"When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - When you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - When you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you-When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - You may know that your society is doomed."~ Ayn Rand
I will note that only retarded conjobZ can be beguiled into believing that, somehow, SoshaliZm is to blame for capitalist oligarchy's problems.Whose roads did those trucks travel on carrying the materials from point A to point B? Who paid for those roads? Who built the electrical substations that those companies got to utilize? Oh, the taxpayer?
Ayn Rand was a schmuck, she should have went and lived in some cattle town with no public services and walked through the horse**** in the mudstrip they call a steet after ****ing in a bucket.
She sure liked that indoor plumbing I'll bet, paid for by the taxpayer. And weknow that companies pay very little in taxes.

Naw d00d, I was told by retarded c0njobZ that the BILLYUHNAREZ work 300 hours/week and are all 160+ geniuses making society into a utopia.Answer this question. Did most financial billionaires make their money from insider trading, tax evasion, offshore accounts, being in the clan or organised crime?

The aim of socialism is for the state to direct economic policy, whether it relates to international trade, specialization (e.g. focusing on gaining a comparative advantage in industries like semiconductor equipment or automobiles), building out the nation's infrastructure, regulating private investment (capital flows), setting union policies, and taking ownership of key industries if necessary (not required in all cases).*GHETTOBLASTER » 25 Feb 2026, 7:17 pm » wrote: ↑ The aim of socialism is to get your most productive, hard working and skilled people to share their wealth with our least productive and lazy people...right...?

The easier you make life for our poorest people ...the more unwanted babies / future felons they tend to poop out.

How generous or minimal a welfare state is not relevant. The Soviet Union required everyone to have a job (whether that's a good or bad thing is another question) and didn't pay people to stay at home unless they were actually unable to work.
