Why have the Jewish people, who seem to have benefited greatly from capitalism, contributed disproportionately to socialist literature? Although the question remains unanswered, Dr. Milton Friedman, a secular Jew himself, offers some fascinating observations.
Dr. Friedman gave a lecture entitled, "Capitalism and the Jews" at the University of Chicago in 1978. Listen here:

The Nazi economy was a planned economy. They weren't capitalists at all. People tend to think of Nazi Germany and of the Soviet Union as of two opposites. They tend to think that the former was an extreme rightist state and that the latter was an extreme leftist state. But in reality, both states were very similar in their politics: they both were complete interventionists on all policies, whether economic, social or foreign.

Lo que Dr Fridman sostiene es el gran intervencionismo estatal que se da en muchos países incluidos los EEUU en el área de manufactura y banca por ejemplo. Por eso los judíos prosperaron mucho más en otras áreas de la economía, las más libres (por lo menos al principio). En el caso de Alemania nazi es un modo de capitalismo dirigista con fuerte injerencia del Estado pero sin llegar a modificar el carácter de propiedad de los medios de producción que seguían siendo privados, lo contrario de la URSS en que fue abolida la propiedad privada. La Alemania nazi estaba más cerca en algunos aspectos de la China actual que de la URSS

Except Jews are as highly targeted and murdered as Christians under socialist and communist systems. Sure, they may profit under the economic application of the theories, but socialism and communism are fundamentally not economic systems but socio-national systems, which means armed force is the primary means of achieving and maintaining such systems. As a result, Jews and other conservative groups tend to die in huge numbers under such revolutionary systems. Are the socialist elements identifiable within Judaism? Sure, those same elements exist within Christianity, albeit much less pronounced. However, both are equally targeted by revolutionary movements because of the fundamentally conservative nature of Judeo-Christian values. Ergo, regardless if it's left or right revolution, conservative belief systems including Jew and Christian are targeting and often killed as an integral part of the revolutionary movement coming to, and maintaining, power.

Jews have contributed disproportionately to socialist ideology because, socialism and Marxism is purely created by jews, as a response to Jewish worker life in Victorian Europe. Karl Marx, a Victorian Austrian Jew, created the economic system based on his experiences as a European Jew during a time when Jews had low economic influence and strength. During his time, Jews were "oppressed" factory workers. That is where the German Jewish labor Bund, communism, and Jewish anarchism came from.

The second (historical) set is huge. If I may give one episode: there was a time in Germany when Jews voted for capitalist democratic parties and joined them too. With the result that Christians left these parties and formed their own Christian Democrats ('Christian' here means 'no Jews allowed'), which soon totally overwhelmed simply democrats. (cont.)

What were the Jews up to before they were "brutally expelled?" Lets consult Dio Cassius to find out: "...the Jews in the region of Cyrene...were destroying both the Romans and the Greeks. In Egypt, also, they performed many similar deeds, and in Cyprus under the leadership of Artemio. There, likewise, 240,000 perished. For this reason no Jew may set foot in that land, but even if one of them is driven upon the island by force of the wind, he is put to death." Why murder all the Gentiles?

@TheTrueLiberal - The premise behind the Glass-Steagall Act was that riskier investment banks with fewer regulations for more wealthy individuals wouldn't be in the same boat as commercial banks for more middle/lower class individuals. In 1999 the Glass-Steagall Act was repealed and investment and commercial banks could once again merge. A decade later we nearly had another great depression.

Exactly how? In the USSR, public displays of Judaic relgion was banned (same with Christianity), so was Zionism (Jewish nationalism). Many Jews were executed, imprisoned (my great-grandfather for example) and sent to Gulags for "anti-communist" actions and sentiments. It is also known that Stalin basically planned some sort of action against the entire Russian Jewish population, but died before he could do so. The Jews suffered in the USSR just like everyone else, why do you think so many of them escaped to Israel in the 90s? I know you'll bring up the fact that that many Bolsheviks were Jews, which is true, but also true is the fact that by the 40s, most of the early-Bolshevik Jews were executed during Stalin's purges. From the 50s to the 90s, Jews were no longer disproportionally reprsented within the Soviet leadership, with Kaganovich being the only exepction. So yeah, while many Jews were responsable for creating communism, you can't say that the Jewish population "benefited" from it. I mean, Trotsky was a Jew, nd he basically turned a blind eye to a pogrom that Tsarist supporters launched upon Moacow's Jews during the civil war. So much for Jewish tribalism, ha?

