Aren't they all fragile? They can't survive when capitalists countries are mean to them.
To answer your question, a state isn't going to solve it, communism is.
Communism hasn't solved any issues yet. Why is it going to solve this one?
Capitalists are stumped, they don't have a solution to advance automation replacing wage-labor, we communists do.
Excellent! What is the commie solution?
Think Todd, just because communism supposedly hasn't solved anything in the past, it doesn't imply that conditions won't exist in the future that will require a communist solution. Just because a tool hasn't solved anything for me in the past, doesn't really warrant me throwing it away, because I might need that tool in the future.
Communism is either primitive, present in hunter-gatherer societies...
.. or in a very advanced, high-tech civilization.
It's at the opposite ends of the human evolutionary spectrum of production. We're now getting so advanced in the area of production that we will need to socialize and democratize it or we will become useless and forced into scarcity. Communism will become a necessity unless the working class wants to be consigned to the compost heap by the wealthy capitalist class. The solution is that you and I and everyone else, owns the means of production together, and we produce everything to meet our needs.
The paying consumer will be eliminated by technology, that's why all of these billionaires want to give everyone a government check or UBI i.e. Universal Basic Income. They see the writing on the wall and know that advanced automation will kill the market and strip them of their unique social status as capitalists. Essentially, they want the government (the public), to bail them out, again. A monthly UBI bailout, in order to stop the pitchforks from coming out when tens of millions of Americans start going hungry.
The solution is simple to identify, and harder to implement but doable and necessary
(I'm not going to pretend it's going to be easy). The American people take common ownership of the means of production. We organize our economy in such a way that we employ technology
(autonomous systems, robotics, artificial intelligence, self-driving vehicles, nanotechnology, supercomputers. etc) to produce everything that we consume without money or markets. The present profit motive of production has to be replaced with the common need of the people. We produce products and services, not to sell them, but rather simply to consume (use) them.
We will automate everything we can from the extraction of raw materials (mining), to the storage and delivery of the finished product. Each person that can work, will work 20 hours weekly supervising the system
(the robots, the convoy of twenty self-driving 18-wheelers.etc). It's a complete restructuring of our economy, government, and society requiring a massive social movement that will provide guidance, education, resources, and everything needed for the American people to establish this new economic and political order. It's not going to be easy, but it has to be done.
No one will lose what they presently have as far as their homes, lands, and other properties. The right to own firearms, including combat rifles, along with ammunition will be respected. Right from the outset, those who claim the communist want to take away what they work so hard to acquire, are wrong. American communism respects people's human rights and their personal possessions, which include their homes, lands, and everything that is theirs.
The solution is American democratic communism. We all own the means of production together. We organize production to meet our needs.
