How I see human society progress

[GrizzlyOne]

This is just me in general thinking outloud.

Decentralization >Merchantalism>Capitalism>Corporatism>Socialism>Communism

Decentralization - This is a system early humans have used without intervention of government or society

Merchantalism - Once an early society has formed and settled down, people will begin to sell goods that they have earned or made for other goods or currency which they can trade for even more goods.

Capitalism - An evolved form of Merchantalism, this economic system is set up so people earn how much based on how they work.

Corporatism - Capitalism itself naturally promotes the ambition out of people, some people will naturally take this too far., and these elites can pretty much make it to where nobody else can get ahead.

Socialism - After Corporatism has been in effect for a period of time, people will either violently change their government, or peacefully protest it in order for it to become Socalism, which as its roots is Capitalism but with government intervention. Over time, the government will respond to people's needs through various tax-paid programs.

Communism - Once a socialist government with several social programs has been in place for a certain amount of time, new generations of people will be born and be raised to believe that distribution of wealth and these social care programs are the best way to go about things. It gets to the point where if these people didn't have a government they could possibly function by itself for a while. Unlike a country in Africa, which would simply completely collapse if it didn't have any form of government. If the socialist government has been in place for thousands of years. People may evolve to function like a superorganism.

Thoughts?

I like the part with the groundless speculation, the absence of support of any kind, and what appears to be a very crude understanding of political theory.

So parasitism is progress? Heh.

Well, this is kinda warped.
I dunno, it feels kinda accurate.
But hey, what the fuck do I know?

If you don't study politics, you better shut up about it.

I see the society's progression is swinging back and forth between capitalism and communism like a pendulum.

The absence of evidence does not equal the evidence of absence.

I could give you example of why I think society is progressing this way though.

What do you mean?
