>>Communism/socialism can't work because a collection of politicians can't possibly allocate capital better than a market can.<< that's the theory. the reality is that nobody has ever tried to allocate the capital for the benefit of society - so the theory has never even been tested (i'm not arguing it isn't true, just arguing it hasn't ever been tested). they allocate it for the benefit of themselves - and in that way the dictatorial plutocracies have worked fabulous... for the dictatorial plutocrats.
