State capitalism is an economic system in which the state undertakes business and commercial economic activity and where the means of production are nationalized as state-owned enterprises (including the processes of capital accumulation, centralized management and wage labor). The definition can also include the state dominance of corporatized government agencies (agencies organized using business-management practices) or of public companies (such as publicly listed corporations) in which the state has controlling shares.[1] The term has been used as a pejorative by Marxists, liberals and neoliberals. However, it has also served as a programmatic label for developmentalist and neomercantilist projects in reaction to imperialism.[2]
A state-capitalist country is one where the government controls the economy and essentially acts as a single huge corporation, extracting surplus value from the workforce in order to invest it in further production.[3] This designation applies regardless of the political aims of the state, even if the state is nominally socialist.[4] Some scholars argue that the economy of the Soviet Union and of the Eastern Bloc countries modeled after it, including Maoist China, were state capitalist systems, and Eastern and Western commentators alike assert that the current economies of China and Singapore also constitute a mixture of state-capitalism with private capitalism.[5][6][7][8][9]

TACO!

Every government does this and it's immoral. Economy and state need to be separated.
You're calling Trump a chicken for not bombing Iran's energy plants? So following through on Bridge Day would be an act of bravery? Don't worry, when we hit the PRC there won't be a ceasefire.
Every government does this and it's immoral. Economy and state need to be separated.
Wrong. Where done well the entire economy and nation benefit.
For example both consumers and productive enterprise in China benefit hugely from the fact that state directed strategic investment has delivered electricity at less than half the cost any western industrialised nation can.
When this strategy is expanded across all core infrastructure and services to include all key inputs for productive enterprise you create the most competitive manufacturing economy in the world- China.
Trump is now, belatedly, clumsily and desperately mimicking Chinas state capitalism with his investments in key strategic supply chains like microchips and rare earths refining.
But its too little too late and the petrodollar Jewish usury financed empire is dying because too many idiots believed the simplistic, self serving, immoral, aimless, greed is good neoliberal nonsense spread around by sly corporate lobbyists.
The mixed economy requires intelligence, nuance, courage, unity of purpose and discretion to understand and implement- but where it is as it was historically in the west, and as it is now in China, it is a potent engine of economic growth and power projection.
TACO = BIG LOSER.
USA HAVE NO INTERCEPTORS LEFT.
DANG!
USA CANNOT MAKE MORE BECAUSE CHINA STOPPED SUPPLY THE REFINED RARE EARTHS NEEDED.
DANG!
The mixed economy enabling the dynamic vigour of free enterprise and state capitalism working in tandem wins!
Wrong.
Not wrong. You can tell because the US is winning WWIII. The PRC is flailing. What is XACO even doing? A team building meeting with a party that lost three times in a row? While your oil supply is cut off? And two of your other proxies are pretty much dead without a fight?
The Art of War: Sun Tzu’s Philosophy of Winning Without Fighting
The Timeless Wisdom of Sun Tzu’s Strategic Thought
Sun Tzu’s The Art of War stands as one of history’s most influential military treatises, yet its true genius lies not in teaching how to fight, but how to avoid fighting altogether.
'This ancient Chinese text, composed around the 5th century BCE, transcends its military origins to offer profound insights into conflict resolution, strategic thinking, and human psychology that remain startlingly relevant today.
Sun Tzu’s approach to conflict involves meticulous preparation and positioning rather than reactive combat. He describes the ideal victory as one achieved through superior strategy before armies ever meet on the battlefield.
This concept of “winning first then fighting” contrasts sharply with conventional military thinking that emphasizes battlefield tactics.'
USA has no Interceptors left- can't make more because China withholds refined rare earths required.
China invested for decades to gain global dominance over rare earths supply chains.
Now China calmly stands back and watches USA humiliate itself.
"It is better to have good press coverage than to win the hearts of the people." - Sun Tzu, apparently
You have no credible retort so you make things up.
The only way I can definitely prove capitalism works is by the number of interceptors. The purpose of the war is to obtain the credibility we weren't allowed to win through reasoned debate. Bridge Day is the retort.
Your fake definitions of capitalism and socialism are irrelevant. They have the wrong flag. War is inevitable.
