  2. Checkmate Chess Channel I agree that taxation is theft, as is stealing anything from the people who produce it. That includes bosses stealing the fruits of workers labour, something that you support. ‘Laissez fair’ capitalism isn’t a different form of capitalism, it’s a form of capitalism that we’ve already experienced and it has been terrible for this planet and is now naturally evolving into state capitalism. Capitalism requires tax to work anyway.

  3. Universal credit is a Tory policy being continued by brexiteers...

  4. 888Caz No, it is a tory policy. The DWP is tory controlled. Stop spreading lies, I don’t even like the E.U. but it has nothing to do with universal credit.

  6. Checkmate Chess Channel Oh, you’re talking about ‘anarcho’ capitalism not laissez faire capitalism. Then I can tell you that capitalism requires the state to function, corporatism isn’t some separate system, it’s required to enforce the interests of capital. Bosses steal in the form of profit that comes out of the products produced by the workers labour. You can’t just not accept a low paying job when no others offer anything better and your only other option is starvation. Just 100 companies produce over 70% of the worlds total carbon emissions, the world is literally going to be destroyed by capitalism simply because destroying it is more profitable than saving it. It’s funny because all the ‘anarcho’ capitalists that I speak to including you always just end up describing capitalism when talking about what they dislike.

  7. Checkmate Chess Channel Corporatism is simply the inevitable end to capitalism though. Laissez faire capitalism is a deregulated, free trade economy and does not mean the absence of government, it’s pretty much just neoliberalism. Anarcho capitalism on the other hand is impossible as capital requires the state. I don’t know what leap of logic you took to start believing that workers would be better with more capitalism but it’s simply untrue. There’s a reason why the least regulated markets are the ones with the sweat shops. Small businesses can’t exactly do well under anarcho capitalism if McDonald’s sends their private army to acquire them.

  8. Checkmate Chess Channel Laissez faire capitalism is the absence of state control of the markets whereas anarcho capitalism is the complete absence of the state.Capitalism requires the state because the state is what enforces class society, take away the state and class society breaks down. You even agree with me when you say the state requires violence but it requires that violence in order to preserve capitalism. I agree that the state isn’t my friend and I’m not for it but I also understand that if you take away the state the capitalists will replace it with their own corporate state. I don’t want to reform the state I want to see it completely replaced with a workers state however that state would not be permanent and would only serve to destroy capitalism and abolish class society. On the violence point I completely agree that violence is used by the state however it is used by ever ideology and system and would have to be used to achieve either of our ideal societies. It should be used to defend personal property however private property is criminal, places of work and public spaces should be collectively owned. I can honestly see you being interested in Marxism because it seems like you agree with a lot of it, you just need to learn that free markets aren’t your friend.

  9. Checkmate Chess Channel Ah, I see you’ve been manipulated by Ayn Rand’s lies. Collectivism is what turned the USSR from a semi medieval autocracy into a superpower. Production always increases under collectivism. Laissez faire capitalism still involves the state enforcing class society and neoliberalism is an example of it. You know what’s funny is that you talk about intelligent people being sniffed out but there’s a reason some of the greatest minds in history such as Einstein and Hawkings were Marxist. It’s capitalism that lets potential geniuses starve to death working as child labourers in sweat shops while socialism does the complete opposite and provides everyone with the education and resources they need to succeed, that’s why the USSR produced so many advancements and new technologies. You can’t compete in a market economy without already having capital so therefor the poor cannot compete. It’s capitalists who leech of the labour of the masses, not the other way around. Socialism is ‘mob’ rule and there’s nothing wrong with that. The state would destroy the other classes apart from the proletariat so class society would cease to exist and the state would no longer have a purpose, giving way to communism and a stateless society. I don’t expect an anarcho capitalist to like marxism at all but my point is it’s more like the society you want than you think.

  10. Checkmate Chess Channel I’m the one who’s brainwashed? You’re the one telling someone from a Russian background that you as a westerner know better than them about the USSR. Do you even realise how much our lives improved? We went from literal slaves to well off workers that did not have to worry about being thrown out onto the streets like we do today. Funny how you said I dislike intelligent people and then go on to attack the greatest minds of our time for sharing their knowledge and not profiting from it. Under socialism, intelligent people can thrive. Please tell me how it’s intelligent people who thrive under capitalism when one man may be a billionaire due to family wealth but have no intelligence yet another may be extremely intelligent yet will slave away in a sweatshop, never being able to use that intelligence and succeed. It’s the rich who rely on their family, the working class are the strong and we fight our own battles. Funny how you resort to attacking me when you realise I’ve made good points, you Americans are truly brainwashed by the likes of Ayn Rand. For all your complaining about government it’s funny how you believe all the propaganda your government has taught you.

  11. Checkmate Chess Channel What bullshit. Afraid to break it to you but America is not pro communism. Just admit that investing and playing the stock market is not actual work unlike the working class people working in the factory to barely survive. The stock market would just be more influential without government and with less regulations politicians can be bought more easily. Obviously some Russians didn’t like the USSR, however over 2 thirds prefer it to capitalism.
