>People will always want something more than anyone else wants to provide that thing

You're making assumptions about human behavior and ignoring that fact that needs and wants change based on environmental conditions, or even fabricated by culture industry. Do you know about Edward Bernays?

>mutually desired thing such as currency, that can be provided to incentivize the producer to the same level as the consumer.
Read Cockshott, there's a market socialist solution to incentiviztion using Marx's idea of labor vouchers.

>kek? it's not profitable to have customers with money? it's not profitable to have a lot of enterprises working towards making your ass comfy?
It's not profitable if the customers have nothing to offer, they are in poverty right?

>I too never have heard of charities. They simply do not exist.
Is it pure coincidence the only people who can afford to donate to charities and have any significant impact are people who own a lot of things?

>yet somehow transport isn't cheap. still hunger is fading out, and obesity, especially in 3rd world countries, becomes an increasingly more serious problem. but hey, it's not like famines have a stern tradition in socialism
Can you explain how the famines were caused by socialist mechanism? It's not like there's nuance or anything you know? Natural droughts, Kulaks culling livestock/hoarding grains, and sparrows eating crops? Anyways, I think capitalist states have caused more famines, pic related.

>maybe, take a look at india. there you get a good insight on those mechanisms. and before you say anything about evil capitalist india, remember their constitution:
Just because they claim to be something doesn't mean they are that in practice. Can you explain how Venezuela's and India' economies are socialists? Do you have any statics for social ownership or any evidence on whether or not their industries are producing for use instead of exchange?
