   My problem with this particular poster is that he is confused about his   
   own position.   
   Mostly he is sitting on the fence, trying to appease   
   capitalism oriented people by creating a completely fragmented (along   
   national lines) market-capitalist socio-economic hypothetical model,   
   which sadly disregards the environmental impact of society on our   
   resources and the strategic problems of large scale production,   
   distribution and demand for goods, which given the population size of our   
   planet are quite daunting. He sadly rejects any forms of central planning   
   even if it is only advisory, any forms of internationalism and the global   
   scale solidarity of working people even when it comes to health and   
   science.   
   In essence, his stance is social democratic but tinted with a bit of   
   nationalistic bias.
