What’s your proof? Can you point me to a society that is 100% functional under socialism and never has these issues?
Leading question, I know, but the reason there’s not more support for this idea is that it’s hard to prove.
Me: capitalism is inherently flawed and will inevitably cause poverty. I don't know if socialism is the answer but capitalism is the problem.
You: demands proof of perfect socialist society
Take these ideas and use your own brain to imagine the results.
Capitalism: rewards you for being selfish.
Socialism: rewards you for being alive.
Which one do you think is going to incentivise asshole behaviour? And which one do you think will end up being marked by such behaviour?
