I worked for a couple that came to the US after the wall came down. Back in Bulgaria she was a MD and he was a mechanic in a tractor factory.The whole system ran on barter. She would get staples for a house call, fish, wine, eggs ect. The family ate quite well on her efforts.
The tractor factory officially produced 2 tractors the last year in business, the rest were stolen buy the workers.
I asked him , how do you trade a tractor for toilet paper? He looked at me like I was stupid and said , you get a lot of toiler paper :)

I watched his new 5 min video that compares Socialism and Capitalism. The comments were packed with people standing up for socialism and denigrating capitalism. Watch it and if you have any interest, make a cogent argument for capitalism. This newest video is really being trolled. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fdfru...

Yeah, but it doesn’t sound as cool.

It’s more like eventually the pace of money/resource extraction “needed” is slowed. People have less, and it becomes harder to take. The system collapses well before they totally run out.

You have to love that quote!

Excellent comparison and informative.

There is not a socialist/communist/maoist government that has outperformed a market based capitalist economy ever.

M. Thatcher "The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.”

I'd hate to. YouTube, Facebook, et al are censoring some of these videos, but not this one.

There are a wealth of them, and they are all well done.

Explained simply and coherently.

Want to guess what percentage of the population saw it?

Thanks, Thor. Excellent! +1
