Rexdragon125 09/06/23 9:52:53 AM #77:	What's interesting to me is that people in general are very against the government owning the means of production but don't seem to really mind when the means of production own the government, which is the case in the US today where lobbyists are literally writing the laws. I don't see a demonstrable difference in government owning business vs. business owning government. It just seems like the all-or-nothing laissez faire types will argue against the evils of socialism until they're blue in the face while not realizing that unfettered capitalism produces the exact same results. Neither socialism or capitalism are great policies to go whole hog on, you need a nice little balance of capitalism with safety nets and regulation or your capitalist utopia is going to become an oligarchy just like all of the communist countries you complain about. <cite>Rexdragon125 posted [p:975893555] in Communism:...

If we can't get our internal struggle with far right reactionaries and their brain draining war against higher education under control, then the long term outlook of America as a technological leader certainly doesn't look good.
