When it's still possible, gradual, well regulated changes can breathe life into a decaying country with minimal loses, but when the decay is too advanced you have to amputate and go for a refoundation. And the issue of total capitalism vs total communism is clear: neither works. A mid point is needed, with the state having enterprises of it's own, controlling basic services like gas, electricity, water, roads and such, and regulating work laws; but at the same time individuals need to be allowed to have their own, own the houses, items and benefits they earn and be able to start their own bussiness as long as they're legal (with law being reasonable) with minimal intervention from the state. That's the only way to have a country where there's both an active economy and society, and basic living conditions are assured."}
