Economic theory

Market socialism

State and markets are involved in production. Their role in economy are approximately same, but in developed countries this distribution may change in favor of markets.

State and markets export independently of each other, and work to maximize exports. Markets pay the remaining part of the income obtained of exports from costs and profits as taxes.

State stands out in the education, health and infrastructure. Markets develop themselves in sectors such as trade. State avoids competition with markets, doesn't provide goods and services with values that would upset the balance of markets.

Markets are regularly inspected by state.

Social justice

Incomes obtained by state from the exports and taxes collected from markets are used to support the disadvantaged people of society. Through exports, economic development and social justice progress in parallel.

Except for inheritance tax, taxes are tried to be kept at low values.

Economic democracy

Economic democracy and workplace democracy are practiced.

Eco-cooperativism

State develops green economy policies and encourages renewable sources of energy use. In the long term, profits increase and damage to nature is prevented.

Cooperative system is made widespread in some sectors, especially agriculture. In developing regions, autonomous cooperatives under state control are established.

Khomeinism - While I appreciate your opposition to US imperialism, I think it's better to find a middle way between progressivism and conservatism, give importance to democracy and not use religion for politics.

Comrade Ivanoff - I don't approve some of your political views because of their capitalist nature.

Thugtholomew - I think your political views, influenced by science and democracy, are not bad. But we are completely different in economic and social axes.
