Here in Norway most of farms are part of several different cooperative entreprises. They still have private property so i guess it's a mix. It actually works well and they choose if they wanna be part of this or not. Not communism. There are several different rights in cooperative entreprises to keep them democratic. These are regulated by law.
Could the channel do a similar video on intellectual property rights and their effect on innovation/economic growth? How do things like IP theft/patent trolls/corporation IP chokehold/rent extraction, factor into a national economy?
You are overestimating the damage done by collectivation in the Great Leap Forward. It had all the problems you described, but the real problems were environmental damage and bad policies. Bad policies like forcing farmers to work in industry and dropping their sparrow population by 99.6667%. If it was just collectivization, they probably would be at subsistence level farming, poor and miserable but less deaths.
The communism, socialism, capitalism debate leads me to this result- communism rarely works except in small monasteries, anarchism doesn't work except in primitive hunting groups, socialism works sometimes but not if the entire system is socialist and capitalism does work but cannot maintain a total free market because of crisis, corruption and war. I end with the view that the best system so far is what we see doing the best today- the corporatist Scandinavian model. The political ideologies of nationalism, liberalism, socialism, anarchism and conservatism have some bit of truth, but all have failed (world wars showed the flaw of nationalism) and we now live in societies which are a mix of all (yes, even anarchism) with liberalism overall being the greatest victor and anarchism the least successful.

Interesting to me how Aristotle explained this way back in the 4th century BC.

That is very true. However it doesn’t change the fact that tens of millions lost their lives during that horrible period in time.
then is communism or collectivism necessarily bad? If so, why do countries do so if there is no benefit for the society?
History should be the guide to policy, but it often is ignored.
Great video. But what did he say @ 4:56 ? lol
xmorg 🤣🤣🤣 impeccable timing.

So how could the Soviet Union not only survive but fight an industrial war against the first economy in the world for so long?
