Just got in to this with some friends the other day. They all recognize capitalism bad, but we can't do communism, you see, because communism bad. What is communism? Well communism is stalin 1984 big spoon no food, of course. So we have to do Something Else. What else? They don't know, but there must be something. Why has there never been something else that didn't just removed in to capitalism or fascism? They don't know, but there must be Something Else. How are you going to solve the problem that private property ownership tends towards monopoly and property owners will always band up to remove regulations against them? They don't know but there must be Something Else.
We have the fucking solution, we've had it for like 150 years!
