gollark: I mean, theoretically there are some upsides with central planning, like not having the various problems with dealing with externalities and tragedies of the commons (how do you pluralize that) and competition-y issues of our decentralized market systems, but it also... doesn't actually work very well.
gollark: I do, but that isn't really what "communism" is as much as a nice thing people say it would do.
gollark: I don't consider it even a particularly admirable goal. At least not the centrally planned version (people seem to disagree a lot on the definitions).
gollark: I don't think that makes much sense either honestly. I mean, the whole point of... political systems... is that they organize people in some way. If they don't work on people in ways you could probably point out very easily theoretically, they are not very good.
gollark: inb4 "but capitalism kills literally everyone who dies in worse-off countries"
