“… the primitive comprehension that the state property represents a social one, their identification, and their equalization could not resist the criticism of the time. The state property is not socialism. The state-monopoly property, as it was on the both sides of the Berlin Wall and which continues to be such one even after it dropped down, is not social property. There was never and nowhere any socialism!

We were visited by a utopian socialism, which at the contemporary stage is simply capitalism—state, monopolistic.”
