What's the deal with Socialism?

I love how people that sit in front of a computer all day for work like to talk about the work ethic of others. It's absolutely ridiculous.

I'm not sure that Koreans work all that hard. In terms of productivity they are well down on the OECD lists. They do work long hours and have short vacations, but in work it is my perception that they are quite lazy. In the bank the other day for example, there were five people on the counter sitting idle. 3 more senior types behind (with one of them playing with his phone) and a total of 3 customers including me and my wife. Hardly overrun with work at all. You see it everywhere in Korea. Far more people working than you need and many idling about making coffee. I'm not knocking it as it provides jobs, but Korean's are hardly bastions of efficiency nor productivity.

As for the whole socialist argument, that one takes up too much time for me to post about, so I will politely abstain for a couple of days and I will try to give a proper response then. It's the last day of the year and I'm going to watch to watch the boxing and then try and stay away from the computer until the New Year. So best wishes to you all and I hope you all manage to have a good evening and stay out of trouble!
