    Are you familiar with anti-trust laws ? Anti-corruption laws ?

    According to you they shouldn’t exist, because a crafty psychopath will get in anyway & yes you do love being greedy as long as it benefits you, why else would you be defending capitalism.

    Socialism HAS been tried & it works. You see I want everyone to get welfare, because with it you can have a safety net against the abusive owner-class. BTW, I’ve never been on reddit (I don’t even have a twitter account)

      So I’ll be upfront and say i don’t know shit about socialism as a concept.

      Do you have any examples of socialism that has worked (or is currently working) at modern nation scales ?

      I’m genuinely not picking a fight, just looking for examples to read up on.

        Cuba, Laos, Vietnam & the state of Kerala in India. China too (but they shifted to state-capitalism). Most of Latin America were electing socialist leaders as well. (Until some coup came along)
