The best you can do is control it for a time.
No, sorry, this is incorrect. There are much more efficient and fair modes of production out there. Case in point would be Cuba, or China. The leaps and bounds they've made in spite of the largest and most murderous economic power in the world trying to sabotage them every step of the way should be evidence enough of that.
The most efficient mode of production doesn’t really matter if you want your economy to thrive, helping the working class does, and China is now better at than than the US. That’s why they’re doing well, not because they’re less capitalist. Capitalism can help the working class more than hurt it just as easily as not.
Sorry but here again you're just wrong on a factual level. China is not capitalist. Read whatever Cowbee writes, they're usually good at explaining things.
There are no capitalists in China, China itself is the capitalist.
This doesn't make any sense.
No, it makes dollars!
Lol
You're a very entertaining poster
I think I see the confusion. A capitalist is someone who owns a significant amount of capital. China obviously has capitalists. Liberalism is the philosophy of capitalism. China does have liberals, but there's been some pushback over the last decade or so.
Since Tiananmen Square.
Well said!
