If a socialist argues now we have XYZ factor. They can demonstrate that they have it and it works. It's a free country and they can start a bunch of socialist companies and demonstrate how well they work. One of the beauties of capitalism is that everyone has always been free to organize their economic activity anyway they want. If socialism worked we would have a socialist economy by now but there has never been even one single demonstration project.

We at least agree socialism doesn't work, but that wasn't my argument

Why not tell us what your argument was?

It's up the thread

Why do you need to have six different threads all saying the same thing?
