Hi everyone...
I've been pondering for a long time, what political system my beleifs attribute to...
I beleive, above anything else that human life comes before money... Everyone is born equal, regardless of their nationality, social standing... anything like that... I am inherently against capitalism... it creates more bad than good...
So what am i exactly? I am more inclined towards socialism... but it'd be great if you could shed some light on this
Thanks

I would call you a socialist but it seems like you're not very acquinted with socialism. Never fear, http://marxists.org is here! Judging from your post, you may enjoy the writings of Karl Marx, August Bebel, William Morris, and Cyril Smith. :)

You're obvious an anti-capitalist of some sort, but it's hard to be more specific based only on this post.
I'd say that your best bet in clarifying your politics would be to address relevent political questions.
Like what do you think of working class revolution? How would you like to see postrevolutionary society structured? What role, if any, do you think that non-working class "fellow travelers" should have? That sort of thing.
Hell, you can even just start by looking at current events. The most important tool that a leftist has is his reason, the ability to to analyze in a cogent and materialist way.
Ultimately, no one can tell you what your beliefs are, only you can do that. But if you approach politics from a progressive and rational perspective, you're sure to end up at a good place in the end. :)
