Socialism is entirely about monopolies. The states decides the winners and losers in every endeavor.
The only monopoly in socialism is the state, they control everything.
It should be pointed out that it is the right what is wanting the government to get involved, they are wanting the government to punish companies for their success.
Another silly libertarian idea. States aren’t socialism. Socialism is the belief that wealth should be redistributed.
Monopolies arent socialism either.
Socialism: a political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.
In true socialism there is no wealth to be redistributed.
But you were correct, Monopolies aren't socialism. So you got your post half right.
Ah the “true socialism “. Just hasn’t been tried right?
It has been tried but it always fails due to human nature.
Humans are greedy and lazy by nature. This is why socialism cannot ever work.
Some places have a mix of socialism and capitalism that is working (Norway comes to mind and China come to mind). I do not wish our country to become either of those
So government *isnt* socialism now?
