As I said originally, anyone who questions the prevailing ideology of "social democracy" (if that's what we're calling it) is quickly attacked and shut down these days.
The difference between us is that what I propose has never been properly implemented and tested, while social democracy has, extensively. How you could make claims about the relative productivity of these two systems with the vacuum of test data is beyond me.
Anyway, I've made my claim, and I stand by it. I'm confident that eventually people will see the merits of it, even if it does take some thinking. In the short term it really doesn't matter if people disagree with me. We'll see how things stand in 50 years or so.
OK, well that answers the question in my other comment.
So, given that this theory has never been tested, why are you so confident in it? So confident, in fact, that you imagine everyone else in this thread to be completely ignorant of basic economics, or driven by ideological groupthink?
