Hi all,
I’m seeing a lot of hate for capitalism here, and I’m wondering why that is and what the rationale behind it is. I’m pretty pro-capitalism myself, so I want to see the logic on the other side of the fence.
If this isn’t the right forum for a political/economic discussion-- I’m happy to take this somewhere else.
Cheers!
Capitalism is an amazing engine to produce wealth. But it’s also extremely opposed to the idea of distributing it.
It’s about voluntary redistribution by trading, gifting, and donating, rather than having someone forcefully redistribute your assets how they see fit.
Your description sounds so nice and fair - allowing everyone to take full control of their wealth.
So let me ask you: when was the last time you successfully negotiated the price of your groceries or utilities?
You don’t. Because that “fairness” only exists between entities of equal power.
Am.i supposed to give a fuck?
Gee I wonder why people are against folks like you.
