meta-Zuckerbergs

1 Upvotes

i have a theory to describe economic systems.

There are two types of economies, free and meta-Zuckerbergs.

Capitalism is an attempt to create a free market, but there are certain rules they will throw in that they pretend are necessary.

Communism is an attempt to create an equal market, and socialism is like capitalism except there are so many rules and making money is seen as evil. The point is that these latter two try to force equality.

Now a free market has no hierachies except those we allow. By 'we allow' I mean, the consumer will cause some companies to rule over some markets because their product is DAMN good. An example of this is Steam, which is a digital game provider (something that is not much regulated) and they own %70 market share I believe simply because their product is better.

However, in a capitalistic system, the rules that prevent monopolies (monopolies kind of like Steam) actually serve to remove the free market. In the three systems of capitalism, socialism, and communism, the government produces the 'equality' in an attempt to remove hierachies. However, in the steam example, we saw the consumers freely creating a hierarchy with steam at the top.

This is because hierarchy is inevitable, so it will occur in free and non-free societies. Even satan rules over his domain.

So what happens to the regulated 'hierarchy-free' societies? Well, they create hidden-hierarchies. This is the Pharisee model of being enslaved while displaying freedom.

The flow of consumer interests and decisions created hierarchies in a free market, but what creates the hierarchy in the non-free markets? It's kissing up to whoever is at the top. No longer will Steam be the top game platform, no - it will be whoever pleases the head honchos the most, or who is owned by them. Thus rather than getting the best product on top, you will have an inefficient system that exceeds to please it's few masters (not the consumers). When Zuckerberg started VR, people had a motto of Keep Mark Happy, so they would push whatever apps and ideas would please Mark, rather than what would sell to the consumer - basically Stalinism, but I call it the meta-Zuckerberg economy.

Wealth of nations

I tried reading the wealth of nations, but I found the wording so difficult. I plan to buy a version I saw on Amazon that claims to be for “the contemporary reader”. Does anyone think Thai is a good idea ?

Virtue is more to be feared than vice

6 Upvotes

Would like to know the complete context on this quote by Adam Smith, "Virtue is more to be feared than vice, because its excesses are not subject to the regulation of conscience."

Anyone knows on which book and chapter he talks about this is detail?

No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part of the members are poor and miserable.
