tl;dr - true capitalism results in economic singularities and infinite wealth for everyone. that’s why i like capitalism as a leftist.
to get us started, my definition of capitalism is “unregulated competition”.
i ask because… …i really like capitalism. but i’m a leftist.
i am someone who has been called numerous 6 letter words my entire life by people who think i’m a socialist or communist. but i’m really not.
it’s funny really, those calling me a f##### can’t handle real competition. especially at this point in a planetary species’ development. where nimbleness, flexibility and cooperation among economic partners is more profitable than most government intervention. obviously.
government is meant to ensure security, authenticity and veracity of economic claims. not limit markets with patents or unreasonable prohibitions.
i think authentic capitalism is wonderful and the ideal choice for a free society.
Deflection. Regardless of your definition, none of the countries you listed or any other country considered socialist has ever reverted to social democracy. Again, it is a phase capitalism where concessions are given to the working class. Only capitalist countries attempt it.
Says the person who declines to answer simple questions.
This is the most incoherent argument I’ve read all week. What does it matter if a country reverts to what? Also, some USSR states did revert to social democracies, but that probably doesn’t count to you because of reasons. To be clear, I don’t care about your reasons for that.
