Starts out with a strong message and continues that theme throughout the book. At no point was I confused in what the author was trying to convey. Also, very quick read, was able to finish in one sitting. Looking forward to other books from the author in the future, such as “why Dictatorship works” and “why flat earth is correct.”

Lievesley brings an unique and historically accurate view to the argument regarding the feasibility of a socialist economic system.

He takes the complex history of the economics of states in which the masses controlled the means of production and craftily articulates their successes in compelling, yet easy-to-read, concepts.

It is an incredibly well researched book, to the point that I could not find a single inaccuracy on any of it's 160 pages.

As someone always opposed to socialism, was looking for a book proving that it can work. Here it is!
This is the best book written on socialism, beating even the greatest works of von Mises and Rothbard.

I would also recommend the other book of the author - "Does Communism work?".

Finished reading this well thought out book in minutes.

This book cuts to the core of all pro socialism debates right on the first page, and sticks to it the whole way through.

The material is presented in such a manor that it is easy to retain and recite.

This is an amazing teaching guide. Well done.

It's supposed to be humorous, it just says that it doesn't on every page

I can't believe I ever thought otherwise. Every point was fleshed out and made so clear, my capitalist mind simply shattered. Guess I should join the Communist party or something.

It embodies Karl Marks and Frederich Engels all together in, what I call, a true masterpiece. Their ideologies have never been transcribed to our modern society to such degree of dexterity and clarity. Every line of this book is worth your eye-time.

A real page repeater. Perfect for fans of minimalism… and Marximalism.
Could’ve been an email. Or a tweet. Or a Post-it.
Deeply consistent. Much like government bureaucracy. It says what it means, and means what it says. Again. And again.
