It’s just like socialism; great concept, but impossible to perfectly implement. That said, I’d still prefer a system where I maintain independence and freedom than any alternative since humans are inherently are own largest problems.
I’d prefer a system similar to what we have in germany right now as it is a mix of socialism and capitalism in a way that reduces the exploitation that free market capitalism brings. Complete freedom in market almost always leads to exploitation which is terrible
How exactly does Germany reduce exploitation from capitalism? Is it labor laws? I would like to remind you that having social programs and laws that benefit the working class is not socialism.
Maybe saying socialist is an overstatement i just think that our current system is a step in the right direction as there are laws in place to reduce exploitation and improve the situation for workers. It is still very flawed and i think it could be better but there are many places where it is bad, the US for example
Wait hold on, is the thought that being anti libertarian is the reason why Germany is successful in your view? What did Germany do to make it successful in anti capitalism like exploitation? im still waiting for someone to tell me that.
No, it’s the thought that regulations are a necessity to have a decently functioning society that doesn’t prey on the weak, and a big government means there are more people checking up on each other which lowers the chance at corruption.
Germany isn’t anti-capitalism. But they are a heck of a lot more socialist than a libertarian ever could imagine to function.
What, specifically, are you meaning when you use the term “capitalism”? There is a difference, for example, between an anarcho-capitalist, or fundamentally free market, and a competitive free market. One is alright with the existance of monopolistic/anti-competitive behaviour, and the other is not.

To a Libertarian, Germany would be too regulated and have too big of a government.
That is why it works so well in Germany.

Would you mind defining “impossible to perfectly implement”? I don’t want to draw conclusions based on interperetations of that statement.
