Mises about Redistribution
“Our whole civilization rests on the fact that men have always succeeded in beating off the attack of the re-distributors.”
Ludwig von Mises, Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis
“Unsere ganze Zivilisation beruht auf der Tatsache, dass es den Menschen immer gelungen ist, den Angriff der Umverteiler abzuwehren.”
Ludwig von Mises, Die Gemeinwirtschaft – Untersuchungen über den Sozialismus (1922)

Mises: The relation between nationalism and socialism (or “the right” vs. “the left”)
“The nationalist, too, affirms Socialism, and objects only to its Internationalism. He wishes to combine Socialism with the ideas of Imperialism and the struggle against foreign nations. He is a national, not an international socialist; but he, also, approves of the essential principles of Socialism.”
Ludwig von Mises, Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis
“Auch der Nationalismus bejaht den Sozialismus; was er ihm vorzuwerfen hat, ist lediglich das, daß er „international“ sei. Der Nationalist will auch den Sozialismus mit den Gedanken des Imperialismus und des Kampfes gegen die fremden Völker verbinden. Er ist nicht internationaler, sondern nationaler Sozialist; aber auch er bekennt sich im Wesen zum Sozialismus.”
Ludwig von Mises, Die Gemeinwirtschaft – Untersuchungen über den Sozialismus (1922)
Hitler didn’t call his ideology national-socialism for nothing. Also, it is no coincidence that the AfD has its biggest electoral successes in east germany, i.e. in the former GDR. Just sayin’.

Mises: The welfare state and socialisms goals
“No longer should individuals by their buying or abstention from buying determine what is to be produced and in what quantity and quality. Henceforth the government’s unique plan alone should settle all these matters. ‘Paternal’ care of the ‘Welfare State’ will reduce all people to the status of bonded workers bound to comply, without asking questions, with the orders issued by the planning authority.”
“To abolish private property in the means of production, to make the means of production the property of the community, that is the whole aim of Socialism.”
Ludwig von Mises, Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis
“Nicht mehr sollte der Einzelne durch seinen Kauf oder Kaufverzicht bestimmen, was in welcher Menge und Qualität produziert werden soll. Fortan sollte der einzigartige Plan der Regierung alle diese Angelegenheiten regeln. Die “väterliche” Betreuung des “Wohlfahrtsstaates” reduziert alle Menschen auf den Status eines Schuldners, der verpflichtet ist, die von der Planungsbehörde erteilten Anordnungen zu befolgen, ohne Fragen zu stellen.”
“Das Privateigentum an den Produktionsmitteln abzuschaffen, die Produktionsmittel zum Eigentum der Gemeinschaft machen, das ist das ganze Ziel des Sozialismus.”
Ludwig von Mises, Die Gemeinwirtschaft – Untersuchungen über den Sozialismus (1922)
That is the ultimate consequence of socialism. Whether you like it or not. Therefore, it can not work and will never work, because people have free willand reason. And they have to use them to sustain their lifes. A system that reduces people to drones is EVIL, out of touch with reality and can not work – no matter how much the oh-so-social left writhes. It is stupid and paradoxical to even call this system “socialism” because it is the exact opposite of social.
No offense, but people who defend something like that either have no idea, are cowards or just hungry for power.
