    The Labour party tried this sort of thing between 1940s and 1970s.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Board_for_Prices_and_Incomes

    Is this a forum to discuss about socialism, or about business management ?

    I do not think Marx ever envision that type of society, he was an anti-capitalist, and a real socialist. The only ones who have spoken about Market socialism are the left wingers, and they are not  Marxists or socialists. We do not want quasi-communism, we want the real thing. Business and communism do not mix each other. It sounds like the market socialism of the Vietnamese, we want to get rid of the  market system along with the capitalist class. The Gulf and Western which is also a parent company of Paramount Pictures,  have killed many peoples in the Caribbean. They have filmed several horror  movies in that region, and they have paid to military and policemen to kill union leaders, and young peoples, and they have stolen large extension of lands to produce more profitsI have never had a romantic view of capitalism, it is a criminal system that must be uprooted for ever.Capitalism is not an economical system created for the poor, it is system that is only beneficial for the capitalist class, we can romanticize it, compose hymns, and  beautiful songs for this system, and kiss the asses of their leaders,  but it is not our system, and it is anti-natural. It is their capitalism.In a socialist society we are not going to have any  business administration, or schools of business administration, finance,  or business adventures, they are going to be placed in the museum of antique history

    Isn't it like the argument for rent control. Capitalists just move their money into more lucrative ventures. They'll get your surplus value somehow.

    @mcolome1This is the forum of the Socialist Party of Great Britain, so I think they get to decide what this forum is for discussing using whatever method socialist use for making decisions.

    @Jondwhite, That's a good argument.  I'm going to have to close down this discussion for the time being untill I can work out how to discuss this without tipping my hand to the capitalist who might try to subvert my idea.  Maybe I'm a little paranoid and maybe I'm just a crazy crackpot with a crazy bad idea.  please ignore what I wrote before. There's no urgency to this topic and I'll contribute to this thread later maybe? no response is necesary, if that's fine with you, and I'd prefer if this topic just drifted into irrelevance and fell off the top discussion list because nobody replied.  p.s. do you know of any way to remove this topic entirely and change the headline?  worst case scenario is if people respond too much and keep it alive then I have to spam your board and engage in disinformation to make the idea disapear.  You don't want a crazy person attacking your board in defense of a crazy idea. So no reply is probably the best response for everyone.

    Only the administrators can do that (e.g move to off topic or rubbish)  but you can use the edit facility to delete the content of all the posts you sent.

    That is the reason why Capitalism is known as the profit system
