The fundamental problem with Socialism is - where does the money come from to pay for all this free Welfare stuff ?

Norway has a huge income from oil exports and so they can afford to be all Welfarey.

Russia tried it once and gladly dumped it as a waste of time.

Greece is on its knees because of dabbling with the unaffordable Welfare stuff as it doesn't have a big income from exports.

What is needed is a huge income source such as mining exports to provide the money as Socialism encourages bludgers who won't work to boost the GDP.

Imagine where Australia would be without the iron ore and coal exports. Broke!!!!!
Well said.
