"social ownership of the means of production."?
The Soviets TRIED that. Remember the "5-year plans"?
They were ALWAYS 5 years away....
That was supposedly a "Workers' Revolution". Leading to a "Workers; Paradise".
SOMEONE ALWAYS takes control of Socialism and perverts it to their own benefit.

For that matter, SOMEONE ALWAYS takes control of ANY System of Government. Why I'm a Libertarian.
Keep ALL Government AWAY from me! LIMIT it as much as possible. National Defense and infrastructure are the only VALID excuses for having a Government.

My post is about what HAPPENED everywhere it's been tried. Not about propaganda for ANY Political System.
I'm a Libertarian. We Despise Politics.
Look at the most shining example every Socialist always quotes: Sweden. Sweden is going back to Capitalism!
