"It was not State capitalism: the that source literally makes the exact same point i was making earlier. The nazi economy was a combination of both socialist and capitalist principles. Government regulation with a defined class system, privatization with wealth redistribution. The Nazis were neither wholly socialist or capitalist they simply went with whatever gained them popular support which meant catering to both the capitalist business owners and the socialist working class. as for the regulation of resources in a Marxist economy under pure Marxism there would be no privately owned property with every member of the community having equal rights to whatever resources are available at the time with any restrictions being put in place by the collective government. its a Utopian system that assumes both unlimited resources and a complete lack of greed and corruption among any members of the community. That's why no form of socialism that's actually been put in place as a form of government is "true" socialism because its not something that can practically be implemented. |
" The nazi economy was a combination of both socialist and capitalist principles."
capitalism is defined as private ownership and control of the means of production, this was not possible under nazi germany
"By dominating this organizational structure through
which orders could be issued to every businessman, and by insisting
upon strict obedience from all, the government obtained complete
control over the economy""
if you have to follow orders which dictate what must happen with your business then you aren't in control of that business
"as for the regulation of resources in a Marxist economy under pure Marxism there would be no privately owned property with every member of the community having equal rights to whatever resources are available at the time with any restrictions being put in place by the collective government."
the collective government? aren't you aware that marxism is about abolishing government?
so tell me how would the resources be regulated then?
"its a Utopian system that assumes both unlimited resources and a complete lack of greed and corruption among any members of the community."
so basically its bullshit and concessions would have to be made to make it work practically which is what i've said from the beginning
"That's why no form of socialism that's actually been put in place as a form of government is "true" socialism because its not something that can practically be implemented. "
yes... which is what i've said
