      Exactly how I’m thinking. If something like the Holomodor is your compromise position, you might be an insane tankie.

      Yeah, it turns out when a small group of people own all the grain and cattle for an entire country, they’ll probably demand more and more money until you can’t afford to feed people anymore. Then, if you try to cease the grain and cattle to give to the people, the few rich farm owners will probably burn all the grain and slaughter all the cattle because if they can’t make a profit, then people should starve. Rough times.
