”Breadlines? Food shortages in stores? This is just gommulism Eastern Bloc blah blah!”
Yeah, except it's happening right now under capitalism, and obviously the system isn't stopping it from happening, which is intended behavior. Not that wild, I guess. Uhh…one time I saw someone say Canada trying to implement a digital currency was communist…somehow?
I think the problem here is that it's only happening to the poor. The shelves might as well be empty if you can't afford anything on them.
