Penn&Carter Chortle: "It's in the Tank, Man"

Jimmy Carter regrets not thinking of this back in 1980

Socialism is all about making sure the Peasants eat nothing but Shit Tacos

Versailles Alone should Sup on Tasty Fare If the aim was "let all have of good food" then the solution to this "unfairness" would be obvious. Have school districts send someone to Annika's kitchen and see how she makes the tasty fare and how she keeps it all in budget. Then, presto, return to their districts with this info and spread the cheer. But InterSoc ain't about improving quality, nor about fairness, it's about hammering down all those nails that are not already pinned down to the Party Line. The travel down the River Charly has an utterly predictable, utterly mechanical, end; into the cesspool. Behold, the Food fit for da Proletariat:

Talking sinister gibberish in order to evade the obvious conclusion

It has become apparent to anyone with a grip on economic reality that free markets simply cannot produce enough wealth to support the sort of universal entitlement programmes which the populations of democratic countries have been led to expect. The fantasy may be sustained for a while by the relentless production of phoney money to fund benefits and job-creation projects, until the economy is turned into a meaningless internal recycling mechanism in the style of the old Soviet Union.

Die Gemeinwirtschaft: Untersuchungen über den Sozialismus

Ludwig von Mises tries to understand Pinko Logick: Any advocate of socialistic measures is looked upon as the friend of the Good, the Noble, and the Moral, as a disinterested pioneer of necessary reforms, in short, as a man who unselfishly serves his own people and all humanity, and above all as a zealous and courageous seeker after truth. But let anyone measure Socialism by the standards of scientific reasoning, and he at once becomes a champion of the evil principle, a mercenary serving the egotistical interests of a class, a menace to the welfare of the community, an ignoramus outside the pale. For the most curious thing about this way of thinking is that it regards the question, whether Socialism or Capitalism will better serve the public welfare, as settled in advance—to the effect, naturally, that Socialism is considered as good and Capitalism as evil—whereas in fact of course only by a scientific inquiry could the matter be decided. The results of economic investigations are met, not with arguments, but with that “moral pathos,” .. on which Socialists and Etatists always fall back, because they can find no answer to the criticism to which science subjects their doctrines.
