the socialism advocated for today is market socialism
ie we dont abolish the markets that exist in capitalism
theyre good and useful
we just have extremely heavy restrictions on ownership
which is never good for the markets
ie if a company gets above $x marketcap, its either nationalised or mutualised
see thats where youre wrong
point to a single example where thats been true
(i can point to a million examples of private ownership going wrong)
I´ll give you an example: lets say you put the nationalisation cap to 10 billion in revenue. Now tell me, why tf should I develope my company to reach that 10 billion revenue mark? I´ll just keep it in the 9 billion mark.
Companies will basically be told "DONT FUCKING GROW OR WE NATIONALISE U"
well i personally advocate for discretion
rather than particular number
BUT
that just promotes insecurity
i know
so if we did have to use a number
we dont have to mandate nationalisation
it can be mutualisation
ie the workers all get a slice of the revenues
we allow the original owner to have the same piece he had before
so there is still inequality generated by successful entrepreneurship
but its capped
it doeswent work like that
yea so then debunk it bud
owner has 100% of the shares
now you give the company to the people
but he still has the same amount of shares?
does not compute
no omfg
GG @Green Syndicalism, you just advanced to level 2!
okay let me make it clearer
say you hold 100 shares
and your net revenues are say $100
each share is worth about $1 in net revenue
if $100 was the mutualisation or nationalisation mark
we hand everyone in the company 1 share each, but each share is divided amongst the net profits *above the $100 in net revenue*
so the owner's shares are fundamentally worth a different amount to the newly issued shares
and they are left untouched
you know how in capitalism we have different classes of shares?
