Be honest with me, /his/, is capitalism a pyramid scheme? Is there are any merit in the marxist notion that there is no incentive for peripherical countries to take part in the Capitalist system because they do not benefit at all from it?
>>18055559Nah. Surely the wealth will trickle down. Any minute now. Any minute...
>>18055559China and various others have had massive success by selectively taking part in it. Accept foreign investment and tech as far as possible, make sure control and reinvestment of profits remains in country. Set up reasonable regulations and progressive tax schemes to keep inequality reasonably low, or rather, ensure that the lower classes are sufficiently affluent to not rebel. Basically, have your country act like a rational self-interested actor in the capitalist world as a whole, don't have your individuals do that.>>18055561The solution for lack of trickling down is taking wealth by force, political or military. Through communism or through aforementioned regulations. though the latter is far superior. Only works within country. The third world poor cannot use force to take money from the first world rich, the idea is absurd.
>Is there are any merit in the marxist notion that there is no incentive for peripherical countries to take part in the Capitalist system because they do not benefit at all from it?No. Not even commies believe this since they pretend North Korea is capitalist LMFAO.
