Got it, but I do think capitalism is bound to create inequality. Also, also people get drunk with power, the tendency of turning the rules around to become pseudo capitalism is very high (hence why we are here).
But I still prefer capitalism to communism. Only wish the government will help us and not control us. That sweet spot.
Ur absolutely right…at some point it has to create “inequality”. I do feel that’s a natural occurrence in a free market though. Game theory says it will always be winners and losers, just like there will always be people who work harder or smarter than others.
But I would say people becoming “drunk w/ power” is the biggest issue, not capitalism itself. That’s the fight (evident in the “fight” happening here on HIVE)
Ha, if I HAVE to pick one, a capitalist country 100% because I'm Venezuelan and fuck communism, fuck socialism, that doesn't work, has never worked and will never work.
Any country that has had a version of it that kinda works has embraced capitalism into it.
If I could pick other choice, a balance were we work to live but don't live to work would be the best. Where people are actually there to make things work for each other and not to fill their own bags only ( which is what communism and socialism do btw, they make you live poor so they can be richer)
There you can see what communists actually behave, and how they have turned that country into a miserable place.
People have found ways to thrive, we have many Cubans on Hive doing amazing things, but that is despite what their country has been going through for decades.
Both or neither 🤣 I want to be somewhere where everyone is experimenting with their ideals and learning from everyone’s experiments. I want to see autonomous areas everywhere all over the world. People should be able to opt in or out of whatever governance system they are in
I don’t think a country as a whole has ever embraced this but you can still find it because the state either doesn’t notice or doesn’t see it as a threat while it’s small. I’ve found many experimental communities around the world. Pay what you want cafes, towns that have their own currency or squats (abandoned buildings that people use as art spaces or dwellings, collective farming, homeless villages, nudist communities, homeschool communities, alternative schooling, gift economy, I could go on and on. It’s out there if you look for it.
You find these even in highly developed countries. Germany has a city where the old DM deutsche MArk is still accepted and in Austria we have some squat places and pay as you want shops.
I found many interesting things in Asia too, way more than people imagine, although they tend to be harder to find, probably because the population density means they become hard to manage if they get too popular. I know Europe is full of squats, I heard of a whole squat town in Slovenia.
Often they develop as a result of the living cost becoming too high and people coming up with creative ways to survive and have fun.
they generally don’t try to scale up but instead try to inspire offshoot communities that overlap. Decentralization without technology
I find the ones that survive are crowdsourced, group projects. Sometimes they have a leader, sometimes core members. They don’t work if getting rich is the goal but they can make it much easier to form a healthy social ecosystem that will allow you to focus on doing what you love.
I guess you could say they focus more on needs than wants but also more on enjoying life without luxury. This is a generalization, I’m sure you can find a few that are different! Crypto sure is!
I think it’s just an issue of trust and emotional maturity. If we have more of that, things get easier more abundant and more fun with or without the money.
For me, a solid long term strategy in crypto is where I seek more.
capitalist hands down...but not pseudo capitalism. thats the state we're (US) in now

I'm rethreading this.
On point
Much love…yea ur initial thread made me realize we’re seeing that dynamic play out in real time smh

I one hundred percent agree with you on this statement
The dream life.
People like to mention countries that are not even socialist nor communist as successful examples... I don't see them wanting to be like Cuba...
so Cuba it is... I will go and learn about that country in the evening after work

wow, it seems I saw a Cuba community on the list of community here. I would go and check that community out. It's been educational talking to you

Doesn't seem like any country has that at the moment. Do you think we could come up with a virtual country that does that?

And is it sustainable?
Could work whiles it's small but as they scale up it may be difficult if next to impossible.
But I get your point.

I guess it's only a few people on this planet that can leave that way without being drawn by the human desire to seeks for more.
I love your explanation of things had to rethread it
