Here are my two cents for this debate: Socialism will work only in heaven where there are no earthly needs exist. "There", people are busy with their own idiosyncratic passions and nobody checks their productivity. Socialism has totally failed us and it has no future in our current or future society. Some Indian diehards still might be dreaming about those Lenin/Stalin's days without having to experience the practicalities of slavery under the unelected state apparatchiks. These morons should go to Cuba and ask Cubans about their experience about socialism!

> However, I disagree with the point that socialism has failed. Socialism which Marx enunciated is very different from what was tried out. Among the rarely-erudite scholars on Marx and Marxism who stated ingenuously that the drift began with Lenin is Prof Paresh Chattopadhyay of the University of Quebec. Therefore, it's not ethical to blame socialism.Â
