    Once againe, african youtubers who refuse to study books! What is socialist? An idea born in France, developed in Germany, experimented with in China, Russia. Socialism just means that the workers must control the means of production. No different than communalism, where the villagers share the fruit of labor with all members of the village.

    Regardless its a failed theory. The socialist calculation problem. It will never work, and african people want to own things not share everything.

    The feasibility of implementing such a system on a larger scale is limited due to the inherent risk of power monopolization and resource centralization, which can lead to a few individuals exerting control over various aspects. While the concept of egalitarianism may be appealing, it is not practical for a nation to adopt such a system as it is inevitable that a select few will seize authority. Therefore, decentralization is crucial in order to maintain stability and promote the well-being of a larger population.

    @@kevinlipps2817 We learned about monopolies under capitalism. All system can lead to abuse if the population is corrupt and complacent. Such is the majority of these African population. Until you have an active population that's general good people no system can fix their country. Unless you get a benevolent leader that force good governance on them.

    Dangote, the current richest black man was from a Kano trading family (on the transaharan route). His great grand father and great uncle were very wealthy Groundnut merchants. My own great grand dad was into building materials. Many families were known by their trade. Capitalism is not white or brown or black. Its just folks trading. The West simply practiced greed, which Extreme end of Capitalism. Normal capitalism encourages healthy competition and introduces innovation. And allows exchange of goods n services from the experts at it

    Capitalism is not "just trading". Capitalism is institutionally robbing the working people of the wealth they create, and allocating it to those who own the factories, land, machines, etc. Remove all the additional workers from these capitalist enterprises, and what wealth would there be afterwards?

    Socialism and communism are effective in smaller settings; however, when implemented on a larger scale, such as at the national level, countries may struggle to compete globally. Ideally, a mixed economy is preferred to ensure competitiveness, as socialism alone may not be conducive to global competition.

    It is widely believed today that our society operates under a capitalistic system, allowing a small group of individuals to dominate the majority of available resources. However, upon closer examination, it becomes apparent that what we actually have is an oligarchical system, characterized by extensive protectionism for the ruling class, which is unable to effectively compete in a free market. For these individuals, socialism and communism are seen as ideal, as they enable the use of governmental systems to enforce their own authority, ultimately ensuring that the majority of people are left in a state of poverty or even worse off. For instance, the development of alternative currencies in your country can be hindered by issues similar to those experienced during Gaddafi's rule. The protectionism of the oligarchical system has resulted in a power structure that hinders the majority of individuals from achieving stability outside of the established system. An example of this is the difficulty in creating alternative currencies in your country, as seen during Gaddafi's rule. The protectionism of the oligarchical system has led to a power structure that prevents most people from achieving stability outside the system. Additionally, within these oligarchical systems, it is evident that economies can be easily manipulated to concentrate wealth, thereby restricting the majority of individuals from attaining the economic freedom required to access essential resources for true liberation.

    Traditional Afrikan societies were based in community and productivity. Everyone ate any adequate housing, etc. and everyone was productive without having to kill themselves working 80 hours a week. If we base our communities in productivity again with community goals then everyone should be well taken care of. After we are all in good condition then we can use our extra time in search of profits for self and local communities

    It was not a productive economy. Thats why they were conquered. Even Haiti today have a higher standard of living than what existed in pre colonial Africa, or even pre capitalist Europe. Romanticism is dangerous.

    Throughout history, African societies have predominantly followed a capitalist economic system, which has contributed to their prosperity. However, many African nations have rejected capitalism due to its association with colonialism, despite it being an economic ideology. This rejection has resulted in the adoption of self-destructive ideologies, hindering business growth in the region. Excessive regulation in Africa has led to problems such as corruption and limited business potential, ultimately preventing economic advancement. As a result, African countries rank low on the business index, reflecting a shared struggle with economic opportunities.

    I think we need to redefine socialism or come up with new word since the word socialism triggers people. To me socialism menans people first profit second. Right now there are enough world changing inventions and cures that can solve almost all of our problems. However the capitalist system keeps away from the public by all means. A good example of such inventor is Maxwell Chikumbutsu from Zimbabwe.

    If we study Nkrumah's Consciencism, it is made clear that the principles eminating from traditional African society find their lineage in socialism, not capitalism. In fact, most of the world grew out of traditions of communalist, egalitarianist, collectivist principles, that are today only found in socialist societies. What triggers people is the capitalist propaganda about socialism, and particular attempts that ultimately abandoned socialism, not socialism itself. Eric Williams points out in Capitalism and Slavery, that capitalism grew out of the trans-Atlantic human trafficking, and the vast wealth created from enslaved African labor. So we cannot be confused on the origins of socialism or capitalism as economic systems. Capitalists falsely claim that all market exchanges are capitalist, and thereby claim that African and other early societies were capitalist, not communalist. They omit that capitalism was itself a system imposed through war and other methods of violence to overthrow earlier economic systems that evolved since communalism. Capitalism essentially institutionalizes the privatization of the wealth produced by many. Capitalism is not an individual producing for her/himself to sell in markets. Such transactions have occurred almost since the dawn of human society. What distinguished capitalism from socialism, is not individual sake of goods produced, but the collective effort of the production, which is them snatched from the productive collective to be owned and controlled by an unproductive parasitic minority! This is how capitalist wealth is accumulated. Capitalism overturns the rights of the collective to their collectively produced wealth, to make that wealth the private property of individuals who form a class with political and economic interests of and expanding their control over more and more people, to take ownership of the wealth they produce. This is the essence of colonization and imperialism.. Socialism, on the other hand, overturns this privatization of collectively produced wealth, in order to restore the rights of the collective to what they produce. This has been done by the states imposing restrictions on the rights of capitalists to exploit others, so it is described by capitalists as authoritarian and against freedom. Capitalists never discuss the freedom and rights of their workers, only their own freedoms and rights. Their workers live under authoritarian rule while in the workplace, which translates to authoritarian rule in political and social life. The mass of workers are dependent on the philanthropy of capitalists to fund social programs that allow them to survive capitalist exploitation and oppression. This is why housing, healthcare, education, are not rights in capitalist economies. But capitalists have rights to influence and bribe politicians to do their bidding in government. Capitalists describe the governments they control through financing as, democratic, but this is against the very meaning of democracy, which means rule by the people. This is why elections in countries are really determined by money which pays for corporate campaigns to convince people which candidate to vote for. In contrast, in many/most socialist countries, candidates are not allowed to spend money on campaigns, and they all are allowed and obligated to participate in forums to explain themselves to the people.

    Traditional African culture is exploitive. King and serves system. How do we think the Chiefs had such power to sell people without any opposition. We can see how the African population is subservient to those in power, its a conditioning long before Europeans. Traditional Africa culture is not suited for advancement in this world. Any of these modern systems can be used to advance Africa, the problem with Africa is its underlying traditional corrupt culture. China made it with Socialism ,education, self sacrafice and America n Japan made it with semi capitalism, war, exploitation, education

    An Ubuntu angle should be at the center of 'economic system' conversations amongst African people because Ubuntu facilitates an African vibe/narrative in socio-context, consensus-building, creating dialogue, teamwork, idea integration and mutual respect. It would foster a mindset that components of a mixed economy, as in the intertwine of free market, social safety nets and public-private partnerships, maximize societal effectiveness. Discussing economics using the terms of 'capitalism' and 'socialism' create hostility and heated arguments amongst African people because these 2 aforementioned economic systems have been articulated and voiced from an mzungu-oriented perspective, mainly from the opposite poles of winners and losers. As Africans, our economic narrative should be to design systems and strategies based on the notion that 'everyone can win'.😊
