Socialism (edgy teenager)

Capitalism with many socialist elements

Government-regulated capitalism

Completely self-regulated market

The only reason I don't agree with a completely self-regulated market is because certain industries like infrastructure and defense can't function competitively. You can have plenty of shoe factories to compete with each other because there's plenty of space, but with roads it's like what the fuc­k. Space is just too limited and competition isn't possible. And with defense, I mean it just makes no sense how that would operate without a government. Also, lol @ the edgy kids who still think socialism is functional and realistic. Just kill yourselves.

    Government regulated capitalism and socialism is pretty much the same thing. I assume the socialism you're referring to is communism. Saying socialism and meaning communism is like saying anarchism and meaning liberalism. And for the record a self regulated market is terrible for the people. It's basically the ISP situation in the US right now. Time Warner is making 97% profit on their internet! I'm okay with companies making a profit but if a company can make a 97% profit with no competition then something needs to change. And having two of the largest ISPs merge is a -blam!-ing insane idea and I hope they stop them from merging because then it'll be even more of a monopoly than it already is.
