I've had a bit of an idea that could help put the 'capitalism-vs-communism' meme to rest.
what if we set up an experiment of two "countries", occupying two identical plots of uninhabited land (same size, same resources) and with a population of ~ 3000 volunteers each?
the two countries would be given full sovereignty over their territory and could apply law as they saw fit.
now here's the point of this:
one country would be run as a free market capitalist economy, and the other as a communist state.
we could run this experiment for some 10-20 years and see the results at the end.
the whole thing could even be televised as a reality TV show for funding, sort of like survivor.

what do you think?

well it would depend entirely on how developed this land was to begin with

if they were starting literally from scratch the socialists would certainly win since they can organize as a collective to construct basic infrastructure which isn't possible for the capitalists until enough capital is accumulated to pay for the investment.

oh and would these societies be dictatorships or democracies, kind of an important point

>>2752436
you know, everyone is equal, but some are more equal than others

>>2752445
>dictatorships or democracies
i guess whichever would arise naturally or be agreed upon by the volunteers beforehand

I don't believe socialism could work but I could see it working in your example simply because the socialists that would sign up to join socialist town would all believe in their cause.

Unless both populations are both of various ideologies I can see both working perfectly as intended.
>>
>>2752492
this is the point, yeah
as there would be no excuse of "but not everyone was on board" or "it wasn't real communism/capitalism", we could finally see the actual result of those types of societies
>>
>>2752492
This.

If 3000 people volunteered to live in a feudal society they would all be happy too. Volunteers would ruin your experiment.
>>
>>2752504
Except not everyone will ever be on board. Thats like saying "I'll be the richest man alive if everyone agreed my hair was currency "

Sure in theory you're correct and if you could find 3000 volunteers to build a society with you then you would be the richest among them. In the end you can't force people to accept your lush silky hair to be worth money in the same why that you can't force everyone to agree to follow your system of govt.

m8 i'm not saying "if only x then communism would work"
i'm saying "let's put commies to the test and look at the results"

i'm not suggesting communism is a viable form of government at all

Why isn't this in /pol/ and why isn't this board moderated?

Ancapism would become the neo feudal dystopia it already promises and the Ancoms would turn into micro states no different from Ancapland.

Also it has to be a bunch of normal people embedded with a group of actual Ancoms/Ancaps otherwise they would put aside everything just to prove to the world their system works.

Old Left social democracy is the final redpill.

>>2752418
Are we making this a Soviet-style communist (fascist) community? Or a Marx-style communist community?

When will this meme die
