    Gotta love how Communism is the only one with an "On paper" clarification

    On paper, I should be a capitalist tycoon, what with my millions of tomatoes

    Just noticed that there isn’t even anything in the overlap between communism and capitalism, it was just a venn diagram for no real reason lol

    Adam Smith said you can't fucking trust businessmen, as they always will try to get a monopoly. So even going from the views on Capitalism via Adam Smith, this is dumb.

    0/3

    Also no "In Reality: You will die because you are poor" on Capitalism.

    Whoever made that presentation is a shithead.

      They're going with "communism on paper" but can't even read the "capitalism on paper" to get it straight.

    You should raise your and ask something like "didn't Adam Smith adhere to the Labor Theory of Value? can you talk a little bit about that, please? I'm not sure I understand how that fits into this chart."

    Capitalism: On paper: just a bunch of people trading with each other all the time.

    In reality: holy shit. holy fuck.
