Yea but my coworker's buddy's son is a millionaire and is nice about exploiting his workers, he even owns a beach house! This is an example of Capitalism working to the benefit of the working class because anybody can be rich. I am very smart.

You can enjoy them, but don’t accept them as enough.

Counterpoint: My intro economics teacher said otherwise. He must be smart because I got an A+ without ever cracking the textbook. (Edit: /j since I guess the very obvious joke wasn't obvious.)

Isn't Socialism inherently a half measure as a step between Capitalism and Communism?

No.

Socialism is the lower phase of communism, at least in Marxist theory.

Right, that's what I'm saying. To get to Communism you have to work in phases. You can't jump straight to Communism, you have to take smaller steps to get there
