From the Soviet Union's gulags and famines to Venezuela's current collapse the pattern is consistent across different cultures time periods and implementations.

"In 1950s Yugoslavia Tito's grand experiment began: workers would own their factories compete in markets but still be "socialist." By the 1980s worker-managed firms were hiring each other's relatives voting themselves raises and borrowing recklessly as productivity plummeted- because losses were socialized. The punchline When everyone owns something no one really does. Modern co-ops and "stakeholder capitalism" face the same iron law: diffused ownership creates diffused responsibility. Yugoslavia's workers had all the power on paper but market forces don't care about your organizational chart."

The American supermarket: 40000+ products global supply chains and market prices coordinating billions of decisions seamlessly. Mises called it a century ago. Central planning is economic blindness.

"Rothbard understood what most economists refuse to acknowledge: governments are fundamentally incompatible with sound money. Every fiat currency in history has ended in debasement and collapse yet we're told this time is different. Bitcoin represents the first genuine opportunity in centuries to remove monetary policy from the hands of bureaucrats and politicians who have proven incapable of resisting the temptation to print their way out of every crisis. The separation of money and state isn't just an economic necessityit's a prerequisite for human freedom."
