Banning monopolies is the best thing about regulated capitalism
the promotion of competition avoiding things such as insider trading, price fixing, etc.
Corrupt means of achieving wealth that can all be decided in an ideal free market
The key word is ideal because it can fail just like socialism can
Then you should support splitting up companies such a Amazon, Facebook, Apple
I do
Amazon is a predator
and its fucked
Capitalism is shit
Thats why it needs to be regulated to succeed
otherwise you have crippling poverty
How can someone realistically believe capitalism will survive the rise of automation?
nothing will survive the rise of automation
the only people will be the rich of the rich
Not with socialism
Socialism is no different
It is very different
How would socialism defeat the rise of automation
Completely opposite
if I start a company in a socialist world with robots as workers
Ok I have to stop using socialism
Ive heard the theory on why socialism would survive
continue
You can use socialism
Government controlled economy then
I know what you mean
its easier to put it into one word
The government owns all of the companies
So it redistributes wealth
As the cost of products gets closer to 0, everyone can live with abundance
So the government receives the means of production?
Yes
Thats fascism lmao
Ok then Im a fascist
Theres nothing inherently wrong with fascism on the surface
But it doesnt end well
for that to happen you have to live in a world without greed
People are greedy and theres no changing that
I mean it would be democratic, so hopefully, the people would control the means of production
in a socialist or fascist world someone would take control
