Adrian, even in situations where we do not have total socialism the price mechanism is still tampered with and influenced. The calculation problem still exists, only to a different degree. Business cycles for example are a type of economic mis-calculation. I wrote about this a long time ago, perhaps you’d be of interest.
So you would have to attempt to answer my questions above, as to how the state knows how much resources to allocate to police protection, and how do they know when they are pleasing consumers?
