wich means that nobody would be able to own things that are used to produce other things
Then that's dumb.
How can you produce something without it being owned?
Unless you want to be anprim that wont work.
you produce for exchange
not for profit
or
Profit is from what you produce.
you could get paid depending on the amount of products you make
It also help inflation. And the economy as a whole.
you dont need *profit*, thats the key aspect of communism
the state would wn the means of production
own*
Which would inevitably be abused.
not really
Working for the government isnt something people should do.
well yes, i mean thats another issue
Lenin didnt abuse that
Castro didnt
And yes really. It has happened many times.
Ho Chi Min didnt
He did.
but thats not a critique of the economic system though... all systems are vulnerable to abuse from the officials / planners, etc
thats true
Ho chi min was smart but he wasnt a smart politician.
@Larry Skywalker true but my main critique is the ability to abused.
what i want to say is, in a capitalist system more than half of the profit you produce gets sucked off by your boss
Communism can be abused much easier.
in a communist system you would get full profit for your work
But this time your profit goes to people who dont earn it. Or goes to people who the state says earns it.
no, it doesnt
it goes for you
You make it sound attractive.
its your work, so you get the profit
Its not your work. The state own your production.
You're merely pawns of government in that situation.
By work and law.
Meaning you give them much more control.
no, the state owns the means of profuction
Control not necessary for them.
