  • Is history marching inevitably towards centrally planned socialism, as Karl Marx proclaimed? Or is the best path to continued progress and expanding prosperity liberal, democratic capitalism as recommended by Ludwig von Mises? Learn more at misesvsmarx.aier.org

      Meh who cares. Whatever works. If a youtube rap battle is what gets people intrested in the systems around them then I don't see what's so bad about that.
      The only stupid thing is when people only listen to the rap battles and stop at that but I feel like anyone who wants people to follow a system they believe in eventually realizes that you can't expect them to always read a buch of dry boring theory. You have to get good at convincing people and rewording all that theory and philosophy into words they can actually understand without spending years in college. This is already done with science so I don't see what's so wrong with doing the same with politics as long as it's done well.
      The problem is that most of the time it isn't done well.

I thought it was strange and creative, so I went to check it out.This video has many of my favorite part like the melodies, sentences, and many parts of speech. And there are a lot of parts that I don't understand as well too, because I'm not someone who follows or studies much about economics. But it's still good for me. But after this time I watched, It's just not only about conflict of capitalism and socialism. This sentence is actually the turly question to ask for humanity development ''​Where are we going? What's the right course? What will motivate us? Incentives or force?''

Mises uses facts, evidence, history, and bases his ideas on logic. Marx, however, bases his ideas on feelings, utopia and disproved theories. That pretty accurately represents the two ideologies IRL if you ask me. Those who see fact will say Mises won, and those who see fiction will say Marx won, just like real life.
      No, our solution is not to forget Marx. We should disprove him instead. We've tried forgetting Marx, but he will always be re-discovered by the selfish and gullible, which is why we need to prop him up instead, so that we can tear him down. We need to make sure that everyone knows who Marx was, and how his ideology fails not because it was never 'real' socialism, but because his ideas are fundamentally flawed. It would be better for us to put him in the spotlight, if anything.

Naziosocialist Germany and (!) fascism were (in terms of economy, not racial and other policies) built on the idea of protectionst policy and self-sufficiency through mixture of private and public ownership over the means of production. Which did allowed private profits (generation of wealth) for (mostly) selected and sometimes lucky individuals in the society, however, puting national interest first. In the instance where public (nations) interest would be in the need of assistance from or directly clash with interests of private individuals. The state would prevail and if needed through the use of force towards the individuals who had accumulated wealth. The similar scenario can be seen in various examples when subjects of state (citizens) are controled by a higher entity (Emperors, Kings, Tzars, Dictators). Examples can be seen from Medival age and/or Feudal system, when Emperors, Kings and Tzars needed finances for conquest or defence, they would generate wealth through force if required, to Kulaks in Communist Soviet Union to many other examples throughout history. Therefore, Facism is not differentiated from any other dictatorial, authoritarian, totalitarian system when it comes to generating wealth, it is differentiated in social and political issues, but that's not because its driven by capitalism.

      A_Noob first of all, blaming a rival economic system for somehow being responsible for political corruption is so unfair, as i could easily make the point that capitalism has killed and enslaved millions over its existence. But that wouldn't make sense because there is a difference between an economic ideology and government fueled corruption and supression scandals, second of all, nations such as the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Poland ETC, are subject to criticism for their supposedly systematic state sponsored killing of its citizens, when this is simply not the case,
      no nation in the eastern block killed people in cold blood, thats a broad untrue statement and belief created by nations that couldn't fathom the fact that communist nations are far better than their own western nonproductive capitalist nations. All men and women were imprisoned rightfully. third of all, you attack these nations for their lack of free speech, but free speech to an extent is a divider for a nation, constantly bringing up arguments and criticism towards a government that another portion of people supported would create internal division among the people. Therefore the criticism made towards the governments were innulled in these nations, as their governments were well aware of how detrimental nonconstructive crticism of their governments was to the society as a whole. Socialism/Communism is good.

      @Krónika you can have competition and cooperation they are not as opposite as you my think, competition just means, in terms of capitalist, several companies competing to sell same or similar products and services. Cooperation just means working together to achieve a goal, I think that's the actual definition but works for capitalism, and companies are working together to strengthen the economy through the competition. It's like In the States Walmart vs Target. Yes they are in competition with each other because their both are stores that you can go in and buy stuff from their competition means they have to improve or provide better or cheaper products which in the long run helps strengthening the economy.
      I think a tl:Dr example is a sports team just each person is trying to become the best, but the end goal is for your team to win and your internal competition can aid it achieve the cooperation to obtain the end goal.

