"Is Socialism Inevitable? Is it Humanity's destiny?"
Not pure socialism, no; it has the same flaws as pure capitalism. But some kind of free market socialism, or democratic socialism, yes I think it is where we are headed, but it will be a couple of generations away still.

The whole monkey in that wrench is that Human nature is to take what they want. Damn their neighbors needs. And Especially if there's not enough to go around. Not everyone is that way. But more are than aren't. Especially if they haven't had it before. There are many civilizations still that aren't that way. But they are the ones that are still self sufficient. -

I got mine, the rest of you share... now fuck off. -
This is why I think free market socialism is the future, not pure socialism.salemcoog said:

There is still latitude for greater reward for hard work, you just wouldn't see the wealth gaps you see in the US... it would be much more like the wealth gaps you see in Sweden or Denmark. -

Yes some jobs will be created by new industries we haven't even thought of yet (why I mentioned needing education/skills in computer programming and STEM), but not enough to slow the flow of jobs leaving the system.HeretoBeatmyChest said:Schumpeter predicted that the success of capitalism would lead to socialism. That has more to do with your question then technology which makes societies wealthier not poorer. Technology is deflationary but it also creates its own replacement jobs and industries in its own right.
But people probably thought that during the Industrial Revolution also -
The sad part is, many of the church people who vote mostly on retarded social shit like Jesus, guns, and abortion are in favor of something resembling the Scandinavian mixed market system, or whatever you want to call it. The R's have manipulated them into voting against their economic interests.OZONE said:

No they haven't. People vote for their interest. Not everyone sees the democrat utopia the way you might. Some people don't want to be limited by what someone else thinks they can or should achieve.Fire_Marshall_Bill said:

Do the democrats manipulate the poor into voting for programs that keep them poor? -
Good boy. You seem to have people grouped into the stereotypes you've been taught.Fire_Marshall_Bill said:
