People say that because they are not aware of what Marxism is. Marxism isnt "lets try something different based on ideas of justice" Marxism is "Society evolves through general stages: primitive, slave, feudal and…
The only way to curb something like that is more democratization. Fraud is a common problem in any system anywhere. A reputation score on top would help, only if it can be kept democratically controlled. There is no…
It's the tax-payer funded business model, the NGO trap. Subsidies, grants, tax-breaks, credit, deductions, exemptions, etc. A whole class of profiteers live in this sector. Even though academia funding isn't strictly…
Almost as if capitalism makes everything into a market, and the profits make it self sustaining. How many will see the connections between this and our capitalist mode of production? Probably few since modern lit/news…
Everybody hates capitalism, but no one understands that they do. What you promote as a solution is simply a pebble on the path of the people who want to capitalize. There are 3 realistic scenarios for your proposed…
Right, nothing can, but it is harder to corrupt when the state isn't a handful of people with shields of bureaucracy where access to power can only be attained by the richest individuals in that society. Communism isn't…

Yeah, dude thanks for the good faith. A lot of people are allergic to this rhetoric and will just assume I have a deep irrational bias, but I was actually a staunch free market supporter before. Once I decided to be…
They have the incentive to never chose this. If we force it upon them by begging politicians, corporations still have the incentive to find a way to remove it or circumvent it. Youre playing the cat and mouse game…
