To attribute ANY scientific advances to “capitalism” or “communism” is completely absurd. NEITHER of those have anything to do with the advancement of science, which has progressed in every kind of society.

Achieving a surplus of food does not require capitalism, and never did.

2. Capitalism is more productive. If it wasn't why would Chinese communists allow it in their country? Why take the risk?

1. Capitalism is not inherently more productive, market-socialist orgs (co-ops) usually produce more per manhour 2. We produce too much as is, a focus on overproduction is unwarranted 3. It’s easier to control citizens & trade with capitalist countries when you’re capitalist

1. Just not true. Socialist and Communist systems are always less productive. 2. I thought people were starving, needed food/resources? 3. Competition makes efficient! As an individual, company or nation. Apart from resources communist/socialist have nothing worth buying.

1. Based on what? 2. Yes, they’re starving because they’re not ALLOWED to have the food that exists. We produce far, FAR more food than we could all possibly eat. 3. I’m still pretty sure that only works short-term, but market socialism is a thing

Entrepreneurs usually aren’t the ones being productive. They HIRE the productive ones.

Entrepreneurs aren't productive but hire the ones who are? So if I design a world beating widget and you make it, you are productive and I am not?

No, we’re both productive in that case. But if I continue to make the same design, I’d eventually be responsible for a growing majority of the total productive labor.
