| The government taking over? Well things would run smoother, supposing that everyone works for the state and not privately, they should be more willing to cooperate with each other. The problem is that the more people work together, the more they could scam from the people. How about the state seeing what would be most profitable for it and banning the rest, the consumer would suffer from a more restriced market, meaning prices could go up for said goods, seeing as how the choices aren't there so they must buy the goods that are, and that will cost more, because of the options available to them. With the government planning what the prices will be, sort of price fixing, they could make a lot from asking for money from the people to be allowed to sell goods there, like selling the rights to trade. With the state, or a few people in the loop, they could rob the country blind.
Poison for the system! |
