re: Any takers for a discussion about “Marxian economics”?

Shocking that you don't understand the basic economic principles that you are reading.

OP doesn't understand 98% of what she reads ... but she pronounced the words right in her head, so it makes her qualified to start these ignorant threads ...

Speculation because the customer determines value?

Just wait till you learn what happens in a Marxist economy during an emergency or unforeseen sudden scarcity.

Centrally planned economies lack fluidity, flexibility, and agility.

does this explain the substitution of consumer debt for wage growth?

We had it in 1873 and the early 1900's and the unfettered capitalism lead to a whole host of problems both financially and societal. So, some regulation by the referee that is the state was in order. You should read up on the Panic of 1873 it lead to a 6 year depression.

Let’s get a couple of things straight before entering the discussion: capitalism has produced more widespread wealth than any previous economic system to date; communism and its offspring socialism have never produced sustained economic growth anywhere near capitalism. China implemented Maoism which was an urban focused communism led by urban elites while the peasants starved and was a colossal failure much worse than Stalinism. Stalin and Lenin implemented a peasant centered communism which led to rationing in urban areas and was a colossal failure so much so that the Soviets warned Mao not implement such a rigid system. He didn’t listen. The Soviets knew by the early 70’s that the system was on the verge of collapse and eased restrictions but the collapse was inevitable

You are wasting your time with 4 cubbies. She is THAT far gone, and unfortunately she carries an IQ of around 50 or 60, so there really isn't any hope that she will ever come to her senses. She isn't alone. Just look at these women and gay men protesting. They are disgusting misfits and losers, and they can't make it on their own, so they want it all burned down and start over with everyone being equal. LOL. Like that would change who people are.

Don’t forget, papa Mao is responsible for over 40 million deaths, mostly due to his 4 pest campaign and the resulting famine and his massive use of forced labor camps and “midnight disappearances”

The ONLY thing that saved the CCP was a near total abandonment of communism in practice and the widespread adoption and reliance on international capitalistic markets.

you are giving her way too much credit. She is literally borderline retarded, and might not even be borderline, but full. She clearly doesn't have a lot to work with upstairs, and is looking for something that will change her miserable life.

sign back up with Reddit to have these kinds of threads with your kind ...

well that is unnecessary.

She obtained specious information, and she is seeking to discuss. Running people off for shite like that is how you create echo chambers.
