economic system and how much the government should be involved in that system.
Capitalism involves private ownership of businesses with little to no government interference or regulation. Most countries do not run on laissez-faire capitalism in which there is no gov't regulation. However more run as a blend between capitalism and socialism.
In socialism, the government owns the means of production and sets pricing, wages, quotas, and production. Often managers are government appointed and the workers all receive an equal wage for their work. Cooperation is key to the success of socialism. This is also the step between an overthrow of capitalism to full communism. 
In communism, the means of production are owned by the people and the gov't is no longer needed to regulate business and/or wages. It is a complete cooperative state where the workers work for the good of all.
