Workers control the state in a socialist order, not the other way around.Sadly, not a joke. Socialism views labor as property of the state. Do you deny that workers are "physical and non-financial inputs used in the production of goods and services with economic value."
as you can see the Chinese profit as well....they have also made some advance since 2017....their main clients are rogue state sponsors of terror.Yes, the Chinese profit from war as well.....they make a lot of weapons and sell them....some of their biggest clients have been some of the most oppressive regimes as well....Iran, Iraq, North Korea, Pakistan, and Myanmar (Thailand is also a major client)
Arms sales are a global problem without any realistic solution.

You still don’t understand what revenue is, that makes you stupidI was referring to corporate balance sheets which currently optimize shareholder income over employee income, treating workers as an expense and not an asset:You reporting taxes on the money retained in your pocket?
Or, when you use it to purchase product?
"Capital Income + Retained earnings = Revenue – (Employee income + Cost of materials)
"Kelly uses some simple algebra to show that this formula could just as easily be re-written as:
"Employee income + Retained earnings = Revenue – (Capital income + Cost of materials)
"In other words, the company could just as easily be optimized to maximize employee income.
"All it takes is a perspective shift. Kelly then talks about the fact that employees don’t even show up on the corporate balance sheet.
"That’s because employees are seen as an expense, not an asset, despite the common phrase 'our employees are our greatest assets.'"

economic inequality is a myth.A flat tax wouldn't do anything to reduce economic inequality in the US. In fact, it might make it worse.And the rate would not have to be very high to be revenue neutral.
Should The U.S. Switch To A Flat Tax?.
"In addition, a flat tax may not be as fair as one would think.
"A gradual tax system does allow for things like wealth redistribution, which many have argued is a major benefit to society.
"And a flat tax could also give middle-class families an extra burden.
"If someone making one million per year has to pay 18% of his income in taxes, he still has netted $820,000 for the year, a figure which still has great purchasing power.
"But a person making $50,000 per year is left with $41,000 per year; that difference can influence fiscal decisions, like purchasing a new car versus a used car, whether to place a down payment on a house or affording either a state school or private college, extremely tough for people who make closer to the national median income level.
"In addition, when a group of countries near each other enact a flat tax, it creates a race towards the bottom; in order to compete, nations must keep on lowering their tax rates, a problem which could lead to fiscal instability."
And yet , why have " socialism advocates " not gotten off their self aggrandized , arrogant , rears to practice what they preach by founding their own private businesses and philanthropic foundations , rather than aspiring to be bureaucratic , authoritarian , dictatorial , despotism of government ?A for-profit business has little alternative to maximizing profit in spite of any negative externalities to society as a whole.

You posed the question, "what about capitalism depends on fraud"?Your post in no way backs up your claim. It's just more of your tedious socialist propaganda.
Capitalism is a game in which each side is motivated by self-interest alone which means what one wins is at the expense of another or a zero-sum game.Like here, for example - you claim capitalism is a zero-sum game. I call you on it and you simply use it as an opportunity to post unrelated propaganda.

I'll try to simplify.Once again, your response is a non-sequitur. I asked if you think we should try to minimize government being used to advance the interests of one element of society over those of another. Do you think that's a good thing? What about equal protection?