I don't think I worded it properly the first time but this is not mental gymnastics. They have opposite meanings, yes but that doesn't mean that in actions their opposite. There is a load of examples that could be used to show that cooperation and competition aren't that opposite in action. I honestly think your the one that did the mental gymnastics if after my clarification just now, you don't understand or disagree with them being opposites in meanings alone.

      Meh. Marx failed at empiricism (cherry picking facts, for instance), perverted the dialectic to a game of formulating statements "so as to be right either way", his philosophies are phantasies built upon botched conceptions of cause and effect and a selective, amateurish knowledge of history (not much of a historian), and he was never able to close the loopholes in his theory of labor value nor was he ever able to prove his law of the falling rate of profit, which is demonstrably untrue. The only thing he was good at was persuasion, but since the rest of what he had on offer was overwhelming but defective balderdash, he could only lead people into worlds of tyranny. Again and again. Highly effective persuader, an utter total abominable failure at everything else. Unable to provide for his own family, unable to manage his own finances, he was going to tell the world how it should be run.

Try to work your whole life on a couple of thousands of pages of theory that will change the world for the next 150 years and various academic disciplines - that was never the way how to make money. That was always just way how to explore and see something new. I guess dogmatic marxism today really is dead. I can't say about economics or political science, but in aesthetics and film studies (my domain) various continuation of marxism is still alive.

      ​@@eterista3868 It is true that Marx's thought was not solely economic, at least in the specialized sense that contemporary academia thinks of. On the other hand, his integration of philosophy, epistemology, methodology and social critique is just a feature of the 19th century mindset. It's not like classical liberalism lacked depth: if you go even father, you will see that, before Adam Smith, Locke was writing in teological, metaphyisical and philosophical terms when writing about property, production and even money. It is with the marginal revolution that the drift towards 'economicism' begins, more so in the works of Jevons and especially Walras. Mises, being Menger's intellectual grandson, was preocupied with both pure philosophy and catalactics (what we nowadays call economics) - something the video doesn't aknowledge.
      That being said, the fact of the matter is that Marx subsumes conscience to the material, and by that he ultimately means the social relations of production (a.k.a the economy). Marx's framework, while rather sophisticated, is at its core economicist. Something that, in any case, is very dear to the modern mind. Lockean liberalism is not that different as it interperts men's god given will in relation to its economic capabilities.
      What I really want to say is that, in the same way you need Feuerbach and Hegel to talk about Marx, you need Locke and Kant to understand Mises as a thinker (and Hume, if you include Hayek). This video is rather symplistic in either way.

