@YaHuWaHservant You will get sugar the same way you get any other food you need; straight from the local distribution center. Food can be grown locally in vertical farms ran by automated machines. Today in the capitalist system this is not done. Instead, we have food grown in 3rd world countries for low wages and shipped halfway across the world in a very inefficient manner taking advantage of other people. But that's the name of the game in capitalism; taking advantage of people

@yllierutube Ok so tell me how will I get Sugar in your resourced based economy without working for it and how many people will have the sugar to give me?

@YaHuWaHservant No, in a resource-based economy people will do what they're intrinsically motivated to, not be forced to become subservient wage slaves like what capitalism forces people to be. Monopolies and cartels are not only possible, they are inevitable in a capitalist system. Mega-stores like Walmart, K-mart, Target, etc are perfect examples of cartels who diminish decent wages while shutting down local mom and pop stores who cant compete with them.

@yllierutube Even in a resource based economy Capitalism is what you will do. Secondly Monopolies and Cartels cannot be created through Capitalism it is entirely impossible. Thirdly, your scenario only works if every single person in the world has access to unlimited resources to fill their desire; which would still require capitalism to produce. Perhaps you should learn exactly what Capitalism, or Voluntarism if that name ma you happier, is before you pretend to offer a better way.
-
@YaHuWaHservant No, that's incorrect. In a resource-based economy resources are made abundant to everyone which eliminates the need and mechanization for direct and indirect trade or barter. It would be entirely pointless to trade someone something they already have access to. Capitalism is no longer relevant and is very problematic. Just the fact that a monopoly is the highest echelon one can reach within capitalism just shows how corrupt it is; if not a monopoly, then cartels.

@yllierutube Funny thing is a resourced based economy would still be a Capitalist economy as your resources are the capital you wish to trade for what you want/need. Capitalism teaches you to provide things to people at good quality/competitive price to be able to buy the things you want. If I start a business where I sell high quality food at a competitive price feeding billions and I did so in order to buy things I want/need who is the victim?

"World peace, no hunger, free healthcare? This isnt what Christmas is about!"
Good portrayal of the social values capitalism creates. It basically teaches "Fuck everyone else & abide the social darwinist system. Oh yeah, don't forget to buy bigger guns and more locks for your doors, because you will be in constant danger when everyone else around you is being deprived of their basic needs" Capitalism, socialism and communism are all outdated social systems. I advocate a resource-based economy.

Repression and propaganda in the US has always been as strong as in any other authoritharian regime. The difference is that americans have never realised.
As if believing in economic freedom means believing people shouldn't have enough food and healthcare. You can't just steal from one person, and give free stuff to another without consequences.

Then quit being a selfish arsehole and give 99% of your income to Africa.
