Examples of Command Economies

My Lifestyle

  • I go to work every day to help the society as a whole. I didn't choose my job, it was chosen for me, probably from a test, and there is little to no incentive for thinking and very little freedom. I have no incentive to work hard. No matter what I do, I make the same as everyone else except the leader of the country.The government controls many facets of my life.
