Resolves to "Yes" if I think that Communism is better than Capitalism for Manifold Market.

Resolves to "No" if I think that Capitalism is better than Communism for Manifold Market.

Resolves to a percentage if it seems like a hard choice between the two.

Resolves to "N/A" if this becomes highly controversial.

I could close the market earlier or later depending on whether I feel that enough discussion has happened.

I will judge based on comments on this market. Philosophy, economics, personal feelings, and appeal to authority (Manifold staff) are all valid ways to convince me.


My definiton of Capitalism in Manifold:
-Maintain most of the current structure.
-Allow and encourage buying in Mana with USD.
-Market Manipulation to maximize profit is kosher. Gambling on markets is kosher. Farming unique trader bonus is kosher. Any exploit to the current system is kosher.
-Minimal mod involvment on markets and user behavior.

My definiton of Communism in Manifold:
-Impose wealth tax on all whales. Impose Universal basic income, giving daily mana allowance to all verified users.
-Markets created by a user can be taken control over if enough participants show the desire to take it over.
-Manifold staff have full control over who can create market, how to resolve a market, who can invest in a market.
-(Possibly have a dictator as well).
