I watched this earlier today, it was kinda interesting.
I always chuckle whenever I see someone from a socialist country give their opinion on socialism - it's the best sales pitch against socialism in favor of capitalism possible.

The answer of course is not socialism, but Georgism: taxing non-productive rent-seeking.
And not taking labor or commerce at all.

Heh, Heh! The re-distributors always seem to get a lot more than the rest. The essence of the LibbyFuck Con! Royals buying off idiots with crumbs, as the crumbs get scarcer for everyone because of corruption and disincentive.
