Nietzsche on Socialism

I like reading Nietzsche for his wit and the simple manner he had in addressing philosophical subjects. He died way to young and and his candle had burned itself out by 1889 when he suffered a complete loss of his mental faculties (he went friggin nuts). He was 44 at that time but lived another 11 years under the care of his mother and sister.

There is both good and bad in his works and most will find something disagreeable if they read enough of him. I expect that’s what happens when you push the envelope. His view on socialism is interesting in that he nails both the methods it employs and characterizes the ‘half educated’ that find it attractive.