    Lyrics of March of History: Marx v. Mises
    -Marx-
    Workers of the world, assemble
    It’s time for the ruling classes to tremble
    I’m the people’s hero -- MVP
    M, A, R, X, yeah you know me
    Let’s go back to when men were free
    We hunted and gathered communally
    But get ready -- here comes the twist
    A villain appears called a Capitalist
    He puts the proletariat (that’s us) in chains
    Exploits our labor and pockets the gains
    Through slick ads and tricks lads and ladies in kind
    Selling fake needs he poisons our hearts and minds
    He rots our soul through alienation
    Pursuing limitless accumulation
    He works us into an early grave
    Through debt steals back the money we save
    Greed is the gospel
    Profit: God
    The rich get richer through graft and fraud
    The poor get poorer but you don’t care
    Doesn’t that sound laissez unfair?
    200 years I’ve been singing this song
    Now my chorus is 99 percent strong
    The revolution’s here -- it’s time to repent
    Your moment is over, your capital’s spent!
    Chorus:
    -Socialist-
    This is history’s lesson
    -Capitalist-
    You think he’s right I’m gussin’?
    -Socialist-
    All we want is progression
    Without bourgeois oppression
    -Capitalist-
    So we look for the truth
    -Socialist-
    As we tighten our boots
    -Both-
    Who’s right, who’s wrong
    Left, right, left, now the march is on
    -Mises-
    Guten Tag, Marx, nice to meet ya
    My name’s Ludwig: call me ‘Teacher’
    The master of markets, the Austrian boss
    You don’t like profits? Well let’s talk loss
    The problem with your plan is nobody wins
    Except Stalin, Pol Pot, Ho Chi Minh
    Lenin, Mugabe -- remember Berlin?
    They built a wall to keep their people in
    Your theories have a rotten foundation
    Built on control, not cooperation
    Centralized power completely corrupts
    Real people suffer, violence erupts
    Your system depends on the very same people
    You decry as greedy, bourgeois and evil
    If we’re not fit to run our own lives
    Why would you expect our votes to be wise?
    If you really want to help people rise up
    Unleash the free market: lift their lives up
    It was Capitalism, not a Socialist plan
    Saved billions in India, China, Japan
    Everyone has a unique purpose and plan
    No one solution can serve the whole land
    Each individual has their own voice
    The heart of my theory is freedom of choice!
    Chorus:
    -Capitalist-
    This is history’s lesson (Socialist: Yeah right)
    Let’s pursue our expression
    Living free from aggression
    So we look for the truth
    With the freedom to choose
    -Both-
    Who’s right, who’s wrong
    Left, right, left, now the march is on
    -Marx-
    Free Marketeers love to play this game
    Mao kills millions, Marx gets blamed
    It’s deceptive, dishonest, plain unfair
    Did I drive the tanks at Tiananmen Square?
    Man I’m a humanist
    You can check my receipts
    But you gotta break eggs if you wanna eat
    Don’t like violence? Admit defeat
    Then I’ll call this revolution complete
    Till then, let’s get a few things straight
    I’m not shaping the future, I’m embracing our fate
    My utopian forebears weren’t that specific
    But this analysis is highly scientific
    Every social system has governing laws
    Capitalism? Doomed because
    The system generated its own fatal flaws
    By uniting workers in a common cause
    Thanks to you, we have all the wealth we need
    To seize control and eradicate greed
    The people are rejecting your bourgeois lies
    Real Marxism has never been tried
    Equality is the core of my creed
    From this one’s ability to that one’s need
    Our healthcare, finance, and industry
    Let’s collectivize and set ourselves free
    -Mises-
    Your standard refrain ‘oh that’s not the real thing’
    The most common verse all your followers sing
    The closer we get to your ideal system
    The further we get down the Road to Serfdom
    The empirical record can’t be denied
    Your ideas don’t work but they just won’t die
    Attention: this is not breaking news
    Jevons and Menger lit that fuse
    Now here comes the bomb via Von Bohm-Bawerk
    He blew up your system, exposed the core quirk
    The heart of your theory is exploitation
    Of surplus value, that’s a bogus equation
    You can’t explain value by measuring the cost of labor
    That theory of value has lost favor
    Value is subjective by every measure
    One man’s trash is another man’s treasure
    There’s no exploitation if two people arrange
    Voluntary exchange
    Man, that’s not deranged
    That bourgeois transaction you diss with a scoff
    Creates benefit for both so we’re both better off
    Here’s the real problem, the crucial equation
    Without private markets, there’s no calculation
    To coordinate courses, allocate resources, incentivize choices
    Because it lacks prices
    What crops should I grow?
    Should this factory go?
    How should I pick a J.O.(B)?
    How would your planners ever know?
    Your theory is a bundle of confusion
    Socialism got crushed by marginal revolution
    Chorus:
    This is history’s lesson
    All we want is progression
    -Capitalist-
    Let’s pursue our expression
    Living free from aggression
    -Socialist-
    So we look for the truth
    As we tighten our boots
    -Both-
    Who’s right, who’s wrong
    Left, right, left, now the march is on
    -Marx-
    We’re all better off, are you kidding me Mises?
    My immiseration thesis tears you to pieces
    Your economy grows, but not our wages
    You call that progress? I think it’s outrageous
    -Mises-
    In 1820 everyone was poor
    Until Capitalism kicked down the door
    Real wage growth, not stagnation
    Saved 80% of the world from starvation
    -Marx-
    You kicked down the door but you locked us out
    That’s what your ‘free market’ is all about
    Here’s what you do: on your next shopping spree
    Pick up this book by my boy Tommy P.
    -Mises-
    The pie can get bigger, it’s not zero sum
    Free markets have lifted the lowest incomes
    If you really want to help out the poorest nations
    Encourage peace, trade, and immigration
    -Marx-
    The Earth is boiling and your solution
    Is more production, more pollution?
    More cheap trinkets in bigger malls
    More fossil fuels, more aerosols? (Mises: Wait, what?)
    For a problem this big we need total control
    A green New Deal to save the North Pole
    We can’t gamble the future on anarchy
    Greed’s not a plan, it’s insanity!
    -Mises-
    Your story’s bombastic, your rhetoric’s strong
    There’s only one problem: your theory’s wrong!
    The wealthiest countries do the most to conserve
    Haven’t you heard of the Kuznets curve?
    Only wealthy societies can afford to go green
    If you want a better world, see the unseen
    Even carbon will bend to creative destruction
    With entrepreneurship in the means of production
    Chorus:
    -Socialist-
    This is history’s lesson
    -Capitalist-
    The market’s a blessin’
    -Socialist-
    All we want is progression
    -Capitalist-
    Living free from aggression
    -Socialist-
    So we look for the truth
    -Capitalist-
    With the freedom to choose
    -Both-
    Who’s right, who’s wrong
    Left, right, left, now the march is on
    -Marx-
    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again
    The long march of history will come to an end
    Hagel was close, but too ‘a priori’
    Watch me break down my dialectical story
    Proletariat, bourgeoisie
    Them versus us, you versus me
    Slave, master, lord and serf
    New class battles, same old turf
    We have what we need to throw the chains off us
    Organize the economy like the post office
    The state takes over but that’s not the whole plan
    Watch it wither away and leave Socialist man
    Our goal is true fairness, outcomes that are equal
    Capitalism? Over. Here’s a Socialist sequel
    Revolution’s coming, prepare for the fight
    Workers of the world, unite!
    -Mises-
    Nothing is determined, you’re so fatalistic
    A grand theory of history? Be realistic!
    Your failed predictions? A distraction.
    Here’s some questions that guide human action:
    Where are we going? What’s the right course?
    What will motivate us, incentives or force?
    Here’s what you miss from commanding heights
    Each person’s gifts and individual rights
    Across every continent, culture and creed
    People have flourished only when freed
    To find passion, profit, charity and love
    Through the shake of a hand, not a boot from above
    Socialism’s record isn’t hard to parse
    First it was tragedy, now it’s a farce
    Let’s unite people from every nation
    In peace, exchange, and cooperation!

