906 (1 of 10 series) How Shortages (food/clothing/shelter/old-age-security) are to be met in a Truly Socialist Country, in comparison to a Capitalist Country

Triggers for writing this particular blog post: 1) A news item titled: Let’s not blow vegetable shortages “out of proportion”, says Total Produce chief in Producebusinessuk.com. Click here to go to http://www.producebusinessuk.com/purchasing/stories/2017/02/17/let-s-not-blow-vegetable-shortages-out-of-proportion-says-total-produce-chief and study it. 2) Death of Millions of People in China during 1959-62, as China's the then Ruler Mao Ze Dong neglected to become-aware and to be beware of the problems of food shortages in his reign. Here is a Wikipedia.org link: Click to go to Wikipedia.org, Mao Ze Dong Page, and the paragraph 'Great Leap Forward'.. 3) A general situation of 'Shortages of agricultural commodities in India', in respect of commodities such as a) onions b) pulses (lentils) c) sugar. Before taking up the analyses, I shall like to start with a quote from Mao Ze Dong at the aforesaid Wikipedia.org page. With the quote, I am not agreeing.

"Revolution is not a dinner party, nor an essay, nor a painting, nor a piece of embroidery; it cannot be so refined, so leisurely and gentle, so temperate, kind, courteous, restrained and magnanimous. A revolution is an insurrection, an act of violence by which one class overthrows another." — Mao, February 1927.["Mao Zedong on War and Revolution". Quotations from Mao Zedong on War and Revolution. Columbia University. Retrieved November 12, 2011.; Feigon 2002, p. 41].

Views of ybrao-a-donkey which are not intended to be imposed on others

Revolutions are to be more leisurely and slower than dinners, painting hobbies, embroidery knittings. Revolutions are bound to be refined, else they will not last long. They are bound to be not only gentler, but also to be compassionate, courteous, restrained and magnanimous. Else, they will generate repugnances and repulsions. Killing Class Enemies is not a solution because, if Class Enemies of 20th Century are totally annihilated (impossible) in the 20th Century, new Class Enemies will be born in the 21st Century. It is a continuous process.

Slower and Awareness Based Revolutions can create an environment in which Class Enemies are not born. A Healthy body can resist pathogenic bacteria. AntiBiotics can occasionally work, but worse than the AntiBiotics, the Violent Revolutions can never work, and even if they temporarily work, the results can never last long.

First of all the word 'Revolution' has become hackneyed and a jargon, owing to excess use by Maoist Groups. They believe that Revolutions can take place only through barrels of gun, whereas true revolutions can take place in any manner, including non-violent means. What is required is a 'Will' of the people, and 'compelling circumstances' to force them to opt for it.

By defining Revolutions as violent Insurrections, taking place between warring classes, Mao Ze Dong did incalculable harm to the word 'Revolution. On account of this erroneous impression of his, Communism had lost its attraction of a really useful and usable system of Economy and Economics. Today, in my view, even if China has accumulated Forex Reserves of nearly a Trillion Dollars (which are under strain for various reasons), still, China continues to be a State of Barbaric Capitalism, and it is a laughing stock worthy of rebuke, owing to its pretentious facade as a Communist Country.

First of all , there are no warring classes. There is only one Class 'Working Class'. Even BIll Gates and Warren Buffet should fall in the Working Class (also termed as Proletariat). Sadly enough, our Super Rich and, Rich believe that they belong to a Class of their Own. This is because of an incorrect self-cognition, and an inadequate self-realisation.

Mahatma GAndhi thought that Business Persons and Industrialists should act as Trustees for their Wealth. This has not worked. It will not work. It is like asking a tiger not to eat a cow, or asking a serpant not to bite a human.

Voluntary self-cognition that they belong to Working Class, can never arise in Business Persons and Industrialists. Then, the only solution is, we have to eliminate from the Society all the extraneous occupations which promote exploitation-- such as Business Persons, Industrialists. This has to come through only a democratic process. A democratic process can work correctly and effectively, only if Working Class is ENLIGHTENED AND TRULY EDUCATED. All this enlightenment and education, becomes real only if there is intellectual progressive transformation of Working Class. It is not easy, but it is possible. When Wright Brothers (or somebody else) invented aircraft, and Edison (or somebody else) invented Electric Bulb, before that people thought that it was impossible, but they made it a reality.

DEMOCRATIC REVOLUTIONS CAN LIBERATE THE WEALTHY CLASSES FROM THEIR BONDAGE TO THEIR WEALTH

The Wealthy Classes do not know that they have become prisoners and slaves to their own wealth, by becoming lucrepaths.. They even do not know that they have been incarcerated by their own greed and attachments. Consequently, they are unable to sleep fearlessly in Open, move freely on pavements with their God-given legs. The Working Class will have to free the Wealthy from their serfdom, through democratic and legal means, seizing their wealth, which is nothing but 'Removal of the Right of Private Property and Income'. Private Enterprise will have to be substituted by State Enterprise. Though State Capitalism is shunned by Capitalist Economists, there is no alternative, for the disease of LUCREPATHY.

BACK TO SHORTAGES OF AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES IN ENGLAND

Continuous dependence on imported vegetables and fruits, might have led to degeneration of agriculture in U.K. Ever increasing populations can also contribute to conversion of agricultural lands into house sites. Excess industrialisation can knock away lands from farmers, making fenced industrial compounds ubiquitous. Agriculture is like a delicate baby. It is the most beautiful occupation, the Nature has gifted to Humans, by its bounty. By neglecting cultivation, and giving prominence to some useless glossy occupations like "Fashion Design", "Cricket", "Tennis", we have started insulting agriculture. Hence, Capitalist Countries which frequently speak about, but which always neglect "Optumum Use of Resources" should suffer, and the People who voted the Capialist Governments to Power, should suffer. Failure of Rains / Excess Rain in Spanish vegetable gardens and consequent shortages in U.K. is only an excuse for Artificial shortages indulged in by Malls and Super Markets.
