      First of all, I do not see how our lives are based on a dictatorship by wealthier people.

      How do you then want to democratize the economy? Do you want companies to have a structure where everyone votes?

      You know, there is a significant difference between a state and a company. When you dislike a company, you can very easily just move to another one, when you feel abused by your boss, you can change the job anytime. In most countries, we have no laws that prohibit you from changing your job. On the other hand, to get a citizenship in my country, you need to live here realistically for 8 years. What I am trying to say here is that even if a company has a terrible leadership, it’s not the end of the world. It will probably end bankrupt but people can still find a job somewhere else. On the other hand, incompetent leading of a state can impact life more seriously and most importantly an individual cannot change the situation easily.

      Last but not least you are saying that shareholders and private owners are parasites is not true at all. They give money to the company. Without that, you can have skilled employees but will they work for the sake of enjoying life in a democratic company? I highly doubt.

              There is a difference between not understanding the alternatives and providing reasons why they are overall worse.

                  What exactly am I not getting about socialist economy?

                  The ones who disagree with socialism are usually told they just don’t understand it & that it has not been tried.

                  Reality is, it’s been tried and it always failed.
