The capitalist's mantra

[Toddsterpatriot]

The idea that "private business is always more efficient than state business" is false. It is a soft vs. wet comparison. It would be more accurate to say, "the 1% of business that survives is more efficient than state business.

And that's the point.

It's only a step from this excommunication to the determination that some nations/races are not equal to others. No wonder the capitalists are saving Nazism as a last resort for their own salvation.

Kill the greedy kulaks, eh comrade?

And that's the point.

Well, yes, that's a point. It's that 1% that then starts pulling money from the state. And the lobbyists of this 1% assure everyone that without the help to this 1% we will all die.
People who defend capitalism don't take into account that capitalism disappeared along with the powdered wigs.

No, idiot, the point is that failing companies fail and failing government keeps spending even more.
How's that communism working out for Mother Russia?

How much money can we suck out of this until it dies?

Yep. Pretty much the entire point of owning or operating a business.

There was no communism in the USSR, honey. Communism was the goal.
And on the question of how "communism" worked for Russia - well, from a country devastated by the Civil War (thanks to the Entente countries for that) the communists created in a very short time a country capable of surpassing production and defeating the vanguard of world imperialism - Nazi Germany.
And then, overcoming enormous destruction and unimaginable human losses, they rebuilt the economy and led mankind into outer space.
People build socialism, they create it. In this process, both mistakes and outright sabotage and betrayal are possible. Which is what happened in the Soviet Union, but the idea remained and the future of mankind is behind it, if it wants to survive.

So, it sucked. Bad.
