    Capitalism is when everything's the best. Capitalism is literally when everything is perfect. How can you argue against that? If it's not perfect, it is, by its very definition, not capitalism. And that means it's communism. Checkmate gommies :cryptocurrency: :last-sight:

    I love that the flip side of "capitalism is when good stuff" is "Wal-Mart jobs and Dominos pizza is the best we can do under capitalism".

    I mean, China and Russia went from feudalistic states constantly at war with themselves to industrial, economic superpowers in just a few years, but go off.

      why be a fan of capitalism lmao?

      Because the Capitalism Game is what's playing on everyone's Freemium TV 24/7, while sports only broadcast for a few hours during prime time behind the paywall. And even then, the Capitalism Of Sports plays as much a role in the conversation about the game as anything else.

    Capitalism: a foot race where the last 10% of people are shot and ground into dog food and some people start with a 500 mile head start and others start with their feet entombed in cement

    Edit: and every step someone takes kills a random wild plant or animal

    This guy's entire posting history consists of dropping the same questions over and over (not even worded differently) into debate bro subs, and consistently getting people to fall for the bait. It's actually amazing. He's been doing this for at least a year, and people still engage him.

    Why are wages low? wages are very high. In fact in America you can make $15 an hour right off the boat with no English and no experience while half the world lives at $5.50 a day.

    stopped reading here. The entire world operates on capitalism. So the $5.50 is just as much the fault of capitalism that $15 an hour is.

      I enjoy this little factoid, because it neglects the filter through which we subject aspiring migrants. Odds are, you're making far more than $15/hr. We deliberately select for professional workers and other capital investors. If you were earning $5.50/day in your home country we simply would not process your application to enter the country.
