no one is encouraging anything in mogli. i'm pointing out that there are colloquial definitions, which is undeniable, and literal definitions. hers is a colloquial definition, which is wrong.

What exactly did I encourage?
Mogli seems willing to discuss things, so I am not going to rip into her because she doesn't have the same understanding I do.
In fact, I specifically corrected her numerous times, said corporatism is a far better description, etc. I also pointed out that calling Obama a state capitalist isn't all that far from the truth - meaning I can see why a person would make that mistake.
Not all of us want to ride a person for making a mistake, Hurf.

The art of persuasion isn't just about facts. It is about building on existing knowledge, picking your battles, etc.
Getting Mogli to distinguish between communism and Communism is a good start.
She isn't listening to you because you are intent on demolishing everything she believes instead of providing bits and pieces of new knowledge to be integrated. Our friend Saul Alinsky does not approve.

That is a fair point. What say you, Mogli? Are you ready to back up your assertions with evidence?
