U Capitalist or Communist?

[Maskin]

imagine that you live in a primitive history, in a tribe, many, many years ago ...
-
you invented the bronze ax ..
This ax will allow you to spend less energy than a stone one.

What will you do?
1. I will use the technology only for myself, as I will be a successful hunter, then the members of the Tribe will respect me.
but the members of the Tribe will never help me in a difficult situation, I must solve my problems on my own...

2. I will tell all members of the Tribe the technology, they will become successful hunters, but they will forget my "invitation"
..but the members of the Tribe will always come to Help me. They will protect me.

Neither.

I don't do -isms, because people who do tend not to look at what works, and what is right.

I don't support the CCP, but it's interesting to see what they're doing, what might work, what clearly doesn't work, and how it's all going to end up.

So the communists destroy their environment as typical of what communists always do.

then .. 2 people were born in the tribe ...
one of them became great-great-grandfather Adam Smith, the other - Karl Marx.
---
Karl Marx invented Surplus Value and the exploitation of man by man.
Adam Smith invented Private Property and the Free Market.
----
but..
the truth must be sought between these concepts

therefore, the members of the ancient tribe did not understand the great-great-grandfathers of Smith and Marx. They just ate them

Trying to equate modern economic systems to hunter-gatherer societies is apples and oranges. It is difficult for modern humans to comprehend the level of cooperation and societal obligation necessary to survive in the natural world. No one owned anything beyond what they could carry and every activity was directed towards the well being of the entire group.

I agree with you
modern society needs a new philosophy

How Communism Almost Ruined The First Thanksgiving

How Communism Almost Ruined The First Thanksgiving

Plymouth Colony was founded on the ideas of communal sharing. But two years of communism in practice left alive only a fraction of the original number of the Plymouth colonists. Realizing that, the elders of the colony decided to try something radically different: the introduction of private...

False dichotomy.
What this is doing in philosophy is a question.
"Capitalism" is simply an economic system, not even a classic "ism" to the extent of being a philosophy. "Communism" is a very general term that could be applied to many human societal adaptations over time. Mostly, today, it refers to some form of Marxist-philosophy based governments, all of which have earned a deserved bad reputation.

In today time many humans would not know how to work for the common good of the community and it is not taught any longer.

Communism will always fail because of greed, envy and sloth and to believe you can rid society of any of those three, well you are delusional then.

You have to have a mix of socialism and capitalism ( Not Communism ) and understand that we shouldn’t lower our standards but raise the people up to the highest standard possible in life when it come to education and healthcare.

Let me be clear no one is ever equal but that does not mean we as a society should be like the Hermit Crab and climb on top of each other to be the Kings of nothing...

In the end if I had the axe I would teach my society how to create their own, use it wisely and learn to work together while understanding not everyone will be able to learn to use that axe so they will have to be taught to gather and other jobs...

Hold a vote and see if they get the pit or they get the dunce hat...

In the end if I had the axe and I was a commie rat, I would teach my friends how to create their own, and use it as a military weapon. Understanding not everyone will agree with our ideas, by using the axe we can control the rest of the tribe so they will have to gather and work other jobs to make life easier for me and my friends..

level of cooperation and societal obligation

Why do people like Chuck Schumer, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and Obama/Biden have millions of dollars? Seems that they love to make their millions while offering morons like you minimum wages.....
