None of this has anything to do with industry or business matters.

I advocate for a mixed economy.

I DO NOT support shyt like @Swavy Karl Marx who suggests that you shouldn't/can't own your own PRIVATE means of production.

Speaking in absolutes isn't going to help you.

Absolutely, and utterly false.

The creativity found in this country is unparalleled. Even Putin admits it.



How old are you ? you really think america is some inherently creative place? And you tried to evidence this by quoting... Putin? The rest of your post was more nonsense I dont even know what you were disputing,

I think America's relative geography, unique take on politics and government, and geopolitical aims, as well as adherence to laws and development have placed it in a special place to reward the creativity and expressiveness of risk takers.

So yeah, I do.

The formula works.

What you advocate for is actually not even an economic system, its a religion. The idea that all gaps in society or all problems can be solved by some newtonian force known as The Market
Or its equal and opposite force, "collectivism?" :heh:

Look bro. Government is about management and solving problems through policy. Some policies are meant to last forever and many are meant to be temporary. These things wax and wane depending on the status or needs of the nation. As such, if your government can't come up with ways to help its people, you can't just toss out buzzwords when things aren't going your way. :ufdup:

Why are you giving me lectures on the purpose of government? Or public policy? I was a public policy major at a top 15 uni in the world.

I've already said we should have invaded Venezuela instead of Iraq and I mean it.

Hell colonizing and administrating all of South America would've been a better deal.

If anyone takes an objective look at the average ultilitarian value of socialism as practised in the 20th century, and capitalism, we can see that by far and away the benefits to humanity have come from socialism.

Free healthcare
Free education
Affordable housing
Food security

Those are the things that distinguish our societies from those in the past. Not technological or scientific advancements. Having a government for the people in a social context was primarily the purpose of the enlightenment and Americas founding as an extention.
Lol. So aviation, computers, healthcare advances have had no impact on our society today vs its past? Lol.

Not to mention most countries, including the US, don't even have all, if ANY of the things you mention.

Redistributionists complain about people not acknowledging history, but they don't either (note the fellating of the 50s as a "golden era for workers" :mjlol: ) and by posts like the one I just quoted don't have much regard or grasp of what is going on in the world today either. But go ahead and cook for them fellow grad student redistributionist daps :obama:

Virtually every developed country, including the U.S., has implemented forms of free healthcare, free education, old age pensions, and price controlled/free housing. They've reduced poverty severely and raised standards of living tremendously.

And every step of the way they were, correctly, decried as redistributionist socialism.

But hey, posts>>>>>>facts

You go on and cook for daps from Napoleon and his alias :huhldup:

I dun told @Napoleon to stop dapping me numerous times breh.

OK, if we are counting partial application then the net grows wider. But @Broke Wave's assertion that the only diff in society today vs the past is how far we've come w/socialist programs has no bearing on reality and only reflects his (and your) very narrow metrics of progress.

I CAN'T WAIT till you nikkas enter the real world and start making actual money.

Oh please. If credentials were a pre-requisite for participation here u would have said so long ago. And in any case, 1 that explains a lot and 2 that makes how bad your views on economics and the like worse.... u should know better

I think @Swavy Karl Marx and @Melbournelad blocked me. Ask them what each of their plans are after graduation.
