yeah I guess from my point of view all the systems for distributing resources and power ‘fairly’ fail on their own. Mostly because they usually silo power in 1 or 2 mechanisms, so power concentrates and corrupts over time.

Also from a systems engineering standpoint -I dislike ‘purity’. I prefer blended systems with backups and counter-measures. If I want to know which systems work best I look at what is delivering the best results and right now for me thats the nordic socialist democracies which still have plenty of capitalism.

Im not saying we’ve arrived at the best and should stop improving, but Im not interested in the endless hypothetical arguments about which ideology would be best if perfectly implemented. They are never perfectly implemented so best design something that can withstand reality.

TL:DR; You want to eradicate capitalists, I want to relegate them to a lower rung of society but accept they will exist
