Explain why communism is supposed to be bad
xenophilic, ethnomasochistic
>>535357360Because, stealing from people is wrong, you dumb thieving nigger.
Capitalism and communism are both bad but you can find a sweet spot between the two
>>535357360Migu
>>535357360Republicans could run it.
>>535357485They are completely incompatible. One is about private ownership of the means of production and the other is about collective ownership.
>>535357360People have a right to the fruits of their own labor. Bludgeoning the parasite billionaire class does not neccessitate communism. Simply implement an 80% tax on corporate profits, 80% on dividends (on payout), and 80% on stock buybacks, and you cripple the billionaire parasite machine. No taking people's property or labour fruits needed, no communism needed!
>>535359325Tied with that tax plan should also be:-Treasury nationalizes the FED, becoming the currency monopolist,-Constitution is amended to prohibit the Treasury from writing bills, notes, or bonds,-Only fictitious limited liability commercial entities pay income taxes and not flesh-and-blood citizens,-All 'expenses' incurred by the Treasury, including entitlement spending, must come from taxes and duties collected,-All money lent by the Treasury to commercial banks must have come in as either interest or from taxes and duties,-Constitutional amendment stating that IF the Treasury prints fresh Dollars ever, then it must only emit those Dollars in equal apportionment to flesh-and-blood citizens and never for loans, 'expenses', or entitlement programs; these payments would be immune from all judgments, debts, garnishments, and liens the citizen may have against him.This is the only way We The People of the United States will have our rightful economic power, and make the billionaire class serve us again!
Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow? 'No!' says the man in Washington, 'It belongs to the poor.' 'No!' says the man in the Vatican, 'It belongs to God.' 'No!' says the man in Moscow, 'It belongs to everyone.' I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose... TKD
>>535359325>let's just cap innovation with an 80% tax hike kill yourself
>>535357360The most ignored problem with communism is that it's not an improvement over capitalism. Go back to the drawing board.
>>535357360In theory both capitalism and communism works but the inherent corruption from human nature ruins both. Life is really about understanding that the core issue isn't left versus right but good versus evil.
>>535357360historical materialism is based on the flawed premise that progress naturally occurs and then gets bottlenecked by the ruling class and all we have to focus on doing is killing the ruling class when ever that happen.dont get me started on diamat
>>535359870Lmao. You will never be a billionaire. No matter how hard you simp, your gay fantasy Elon is never write you a $MM cheque.
>>535360206>iswill
>>535360206and? At least I don't have to lie to myself and call this justice when it is the same petty level of envy that you find in schoolyards across the world.>u jelly faggot?
>>535359325>Simply implement an 80% tax on corporate profits, 80% on dividends (on payout), and 80% on stock buybacks, and you cripple the billionaire parasite machine.Have you even bothered to check whether this has been tried before committing to your opinion?They'll just leave, and take their money with them.>we won't let them move or liquidate their assetsSo you plan to nationalize it. Have you seen how that works out in every country that's done it? Because Africa does this a lot, then wonders why nobody will invest in them.>it would work if a major power did itYou mean China or the USSR?What you need to understand is that billionaires are world citizens. They can go anywhere trivially. They will always go to the country that offers them the best deal. There are several micronations built entirely on catering to them- Switzerland, Singapore, Bahamas, UAE/Dubai, Malta, Andorra, etc. If you fuck with any billionaire, they will all immediately and collectively do everything in their power to lock you out of the global economy. This includes:1) Having every company they own refuse to work or trade with your nation. 2) Funding your political opponents3) Buying mercenaries/assassins.To get around this you need the cooperation of every nation, autocratic power, and firm military strength. In other words, precisely what the USSR tried. It failed because money isn't the problem. Power is. And if you concentrate power in the military or politbureau, that becomes exactly as corrupt and parasitic as the bankers you murdered, except the billionaires benefitted from a functioning market whereas the military police-state doesn't necessarily care since they can take what they need for themselves by force.>>535357360So in reality, communism is all of the corruption you originally had, but with none of the functional economy.
