  • It is inevitable

  • It is impossible

  • It is harmful

  • It is perfect

Answer

Schumpeter believed that socialism was an inevitable outcome of capitalism's inherent contradictions. He argued that the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a few capitalists would eventually lead to a socialist revolution. However, he did not believe that socialism would be a successful system in the long run. He predicted that it would eventually collapse due to its own inefficiencies and contradictions.
