Capitalism is dead too... what needs to emerge is a combined libertarian socialism w/ a free market. i.e. worker/consumer co-ops w/ unions just baked in, high quality worker pay, benefits, etc... and a social contract that those who do a good job get upward mobility, and can rise up in life. I'm strictly speaking against socialism in the statist variety. I'd support M4A if it passed, and the reason I take the libertarian road is ... I don't see govt really doing much for us ever...In fact I'd rather see something like 60% of taxes go towards local, 30% towards state, and 10% towards federal, w/ the fed ONLY being responsible for national security, and interstate commerce. Each state would maintain their own military (EU style), and the governors would have to agree to go to war...35/50 maybe... Federal rules/regulations like FDA, USDA, etc.. might be more regional...think of splitting the U.S. into 5 major regions... the idea being that people should have more control over their destiny and govt locally than relying on a body of career politicians who are out of touch in D.C. Along w/ all these things ranked-choice voting or something similar should just be the norm. Edit : Per the m4a ... I think a syndicate of unions and co-ops could build their own shared insurance/mutual aid network better than the govt, and w/out needing the feds to be involved at all. It'd just take a partnership between workers, co-ops, unions, and consumers to support co-ops over non-co-ops so there's money for these things.
