You're nor wrong, but good luck trying it.
Thank you. My hypothesis is that other systems are similar to capitalist imperialism, in that they require a certain percentage of people to believe they're workable before they work. It's not sufficient, but it is necessary.
Good that most people believe anything you tell them then, right ๐?
