And what happens when the Netherlands goes into recession?

2017-07-06 17:02:24 UTC  

When all those social democratic policies can't be afforded anymore?

2017-07-06 17:02:35 UTC  

When the businessmen bleed money?

2017-07-06 17:03:01 UTC  

Your perfect little paradise won't exist anymore.

2017-07-06 17:03:09 UTC  

That's what is happening in Scandinavia.

2017-07-06 17:03:14 UTC  

It's an international problem.

2017-07-06 17:03:48 UTC  

If a serious economic collapse happen anything can happen

2017-07-06 17:04:13 UTC  

Fascism, communism, libertarian small government, all on the table

2017-07-06 17:04:15 UTC  

It's very visible what happens.

2017-07-06 17:04:24 UTC  

Especially in modern times.

2017-07-06 17:04:25 UTC  

I don't care for the current system either

2017-07-06 17:04:32 UTC  

the EU is a cancer

2017-07-06 17:04:40 UTC  

Then why the hell are you arguing against Socialism?

2017-07-06 17:04:46 UTC  

Real socialists are anti-EU

2017-07-06 17:04:58 UTC  

I know, one of the few good things about them

2017-07-06 17:05:12 UTC  

Socialists aren't my top enemy, but they're up there

2017-07-06 17:05:18 UTC  

The only way for actual efficiency is through worker's control of the economy.

2017-07-06 17:05:22 UTC  

Period.

2017-07-06 17:05:42 UTC  

No third-party regulations from the state, where it can be bribed and legislated out of existence.

2017-07-06 17:06:19 UTC  

I don't think so, the best people in the sector are the best, simply because they'd get richer for their better services, something stifled currently by governments colluding with big business

2017-07-06 17:06:33 UTC  

I agree with your last point, but not on how to do it

2017-07-06 17:06:44 UTC  

A bigger socialist government is just as volnurable

2017-07-06 17:07:28 UTC  

I disagree. People who are rich aren't rich necessarily for being "the better" at services.

2017-07-06 17:07:33 UTC  

Bankers scam people all the time

2017-07-06 17:07:34 UTC  

"real socialists"

2017-07-06 17:07:40 UTC  

Wells Fargo just got caught doing it.

2017-07-06 17:08:01 UTC  

COMMUNISM HAS NEVER BEEN TRIED BEFORE

2017-07-06 17:08:12 UTC  

True, but that's because they can buy power from the governments, shrink the governments in areas it's not needed and you get fair competition

2017-07-06 17:08:35 UTC  

No bailouts for one

2017-07-06 17:09:00 UTC  

But when this "shrinkage" goes on, it eliminates the protections of the working-class. In reality, to the bourgeoisie, it's an opportunity for investment.

2017-07-06 17:09:06 UTC  

Let's take my country for example, America.

2017-07-06 17:10:00 UTC  

We're currently trying to repeal Obamacare (a shitty system nonetheless) to free the healthcare market up, so people may invest. Democrats and Republicans have their own lobbyists and rich people they appeal to, and Obamacare represented another side of that bourgeois interest.

2017-07-06 17:10:05 UTC  

get what I mean?

2017-07-06 17:10:27 UTC  

The current system is fucked, we both agree

2017-07-06 17:10:45 UTC  

No fan of the neocons and neo libs

2017-07-06 17:11:11 UTC  

I would say you are more Libertarian, but the thing is, self-regulation with capitalism is unattainable. That's why we have regulations come about in the first place.

2017-07-06 17:11:16 UTC  

And we end up in the same cycle.

2017-07-06 17:11:39 UTC  

A lot of regulation is very positive for certain sectors though

2017-07-06 17:11:56 UTC  

If you agree those politicians are bought and paid for, they're not making it easier for new businesses

2017-07-06 17:12:05 UTC  

Take the high tax for private businesses for example
