Wait for its citizens to prosper and then penalize the ones that succeed. They idea that they give the proceeds to the less fortunate is a bit of a hoot. Would that this were so. They create a rich civil service amongst those they wish to entitle. They force the vast masses into a sort of penal servitude to enrich the state. The average worker's salary in a pure socialist state is very low. It increases in proportion to the closeness to power in the government. Many socialist countries point with pride to their education system, and suggest that their other social welfare projects are more just and far reaching than imperialist countries. But we see that their courts only provide a pretense of fairness, and that the poor are still poor. If we look at the G7 countries, who do not impugn the ability of business to prosper, we see a far more universal level of education and more importantly a greater level of achievement of their graduate studies. It seems that were extrinsic motivation is greatest, intrinsic motivation increases by measure.
