An economic system based more on competition than collaboration will not only fail to solve humanity’s greatest challenges over the next 100 years. It actually created most of them & if allowed to will perpetuate them. We need a fundamental disruption of our economic status quo.

I support a mix of socialism and highly regulated free market capitalism.

Socialism and capitalism are not compatible. An economy is either controlled by the workers or it is not.

There are many countries that in fact do mix them! For that matter, public schools and police and fire departments are basically socialist institutions. We ourselves have a mixed economy.

The freedom in free market is freedom from regulations. You cannot regulate a free market, you can only have a less free market.

It's amazing how you're pretending gov doesn't have immoral and tyrannical monopolies on legislature, education academia requirements, EMS, law enforcement and military. Such disingenuous pretending is traitorous to all people who value real freedom and real consent.

The way another tyrant gov operates has NOTHING to do with my rights and my freedom here or anywhere I go. Rights pre-exist all govs in every country around the world. All govs are corporations. Read that again. They ARE corporations. They're not bands of do gooders. Research it.

You should be embarrassed by this tweet, but you won't be.

"highly regulated" and "free market" doesnt belong in the same sentence😂😂😂

A “mixed” economy is why we are 30 trillion in debt. We haven’t been a free market economy since the 50s. lazy/unproductive people and government officials figured out they could vote for more free cookies by controlling the markets... it’s been a downhill ride

Basically?? What does that even mean? Police and fire departments are elements of a civilized society, they have nothing to do with socialism as an ideology. Lenin (who actually understood what it is) said, “the goal of socialism is communism”.
Replying to @marwilliamson @TheRockettMann
Police and fire departments are not means of production

And those institutions are failing. Miserably.
