Socialistic schemes ALWAYS overpromise and underdeliver.
Every kind of socialism relies on command-and-control, which degenerates finally into a military dictatorship, and even when full command and control cannot be instituted, the result is anarchy and chaos until a really draconian military dictatorship take power.
Usually by executing a goodly part of the citizenry.
What I posted earlier today:
The basis of all totalitarian (especially Marxist) systems is to convince you that you’re not an individual but rather a small part of the huge mass of ‘undifferentiated being’.
This means your individual autonomy, convictions, ethics, property, etc. are worthless and unnecessary. That you continue to strive for these things and continue to value them is anathema and Liberals label you ‘selfish’.
Once totalitarian leaders achieve this, YOU will be completely in their power.
Prepare yourselves for this argument:
“21st. Century computer technology, including real-time supply chain management systems and AI, will FINALLY allow an economy to be centrally managed in an efficient way.”
It’s coming, I assure you.
Great Post!
