Socialism's Contradiction: Angels in Government?

[00:00:00]I have found that those who push a socialist ideology have a gross contradiction in their view of human nature.

[00:00:12]They say that human beings are wretched, self-interested, greedy when they're in the private voluntary economy, but they're angels when they're in the governmental economy. And therefore, they argue that the government should just control everything because then we have all these angels that will decide for us, decide what we get to where our money is spent, what we're supposed to believe, in the modern day, what kind of vehicles we drive, what we should think. Um, but that is a huge contradiction. If if a man if man is not capable of deciding for himself, surely he's not capable of deciding for others. And I think the worst worst vices in human nature come out when there is too much power and concentrated in their hands. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
