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!

    I’d like to add to this that enough ‘value’ is left with the masses to keep them comfortable enough or close enough to breaking out of the pits that they aren’t willing to rock the boat too much.

    Many of us have been afraid to lose what little we have had in life. And if you don’t prioritize making money, a made up concept, you cannot get out of the pits in this society.

        Is not seen that so blatantly laid out. Yes, that is capitalism. It’s pretty gross.