>>535357360It kills millions of people every time it's implemented
It doesn't account for the inherent greed and evil of man that corrupts all political leaders.
>>535357360Its incentives optimize for complacency. The very best possible outcome of communism, even without the mass killings that usually go with it, is stagnation and failure.
>>535360724Simp.
it doesn't work
>>535360753Once we have domestic production of military goods, those micro"nations" will give up those billionaires or face the US military (assuming JSOC fails to assassinate the hiding billionaires with Tier 1 crews). This is no longer a joke, this is national security and racial punishment because, let's be honest, most of them are jews.
Is Hatsune Miku a musical instrument?
>>535361829I'm not saying its impossible for a military to kill the bankers. It's been done. It just ends up exactly as corrupt but now you don't have an economy.Singapore is all rich CCP members who fled the country once they bought enough foreign assets to do so, most of whom personally participated in killing bankers in their own dysfunctional hell hole. Singapore (and every other micronation) won't sell out its billionaires because that's literally the only reason it exists and its only source of wealth. Betray one without the consent of the rest, and the entire country may as well be an Indonesian village without power within a decade. They're happy to partner with the US for security, but if we wanted to eliminate their economy full stop they will resist that with everything at their disposal. The primary thing at their disposal is money, so they'll offer that as a bounty to whoever steps up for their defense. Probably China, ironically- the very country they fled because it wants to steal their shit. If the US went to total war with the entire world somehow united against them, I'd still wager the US would win. Which is why every single country in the world is so invested in US politics and why this autistic shitposting forum in particular is targeted by foreign military PSYOPS. But it would be a pyrrhic victory you realize. You'll have created a global insurgency that hates you for centuries since you destroyed the global economy. You can't nationalize the world. You won't be able to govern any of the ruins.Things won't be great at home either- not only will there no longer be imports, but there won't be anywhere to export to either, so fewer jobs, etc. Global great depression. Out of necessity, you'll need to ensure everyone in the military gets paid first even if the economy can't support it. Otherwise you get an instant coup and/or logistics failure. Now you're looking at total military despotism. Regime dies in 2 generations.
>>535360879It's more subtle than this, actually. Communists absolutely think they understand greed. That's the entire reason they think they're righteous.But greed is surprisingly irrelevant. Most of "greed" is actually insecurity. When you're extremely poor, you live in anarchy because the police aren't paid enough to deal with your fucking ghetto. When you're extremely rich, you also live in anarchy, because nobody can afford to outbid the other elites who might want you dead. Police, judges, assassins, the very laws themselves are for sale at the right price. If not through lobbying, then by just getting a micronation to cater to you in exchange for doing business there. Your real competition is other elites who want to outbid you and take control of said police/military/government/cartel assassins. Sufficiently organized, they can kill and rob you, or get a monopoly, or pursue whatever else it is they want that you oppose (else you'd be in their party already). The only way to stay secure is to outbid them. Which means you have to make more money than them to make a better offer. Thus you need obscene wealth. You're in an arms race to be the biggest man. Because the second biggest man "dies of a heart attack" every time Xi is up for "reelection".It's not greed. Not really. Its necessity.
>>535357611Then why does it work in Denmark?
>>535365338If I ventured to guess, I'd say American subsidization.For starters, you don't have a military. These are very burdensome on a state to maintain, so a surplus without one is actually quite incredible. And there's no point in you having one because even if you spent your entire GDP on it, you wouldn't compete with the US military. That's the reason we keep ours so strong. So everyone else democratically votes for gibs instead. And without a military, we can do what we want unopposed on the world stage.Second, you benefit from American innovation. Almost every tech company is American. Tech as it exists today is built on venture capital. Billionaires speculate on penny stocks, 99.99% fail and the one success makes back 100x what they lost. You can't do this in a redistribution economy. You can't even do it on a publicly traded market because it requires immense loss tolerance that a fund manager can't attempt without being fired. Billionaires lose literal billions on mostly scams to find the black swan, and this in fact drives the entire economy and tech tree forward globally.
>>535357360It's antisemitic.
