    Communism will fix it, right? Right?

      Hopefully something will fix it. Maybe it’ll be communism. It’s just a little ridiculous to believe that humans are hardwired to be capitalists. Especially since we’ve had two major economic systems prior to capitalism.

        I’d be open to a bottom-up communist-like path of change. I’ve given it some thought but haven’t come up with anything viable that doesn’t easily succumb to corruption.

          What do you mean “bottom-up Communist-like path to change?” What’s wrong with a democratic worker state?

                That interesting. How does one fund a campaign? How far vertical does a communist state go. How much power do those positions have? Seems like we just end up where we are now.

                  Within Capitalism, Socialism, or Communism?

                  How far vertical does a communist state go.

                  As far as it needs to for proper administration as democratically decided.

                  In what manner?

                    Do you have a vision of what you’d like to see? Is there paths that can feasibly be done today to help steer the boat in a more communistic way? I’m just saying if we try the top down approach and kill off the dissidents again we’ll just fail.
