That was George Orwell’s view, but it’s wrong. Historically, socialist states have been dramatically effective at raising up standards of living, and it’s because the working class is quite well aware of its own interests and how to run society. You don’t need everyone to specialize in everything, that’s why political education and education in general are so valued in socialist countries.
This is as much a utopia as capitalist “trickle down economy”. It cannot exist because proletariat, in the vast majority, is dumb as a sack of bricks.

Such as?
USSR, PRC, Cuba, Vietnam, etc.
You’re calling USSR or PRC “socialist”? WTF is this? A joke? I thought we’re having a serious conversation here.
