Liberals runamok or in paradise?

Government:

  1. The government levies heavy taxes.
  2. The government prints money whenever necessary to avoid deficit spending or borrowing.
  3. The government subsidizes things like factory construction and maintenance.
  4. The government determines what a farm will produce.
  5. The government determines the prices at which a farmer may sell what he produces (the prices are automatically set above what the market would otherwise dictate so farmers have a certain amount of guaranteed income).
  6. The government determines what goods and services businesses can produce, how much they will produce and the price at which the produced goods and services will be sold.
  7. The government, at the direction of business owners, determines the wages and salaries of all employees.
  8. The government provides health insurance, unemployment insurance, disability insurance and a retirement pension to employees.
  9. The government operates an organization that provides low-cost recreational and cultural activities- things like luxury cruise vacations for less than 2 weeks’ pay.
  10. The government conscripts labor for public works projects in order to relieve massive, chronic or long-term unemployment.

Farmers:

  1. Family farms may not be mortgaged or seized by creditors.
  2. Family farms may not be sold.
  3. Family farms must be inherited by the farmer’s oldest son or the nearest male relative and the heir is responsible for providing a living for the deceased farmer’s surviving spouse and minor children.

Business owners:

  1. All corporations worth less than $500,000 must be sold to a larger corporation or closed.
  2. No new corporation worth less than $2.8 million may be established.
  3. No more than 6% of a corporation’s profits may be distributed as dividends. The remaining 94% must be either re-invested in the corporation or be used to purchase government bonds (which the government is not obligated to ever pay back).
  4. Employers may demand greater output from employees without increasing wages or benefits.
  5. Large business must either form cartels or join already existing cartels pertaining to whatever industry the business is associated with.
  6. No business may fire an employee or lay off an employee without the government’s permission.

Labor:

  1. Labor unions are illegal.
  2. Employees may not strike.
  3. No employee may leave his employer without the employer’s permission.
  4. An employee must pay anywhere from 15 to 35 per cent of his pay in taxes and charitable donations mandated by the government.

I’m not sure if all those things are factually correct. Is this something that you’d like to see implemented as an ideal? Or are you arguing against it? We need a little context please.
