And yet when you ask for examples they go quiet and say how real communism hasn't been tried.

The commies really have made this place terrible is not something I thought I would find myself repeating over and over again in 23.

When comparing between similar levels of economic development, socialism has always provided better quality of life than capitalism. Even in less developed countries, it meets the basic needs of the average person moreso than any capitalist country of similar metrics, without exploitation or imperialism to get there.

Well I'll give you a hint.

Is this supposed to imply that the users of Lemmygrad believe capitalism is the best system? Lol

Mixed economy. No true capitalist or communist or socialist system has ever existed yet. So whatever is/was the best economy is a mixed economy and whatever is the worst... well, feudalism takes the cake here

So the best system is the most unstable system?

What other systems have existed so far?
