    Yeah because that is the endstate of socialism. That is what the path of communism aims to lead to. It’s not the starting point, it’s after a transition past the capitalist mode of production into a new economic paradigm. It is after the wealthy elite are overthrown in what would likely be a war between the global proletariat and the rich. History of society is a progressive journey between different economic systems. We used to be hunter-gatherers, then developed agriculture, consolidated factories, and now we can move to a new step.

      aims to

      Aims to. As in, has never once reached. So, you’re suggesting that in a state that has never happened, but theoretically could happen, then it’s OK to have a for-profit business.

      What about in the real world?

        And anyway, that is just a weird way to analyze a theoretical system. If something hasn’t been put in place fully how would we have examples? The cavemen didn’t have a lot of examples of farms and factories.

        There are numerous examples of egalitarian or socialist communities throughout history, I’m not a professor, I’m not going to lecture you on every single point there is, unless I knew you were actually asking in good faith. You are obviously just trying to find any meaningless symantic hole possible. Maybe it would surprise you that a lot of us are just trying to make the world at least somewhat better! No system will solve every single issue humanity has right away.