      It worked in the Soviet Union- they broke up the Russian empire and the various nationalities had self-determination. There was a balance between national independence and internationalism, fraternity between workers regardless of nationality- you can’t have all of one or the other.
      It DIDN’T work in Yugoslavia, true, because Tito took a completely opposite line. He (and his party) banned ALL expressions of nationalism, which ended up working poorly for them. This is one of the reasons Tito and Stalin split, because Tito opposed expression of any and all national differences. Stalin was from Georgia, a small nation who before the revolution was repressed by Russia and had their culture stamped out by Russian culture, he was big on the national question.
      Now, it makes sense why Tito took the stance he did, the different Balkan states had a history of attacking each other and they had just come out of World War II, where some Croatians were even more brutal than the Nazis. This is what it looks like when you have STRONG nationalism with NO internationalism. So while we can be sympathetic to Tito looking at his historical conditions, at the end of the day he was wrong

    Communism floats into the arena of human ideologies like a child's radiant balloon - promising, colorfully whimsical, bearing the glistening illusion of buoyancy and innocence. It seduces young minds with the lure of equity, painting utopian dreams stitched with threads of shared wealth and brotherhood. It sings the siren's song from the realm of the ideal, its sweet melodies echoing within the cavernous universe of academia, igniting a constellation of hopeful light in the eyes of human hearts.
    Yet beneath the veil of these starburst promises, lies the spectral ghost of disillusionment. This specter becomes the jagged reef on which the ship of communism flounders, revealing its white-knuckle grip around the throat of liberty. Communism is a quilt stitched by the blind seamstress of idealism, manufacturing a pattern where every square, every stitch, every thread are the same, thereby suffocating the uniqueness of the individual thread buried within the fabric of society.
    The potent elixir of this ideology withers under the sun of practice, its essence evaporating like dew in the dawn. It aims to convert the golden wheat fields of human motivation into a barren land where creativity and ambition are extinct. In its ill-conceived attempts to erase the lines of disparity, it tends to reduce the vibrant rainforest of human potential into an endless desert of mediocrity.
    Communism, in theory, is the lighthouse built on the shores of a just society, casting its luminary visions across the tumultuous sea of human suffering and inequality. Yet this lighthouse, in practice, crumbles into ruins under the battering waves of reality, spotlighting the haunting rubbles of hopelessness, the shadows of starvation, and frigid winds of oppression.
    In short, communism is like striving to capture a mirage - its shimmering pool of paradise forever receding beyond the grasp of human reach. It is a naive child chasing a paper boat down the rivulet of dreams, unaware of the tumultuous waterfall of reality lurking unseen around the bend. It is a chimera, a creature of the imagination - beguiling, captivating, yet ultimately, illusory and destructive.
