an economic system in which the central government directs all major economic decisions
prices
Supply and demand determines what will be produced.
A Planned economy, also known as a command economy, is an economic system in which the state directs the economy. The central government controls industry such that it makes all decisions regarding the production and distribution of goods and services. A planed economy is usually directed by central economic plan which is either put in place or influenced by the government. In a Planned economy the planners decide what should be produced and direct lower-level enterprises to produce those goods in accordance with national and social objectives. The Soviet Union, China, and India were all planned economies in the past.
The form of government is called: communism. The "people" are nominally the joint owners of all goods and products within the system. However, because the system is operated by a government apparatus (to ensure complete equality), the outcome has invariably been complete ownership by the state instead, and by its leadership. This also includes controlling most aspects of the lives of the populace. What appeared to Karl Marx to be an ideal and utopian existence has the fatal human "flaws" of self-interest, self-determination, and independent thought.
