Economics & Co

1.
Socialism

There´s an oil well, coal, gas.
It´s all free, coming out of the ground.
The country sells the commodity.
Money is taken from the revenue and distributed to leaders, workers for the state, and to "poor people"


2.
Capitalism

Manufacturing goods. Work.
It´s all the result of the worker´s efforts. And, in the first place, of the entrepreneurs and companies, because they give jobs to the workers.
Goods are sold.
Tax is paid: Deductions from the wages, VAT.
Tax is spent on leaders, workers for the state, and spent on (not always so) "poor people".


Do YOU really want to entertain, the leaders, workers for the state, and the (not always so) "poor people" with your hard-earned money?? I mean, by getting up early in the cold morning, enduring mobbing, failures at work etc.

Shouldn´t the leaders, workers for the state, and the (not always so) "poor people" not rather get up early in the cold morning, endure mobbing, failures at work etc THEMSELVES?????

The tax system has been hundreds of years in use, and it´s been serving the aristocratic society well! It´s become mainly obsolete; it should be replaced by a modern business system: market rules should apply, services should be rewarded, but state affairs not be entertained by regular fixed tax payments.

Education, disabled, basic health should be the exception of the rule. Ie paid for to guarantee well-educated citizens.
