I'm pretty convinced that a majority of the people on here attempt to form some kind of human connection with each other. It just happens that on /lit/ this is achieved via discussion on books, philosophy, and dank memes.

So it is less showing off, and more trying to enjoy each other's company.

>I believe in a free market
Okay fair enough, you believe in massive corporations controlling everything. Because it is pretty undeniable that under a free market wealth and capital is concentrated over a prolonged period of time, without government or political intervention.

>and a free individual.
I'm assuming your referring to the common man, not just yourself here. And under that assumption it is clear that a system where wealth is ultra-concentrated some people are going to be de facto slaves to other people. While this gives more "freedom" to people with power, it takes "freedom" from individuals lacking resources.

So pick one m8.

And with that I will tip this guy's hat >>6453972 , and bid farewell.

I'm not a fascist oligarch.
In the same way that I'd imagine you're not as Stalinist.

However, a controlled economy with a heavy emphasis on wealth redistribution stagnates and the natural economic processes of growth; book and bust: are artificially synthesised and falsely apprehended. So that any leftist, controlled economy will undoubtedly be outcompeted by the free market.

Wealth gets concentrated at the top... By implementing effective social services and limited welfare you combat the worse effects of this. Wealth trickles down through commerce and devolution of trade and effective governments incentivising market growth to prevent total monopolies.

If you don't have a right to capital and a right to property without massive taxation, then you economy Errol choke and be outcompeted by a more streamlined and aggressive economy because of modern globalisation.

It doesn't matter how equal we all are if we're all equally poor.
