  1. i wrote this about 2 years ago COMMUNISM IN 50 YEARS Well like it or hate it you WILL live in some form of communist state in the next 50 years. Capitalism is FUNDAMENTALLY flawed, I dont mean it has its problems. I mean the very basic concept is self cannibalising. Problem No1. Capitalism is a funnel. It funnels wealth from the bottom to the top - it also funnels power from the bottom to the top cos money = power. For capitalism to be stable you have to TAX the top heavily and move the money back down to the bottom JUST to keep the system functioning. Rich powerful people DO NOT like being taxed. And as capitalism INEVITABLY produces rich powerful people who control media and politicians they get their way. This hoovers all the money out of the working class, then you give them credit - they sell their future work, and then they are EMPTY. But for capitalism to continue it NEEDS MONEY - so the middle class are the next to go - and you can see this in the USA and the UK - it is eating the middle class. It also starts to eat the state, private prisons, private education etc etc... Ultimately there is NO MONEY left in the system - that has already happened the FED in America si literally printing money to keep the system working. So capitalism HAS TO COLLAPSE. It is 100% inevitable from the very start of the system. And people predicted this 150 and 200 years ago. Problem 2. Capitalism HAS to GROW to exist. it is NOT a static model. It has to grow by about 3% each year to continue. That is a DOUBLING of the world economy every 27 years. The earth is at 130% of capacity now. WE CAN NOT extract 260% per year of the earth capacity in another 27 years - its not possible to live on that planet. SO. A static zero growth economic model is required, a model that removes the profit motive is required [to long to explain why] is required and due to AI a UBI is required - the only economic model we have that allows the earth to survive and people to eat is a communism based model. It wont be Stalin's Russia, it will be some hybrid modernised version. But YOU WILL LIVE under a communist economic model if you live another 50 years.
