lol cmon dude

i've lived under socialism at various times and just no

basically when you require that people live for others instead of for themselves you need a bunch of cops to make sure that everyone is toeing along the party line.

massive bureaucracies to get anything done... permits permits permits...

and then the only way to get shit done is to have "connections" instead of money. "i have friend who knows the minister", that sort of thing. bribes are often required. instead of free lawful exchanges you have patronage and corruption.

i mean. if you don't like capitalism, let's put 3 more tenants in your house, and a block captain to report your transgressions.

seriously, capitalism puts the scarcity problem at the forefront of your decisions. socialism pretends it can do away with scarcity but it's lies. this is why venezuelans can't even buy asswipe or wash their hands with soap.
