Yes and central planning is inherently unstable and inefficient. So you're back to my original points that he doesn't know what hes talking about.

Throughout this entire comment chain you have never once managed to explain how central planning is "inherently unstable." Rather than Marx, it's evident you don't know what you're talking about.

Again you dont understand the implications of his system because you dont even know what metrics to use to advocate for it. Personally any system that optimizes for gdp or manipulated approval ratings as a measure of a healthy and fluroishing society design has lost the thread and doesnt know how to live.

AES countries don't "optimize for GDP." The USSR and PRC both doubled life expectencies, over tripled literacy rates to 99%+, dramatically expanded access to healthcare and education (being free in the USSR), saw drastic reductions in poverty, hunger, and homelessness. GDP grew alongside drastic improvements in key quality of life metrics.

Additionally, you have not proven how approval rates have been "manipulated," your reasoning just being anti-China sentiment on your part because you don't trust the "sneaky Chinese." Please cite a source or drop the implied racism.

As i told you earlier you want to convince me tell what you want to accomplish with your government and then we can discuss the metrics youd use. But so far you've demonstrated either: you're absolutely clueless about how systems fail/get corrupted, what the metrics you're using actually measure, and how they translate into behavior of the people living under those systems.

You haven't offered any explanation for a single point.

Essentially you've demonstrated you want to live in an authoritarian dictatorship. Hard pass.

Not at all, I want to live in a democratic state with public ownership and central planning.
