Actually capitalism owns bones and democracy has proven that the common man is completely incapable of having any degree of responsibility over anyone else's life.

Like I still think its funny that anybody would want joe schmoe to have any more power than he already does. Unless your planned society plans on throwing the incompetant and lazy into a pit of rats, it will be no better than capitalism. The retard that voted for trump will not become less retarded because he now owns his own machining tools.

You will however ignore this fact and continue to post stupid bullshit in this thread and I will have to see it clog up my GBS first page. Which is unacceptable and further drives me into believing that the common man deserves to be put into a matrix like machine to be less of a bother. The real answer was solved by the Greeks long ago with the concept of aristocracy, the trouble is sorting out the wheat from the chaff. Once we figure out how to determine who the nobility and peasants are in an infallible manner, all economic debate of the past 2500 years will have been a great disastrous waste.

I can say this when their success is raised, and say they're really state capitalists when bad things are being discussed

You're loving stupid if you think classes don't have a real presence in biology. You are not on the level of Otto von Bismarck, Bill Gates or Grace Hopper. You are a plebian, a biological mundanity. You will not be able to take advantage of the resources that a proper elite would, and it would be a philosophical crime to pretend you and the billions like you deserve the same resources.

Also I imagine myself in a lab to be cannibalized in research as a neurological abnormality.

Except in the current system, we are capable of occasionally allocating proper resources to proper elites, rather than dragging them through the mud with the common swine.

The real solution is to find out how to achieve 100% accuracy instead of pretending like Marx's reversion to tribalism is a good idea.

Agreed, it's great that other businesses are going bankrupt, and that competition is being eliminated from the market, it is not important for capitalism after all.
