That doesn't seem to follow, to me. What we do know is the current system doesn't work as it has collapsed and is being propped up by massive infusions of taxpayer dollars.
What that means, essentially, is that the US taxpayer is subsidizing all profits that are being taken in our economy. Simply recovering that percentage would immediate create a better standard of living for all people. Not to mention the massive waste attributable to corruption, rampant cronyism etc that would be ended by planning the allocation instead of leaving it to the vagaries of "market forces".
