Wow, there are 100 million people who would disagree with the idea that their countries were better off after they got rid of their capitalists, if they were alive to say so.
Oh, good, nothing like Bircher Bullshit numbers to start off the day.
See, here's where your education fails you. You got all the trendy buzz words from your tweed wearing, dope smoking, living in a van down by the river dweebs that you admired so much when you were a kid, but they failed to inform you that the only way a command and control economy lasts more than a few years without collapse is through force, and as we have seen, that force results in a lot of otherwise unnecessary death.
China is still a command economy. They are beating our asses. The Europeans are social-democracies. They are beating our asses...
Tell us about how Venezuela became so much better off, richer and more prosperous when they got rid of their capitalists. Tell us about North Korea and Cuba.
You mean the country that we punished for the last 20 years (or 60 in the case of Cuba) for picking an economic system we don't like? Hey fuck that, buddy, a few weeks of Covid, we had empty shelves, too.
