    But feudalism has been tried.

    In Scotland is was only abolished in 2004.

      I’m saying trying to turn the clock backwards is futile, Capitalism has already reached the dying stages of its development. There’s no way to stsrt fresh.

        That just nicely brings this conversation back to my point that pure capitalism has never been attempted.

          Then what’s your point? If we can’t attempt it and it can’t exist to begin with, what’s your point?

            I’ve said we haven’t attempted pure capitalism, I’ve never claimed that is can’t exist or we can’t attempt it.

              I have claimed that, and explained why. You never pushed back on that.

                You compared it to an archaic system that has been tried as proof that it couldn’t be tried.

                  Yes, we can’t “undevelop” Capitalism to a point of no regulation just like we can’t go back to feudalism. Modes of Production are historical stages of development alongside the progression of technology, they aren’t “ideas” people adopt because they sound nice.

                    That’s just a thinly veiled use of the Wookie defence in trying to explain your position.
