This is how I define “CAPITALISM” in 8 points. I am not going by the definition given by the academia, UPSC/SPSC coaching centers as they are fully penetrated by the anti-national, treacherous communists.
In this article I will compare “CAPITALIST” with the “COMMUNIST” economic system
- Capitalism means “open business” i.e. any person can establish a business and the procedure for establishing the business is exactly same for all.
- Capitalism means “no monopolies”, not even the Govt. monopoly.
- Capitalism means “no cartelization”. What I mean by “Cartel” is few existing players join hands and capture the business and prevent entry of new players.
- Capitalism means the business is controlled by market forces i.e. the customers shape the business not the other way.
- Capitalism means Govt just plays the role of a very “impartial” and “strict” REFEREE who punishes the unruly players at the quickest.
- Capitalism means democracy and change of leadership, depending on situation new leaders can lead.
- Capitalism means “OPENNESS” i.e. the Govt or even companies need to put as much information as possible in public domain.
- Capitalism means “RULE OF LAW” i.e. the law is above any one.
Looking at the above, I see that countries like US, EU, Japan, UK, Korea, and (India is on track) are better on the parameters I mentioned above in comparison to other countries.
Let me compare the “COMMUNIST” economic system with the above parameters.
- Communism means closed business i.e. people having close connections to the ruling elite can do business. For e.g. in China, no one can do business unless (s)he is close to the Chinese Communist party (CCP) or Army(PLA).
- Communism means “BUSINESS MONOPOLIES”. I.e. the Govt itself wants to create monopolies where Govt is the owner or by businessmen close to the ruling elite. We see many such monopolies in Russia, China and Korea. Even in Kerala, we find such monopolies though to a lesser extent. By having monopolies the ruling elite create a business class who will be dependent on them. For e.g. in India, Indira Gandhi nationalized the entire oil Industry. What happened? All petrol pumps are mostly owned by political parties (especially the Gandhi loyalists) who need the Gandhi Dynasty to be in power or else they will lose business. The farm protests is another example – it is sponsored by Mandi Dalals who need FCI to purchase Rice and Wheat from them.
- Communism means “Cartelization”. In China and Russia and N Korea we find that business cartels are very prevalent. The cartels are owned by people close to ruling dictators.
- Communism means the business is in a way controlled by the ruling party or ruling dictator. There market/customers don’t control the business but the business controls the customers due to monopolies and cartels. North Korea is a great example.
- Communism The Dictator/Communist party is the player, it is the referee, it is the judge, it is the lawyer and everything.
- Communism means “DICTATORSHIP”. When communism starts off the communists put the control in the hands of the party. But we have seen in Russia, Korea the dictators become larger than the party and they seize absolute control. China is on the same track, as they changed the constitution to make the current president stay in power for ever.
- Communism means closeness. I.e. no free media, no Govt information is in public domain, no incident detrimental to the Govt is reported. For e.g. COVID 19 outbreak from China or the nuclear accidents in Russia or North Korea. Even the Chinese Govt banned all reporting on the recent nuclear accident.
- Communism means Rule of 1 single party or Rule of the single dictator. We see this in China and Russia.
India in a way is midway of both, but with Gandhis weakening it is moving towards a “CAPITALIST” economic system. Indira Gandhi made an attempt to bring in a communist style system by imposing emergency but failed.
And when Modiji is making the changes, it is no doubt why the ecosystem created by Gandhis and Communists are up in arms. And this also explains why the academia, media are anti-US and anti-RSS.
In nutshell COMMUNISM = PLUTOCRACY i.e. a dishonest and murky form of society.
