Karl Marx and Frederick Engels were philosophers, political theorists, and economists responsible for writing the communist manifesto, which is today probably the most widely recognized text outlining a system for a communal economy.
An economy where work is done to fulfill the needs of one's community rather than to satiate personal desires. An economy where goods and services are distributed by needs rather than by means.
An economy where people could not rest on the laurels of being land or capital owners to get by without ever needing to contribute any personal effort.
This system lies in direct contrast to the other extreme of the economic spectrum which is Laissez-Faire Capitalism.
Laissez-Faire fair literally translating from french to let it be or leave alone pretty much sums up this economic system. It advocates for leaving capitalism alone entirely to do it’s thing because no government can allocate resources as efficiently as the free market.
Both of these opposing theories are very extreme and for what its worth don’t exist in any modern economies anywhere around the world today, despite what some nations might have you believe.
So what are the economic arguments for and against a communist economic system?
What are the economic arguments for and against a completely free market?
And finally
Are there any examples of these extreme systems actually working throughout history?

Honestly to the subjective value lovers smiths labor theory of value or “Marx’s labor theory of value”, isn’t false. It’s just not all encompassing. I don’t know why we have to say “oh and btw labor is only valuable if it’s in demand” in a conversation about economics. Smith didn’t have to say it as the father of capitalism, why do we leftists have to constantly say this to subjective value lovers? And if value is subjective what’s wrong with using labor to value products? If something subjective it’s not one way or the other.
@marcuspacheco3815

Really? Because it's a terrible example the reason the Lamborghini costs more is simple. The demand exceeds the supply. Back when the Lamborghini was produced it was significantly less than a Toyota Corolla but now that 40 years have gone by and most of them have rusted away or been crashed the number of people who want one exceeds the number that exists. Therefore if you want one of the few that remain you must pay more money more money than the other people are willing to pay. If you asked the same question about a modern Lamborghini versus a modern Toyota well then the answer would be obvious a lot more material cost expertise and effort go into producing a modern Lamborghini than a modern Toyota. And the result is a vehicle that far exceeds the performance value looks and quality of the Toyota... All of those improvements come at a cost which raises the price. 🤦

As an aside to the EVE Online economy, you can't just change corporations and not have to pull up stakes and move and go through a rigorous vetting process. Assuming you belong to a corporation that is part of a large nullsec alliance which holds territory, to move to another alliance you would first need to quietly move your assets out of the territory of your current alliance without tipping them off that you're leaving, if they catch wind that you're heading for the exits they will usually immediately kick you out and seize or destroy what assets of yours they can. Once you've evacuated your assets to NPC controlled space you then have to go through a vetting process to get into your new alliance, due to the prevalance of spies in EVE it is extremely difficult if not impossible to move to an alliance which is the enemy of your former one, at least without either stealing a huge amount of assets or conduct some type of sabotage to the alliance you're leaving.

Well done. As an economist myself, I believe that efficiency is really the key. A central government can more efficiently maintain a defense force, the private sector can more efficiently allocate capital, electricity can be produced and delivered more efficiently at scale, and so on. Do wealthy people efficiently allocate capital, maybe, maybe not, but there is a good chance they got wealthy by being efficient to begin with. I think the real debate that rarely gets had is "What is government?" Is it a ruling body? Is it a caretaker? Is it a mechanism to ensure certain rights? What is it? @economicsexplained The answer is going to be different depending on who you ask. One of my best friends from college and I adamantly disagree on the role of government and thus have a hard time aligning on economic issues because of it.
@saeedbaig4249

Good question, and here it tends to lead away from pure economics and into political philosophy about what the government should do and even morally can do. It reminds me of the similar question of "What is the purpose of prison?" Is it to punish criminals? Rehabilitate criminals? Keep society safe from criminals? What if these goals conflict? (e.g. punishing a criminal more harshly, even if justified, might be counterproductive to their rehabilitation; letting a criminal out on bail/limited work in their best-interests of rehabilitation/reintigration into society might put the public at risk if they reoffend, compromising public safety).

@@piratenflipper That is also a philosophical and/or moral dilemma that is not easy to answer. When a company like Amazon extracts maximum value from workers for minimum wages, technically that IS efficiency.. Exploitation and efficiency have significant overlaps, and it is not so clear-cut whether humans are better off with or without it. For example: China's exploitation of cheap labour and smashing of unions has simultaneously lifted the largest amount of people out of poverty in human history, while at the same time raising living standards in the west through providing more cost-effective goods. Had China not done that, the west would not have outsourced most of their factories there, and today's China would look a lot more like India/Africa.

