I’m posting this in Socialism, so the obvious answer is that most people here would think socialism is the perfect system. But what do you mean by socialism?
Most Scandinavian countries are social democracies with regulated capitalist economies, progressive taxation and strong social programs. People who live in countries like this, Finland for instance, are consistently rated as some of the happiest people in the world. What would your perfect system look like? Try to give some details.
I identify as a capitalist who thinks government should provide things that are vital, like healthcare, education, military, etc. I also think the government should take the initiative on matters vital to modern life and national security. For instance, baseline energy generation, smart grid energy distribution, a national public data network (that private companies could lease bandwidth on, like the US phone system used to be), funding scientific and medical research in order to put the results in the public domain. I don’t think anyone making less than median income should have to pay any taxes. Taxes would be phased in progressively on income above the median.
Those are some of my ideas. I’d like to hear some of yours.
I say communist, but when someone say communist sudderly its recall the dictatorship forge in war and poverty, so become hardly explain the view to people bonded to this mentality. Playing with capitalism will never give you back things like healthcare or education, its planned to let few win the jackpot and so far we go so less this few are, till a bunch of them becomes the ruler of the planet and the 99% fighting in underground pits for get the rat meat. If we really care about others we should looking for a communist mind, sharing and leveling all to let no one dying of famine or sickness. Like if salary should be capped to 1.000€/$ for every human then will be possible to defeat the world hunger in every place of planet. But still no one cares, everyone wants to earn more, dosnt matter if half planet get killed, or nature collapse on emission, all matter in this society its earn. So the greedy, who sell bread, milk, cars or anything, rise the prises, people rush, getting a second and a thirth job, they sell granmother jewelry, buying chips on trade market, take loads of any kind, insane crazyness till someone, soon or later when enough is enough, will take the bread by brute force. I am looking forward to see people realize the meat machine they are inside and the reaction to break this chains.
