Socialism is an ideal but it doesn’t become problematic until you expand on what stirs the drink. If its authoritarian socialism then yea it’s gonna be awful in a different way than how authoritarian capitalism is awful

There needs to be a level of government intervention and safeguards in a market.

I'd argue the lack of government rails in the past 55 years has made things vastly worse for the consumer. For instance, market consolidation, prior to the 70s where you had significantly more competition among market segments.

Mergers and acquisitions have largely gone unchecked leaving certain companies owning huge portions of market-share with few competitors and shareholder return being the primary area of concern, not customer satisfaction which largely becomes irrelevant in such a consolidated market.

Then you have things like consume protection a necessary spend due to how companies can treat customers these days, including banks. Airlines, phone companies, financial institutions, etc. can all be predatory and extremely difficult to get what you are entitled to.


A good functioning society, needs government innervation into the free market or else, anyone with a brain can see how it can and eventually will go full dystopian. That's the bare minimum, delving into public safety nets can become more contentious, of what and how much and what are xyz's requirements.

income disparity is higher than its been in America's history, its such a risk to have even one kid financially unless you have A) a lot of money and B) a wide social safety net/family to help


my generation is struggling enough to pick up the pieces from the baby boomers, we can barely afford houses let alone kids


blame it on the boomers
