The idea that capitalism brings us the most freedom and choice. You and I get access to a large variety of cheap goods that are easy to access. But that is only true because there are millions of people in the global south with miserable lives who work for dirt wages and don't have access so the same economic freedom that their labor creates for the rest of the world. Capitalism is supposedly freeing but actually it can't exist without gross exploitation.