I learned a lot about socialism while minoring in sociology in college but that was years ago and I've mostly lost knowledge from my many courses back then. I came to this video and a few others to brush up on some of the information and I gotta say, you break down these concepts so fluidly and efficiently, I deeply appreciate your approach to content creation. Also, I especially liked your points on psychic profit and your example of subjective value with the vintage car and the Corolla. Keep up the great work.

Except that the vintage Lamborghini is worth more to society than a Toyota Corolla that was made in the same year. As Lamborghini's main product was farm tractors and decent ones at that, so they helped produce food for decades. While the Corolla from the same year had a life expectancy of two to five years and sucked to own. My stepfathers lasted just 18 months because it had no rust protection and parts just kept falling off it. When it was a few months old I accidentally slammed the door and the window fell into the door and shattered. My stepfather wasn't mad at all as previously the gearshift level had pulled out when he was driving it leaving it stuck in second gear. Frankly it was absolutely the worse car my family owned during my childhood...

TF2 was inspired by the US military in that specific lore case. BluFor and RedFor (now called OpFor) are terms for designating allied and enemy units in mock battles for training purposes. The goal is to pit commanders and units against each other using different hardware with the hopes of simulating what an actual battle will be, with Red Force given training manuals, statistics, and training regimes stolen from the Soviet Union. Veterans who left the army and started to work in business brought the practice with them, and now it's called "Red Teaming" or "Penetration Testing" in the business world and cyber security realms respectively. There wasn't a real cohesive narrative for Reliable Excavation and Demolition nor Builder's League United in the beginning, but it sorta grew into the two mock corporations you know of today.

Basically keep everything as local as physically possible.

A question here: In a laissez-faire capitalism, what is the difference between a private security company that collects a portion of your income for your "protection" and a mafia running a protection racket? Both are groups of armed and dangerous individuals able and willing to take part of your money under promise that you will be "safe" if you pay it. A follow up question: What stops a private security company from staging a coup and taking over the company to get more money out of it?

I think something critical missing here is the whole "alienation" of the worker issue. Especially when making the argument that an anarchistic society comes full circle and forms "countries" again. Yes, tribes, communities, etc would form..but the big difference is the issue of alienation is removed. The tribe grows organically, and each member feels that the work is owned by his or her self for their own organic community.

The standard of living of workers in Victorian Era cities had actually increased significantly. People tend to view living on a country farm as something wholesome, pure, and romantic. This is a modern myth. The farmer of the era was just as poor as their urban counterpart, but also lacked access to the amenities that cities provided. Cities were certainly less sanitary, but they were also far more likely to have a doctor, and if the city dweller lost their job, they could find another. If the farmer lost their crop, they starved. If the city worker lost a limb in an accident, they could sit out on the street and make money begging. The farmer has no such fallback. Cities were full of poor people because they attracted the poor, because they were good places to be poor. (See Edward Glaser’s *Triumph of the City* for further reading)

Most of the time it is the fact that investor-driven companies have the power to run in the red for as long as their investors continue to subsidize them, in the expectation that smaller companies that cannot do so (like most co-ops) will be driven from the market, allowing those investors large profits in the medium or long term driven by monpolistic forces. Just take a look at Uber, which has never been profitable in it's entire existence, vs the numerous Taxi companies, many of which are organized as co-ops, and who cannot afford to run at a loss for long periods of time. Or niche grocery stores, who often get driven under by companies like Whole Foods who can afford to let a location run at a loss for as long as it takes to kill off any local competitors.
@Stroggoii
@Stroggoii 2 года назад
Co-ops are incestuous to a point. Because they tend to work locally, with local labor and local markets they're incredibly slow to react to larger economic shifts, barely innovate and are ripe for corruption. My father joined a milk farming co-op with the second largest cow stable. They refused to let him buy new machines when he needed them, they refused to go into meat and cheese production like he wanted, they made him drive two hours in and out on his off days for superfluos meetings. Then the government came to prospect the land for a new airport and the other stable owners stopped working altogether thinking they were gonna strike it rich selling their land. In the end my father went from millionaire to homeless because he joined a co-op, and the one local rancher who didn't join ended up buying all stables for pennies when the government ultimately chose another location for the new airport. Most cooperatives are agrarian and government subsidized because they are not good business. The don't hire hierarchically, they don't make profit driven decisions which are ultimately subsistence driven decisions, and they can't operate at a loss while they find their footing because it's the community's livelihoods and not some loan shark's interests that are at stake if they fail.
