CNBC: So we should expect the US government to be taking more equity stakes in businesses around the country? KEVIN HASSETT: It's possible, yeah. That's absolutely right.

Sounds like felon trump is rolling out the capitalist version of communism where they seize the means of production but keep it all for themselves. Who knew all this time in order to get 10 billion worth of a company you just have to threaten them a little.

Ask for government to be run by a business and you get state owned venture capitalism. And this isn't "communism" because it is unlikely the profits, such as they are, will be spread among the citizens according to need.
aug 25, 2025, 10:38 pm • 3 0 • view
If you think profits are shared with the people in communist countries equitably, think again and look at the poverty level of their citizens against the government and oligarchs. The communism idea you speak of has never materialized into these countries, it is an utopia sadly.
aug 26, 2025, 12:32 am • 0 0 • view
You are correct; communist nations don't exist and they never have. It isn't a concept that scales to the size of a nation state. Calling the Soviet Union and China "communist" undersells the history of both those places and perpetrates an undeserved negative meaning for the word.
aug 26, 2025, 12:56 am • 0 0 • view
I do not think that the Soviet Union or Mao's China shared their state owned profits as a shareholder units but I am unaware of the way they spend their social capital. Ineffectively, I would imagine. Nonetheless, calling either modern Russia or China "communist" is inaccurate.
