We won’t even be able to afford a loaf of bread!

"A measure of wheat for a penny! A measure of wheat for a penny."
A penny was a full days wages, and a measure of wheat was one loaf of bread.

If you look back at all the socialists leaders before our current one, you'll see that millions of people were left to starve to death. Political power was more important than millions of human lives.
