You think conservative and liberal solutions are ineffective because they aren't blanket communism. I understand.
No. You don't. Communism isn't even one thing, first of all. There are many different kinds of communism.
But more to the point, it's not at all that there must be some specific solution that will solve all problems. It is rather that there are several features of our current economic system that cause many-- not all-- problems.
Consider infectious disease: even neoclassical economists will readily understand that the decision of whether or not to seek treatment for an infectious disease has third party implications-- in this case, benefits to society for seeking treatment-- that are not whatsoever reflected in the market price. Market failures of this kind are a feature of a great variety of problems. And this kind of failure is so pronounced in healthcare that many otherwise capitalist countries have entirely abandoned markets as a way of distributing healthcare.
Consider outsourcing: employees are not consulted on whether to outsource except when the threat of outsourcing is used as a bludgeon to try to lower wages. This would not be a problem without the employer-employee dichotomy in which employers want to pay employees as little as possible while making sure those employees produce as much as possible. That employer-employee dichotomy is also the root cause of many other issues, such as the tension between profit and workplace safety resulting in unnecessary risk of injury and death. Relatedly, the hierarchical nature of the firm (as well as the desperation caused by the threat of poverty) is the root cause of many workplace harassment issues because we've constructed situations in which people are reliant on the whim of a superior for their continued stable existence.
To say that capitalism causes many problems is not the same thing as saying that some variety of socialism or communism will solve all problems.
Serious people: we need stricter regulations regarding the rape of slaves, family separation, housing conditions for slaves, abuse by overseers, working conditions for slaves, and so on
Hopeless ideologues: the system of slavery is the problem
Yeah, but you're comparing the worst Republicans to all communists.