Unlike when the same people (government) who loot you have also the police and the power to regulate. In that case they can smash you and if you complain, put you in jail or hit you, take your wealth and do anything. Something normal business just cannot do in the presence of competition, because if you are not silly, and I do not think you are, you will just give your back to a business that loots you.

He po-po-ed me and said, “When I grew up in Chicago, my parents had a charge account at the local grocery store. My mother would order food over the phone, and my father went and paid the bill at the end of the month. No difference.” FALSE. 159 million Americans get multiple credit cards, charge them up to the limit, and pay only the minimum each month. Credit card debt is over 2 trillion $.

The 'why' is not as complicated as it seems. Corporate capitalists, CEO's, CFO's etc. are responsive to their stakeholders, the first of which is the investor. That means the quarterlies must be the priority. How many times have we seen a company fire 1000 or 5,000 or more employees and seen its stock immediately go up? Jews have generally been raised with a strong civic conscience. The commons has always been as important as the individual. This used to mean Jews being concerned with the welfare of the Jewish community, but as Jews moved from the ghetto on to the world stage, it has expanded to include humanity as a whole. Also identification with the oppressed is characteristic of the Jewish ethos. This is undeniable. This is why it's unusual for Jews to embrace laissez faire capitalism, the market economy in it's pure unmediated state, the ethos of which is, 'to the victor belongs the spoils.'

@@happy_thinking Friedman claimed the FED in the 30s should have increased the money supply, to give assistance to failing banks. A depression would still have happened, he claimed, but a milder one, without a run on the banks. There are several vids on RU-vid wherein he clearly states these theories. But for a more in-depth account, read his A Monetary History of the United States'. Whether Friedman would've supported a bail-out is debatable, but it's a fact that he criticized the FED's response to the crisis in regards to being the lender of last resort.

@@happy_thinking He also criticized the FED's response to the crisis, in terms of lending to struggling banks.In other words he favored a cut in the interest rate, or the equivalent thereof. And he certainly concurred with Keynes' assertion that a speculative bubble played a key role in the panic. The FED didn't take all the blame, Animal Spirits played their part too. Friedman was not a free-market fundamentalist. He even stood by his early support of the New Deal, but only in regards to a war economy. Friedman was more Neo Keynesian than Neo Classical. Which is why Mises accused him of being a socialist. Friedman also claimed that Hayek was more a philosopher than an economist.

And you are wrong in saying that the socialists,social democrats and liberals (who were the moderates, mensheviks etc) supported the bolsheviks. They didn't. There was a multiparty system after the overthrow of the Tsar, with different factions, but controlled by bourgois liberals and mensheviks. The bolsheviks opposed that gov't and called for the People to rise and take power (i.e. "all power to the Soviets". A soviet is a popular council, a grass-roots group of workers, in case u don't know)

Another reason why Union membership has declined in the private sector - is because of policies like minimum wage, unfair dismissal, welfare. If these were eradicated - its my guess militant unionism in the private sector would return - out of sheer necessity. Which just proves how short-sighted free marketeers are. In that they can never see when such policies are actually good for business. E.g. could the globalization of the last 30 years have took place without social safety nets in place?

But as Israel expanded its borders, and tried a new set of large infrastructure projects, it was a massive waste of money and resources...

Yeah, right. Freemarket reforms don't automatically lead to freedom - that's BS. Otherwise, China and Russia would now be free societies. Chile was a free society before Pinochet took over. It was a democracy with civil liberties - a free press, free speech, freedom of assembly. If Friedman wanted to experiment with freedom - he should have told Pinochet to stand down immediately and re-install democracy and the constitution. That's how you 'experiment' with freedom - not through economics.

What did Milton Friedman do in Chile? He urged them to adopt free market methods, reduce taxes & regulation, and give citizens freedom to choose for themselves. Friedman never endorsed Pinochet and frequently spoke against many of Pinochet's actions. Also consider that the Communists were engaged in a great deal of violence and most (but not all) of what Pinochet did was a reaction to this violence. Had Pinochet followed all of Friedman's advice, things would have been better for everyone.
