No offense to you, but that's exactly the reason why most commies exist. They don't understand economics well enough to understand why their ideas don't make sense.
Agree 100%.
There's some great videos on YouTube about how millions of people died in China. In a nutshell, political agitators were able to get the peasants to rebel against the middle class. There were a lot of show trials and a lot of middle class people were hung or tortured to death.
If you've ever met a Bernie Bros who works for minimum wage, you can see how that could turn out. A lot of Bernie Bros are broke and hate their boss with a burning passion.
After China killed a ton of the middle class, the idea was that the peasants would "share the wealth." Basically the idea of Chinese Communism was that the land owners and the business owners were "stealing" from their employees. If you've heard Bernie Bros talk about how low wages are "theft", it's the exact same idea.
And then something unexpected happened:
It turned out that the farms were wildly inefficient and unproductive when you take the owners and hang them from a rope.
Productivity dropped like a rock, and millions of people died.
It's almost as if managers are rewarded for increasing and leveraging the productivity of their employees, and when you literally murder the managers, the enterprise crumbles.
