You don’t need money to bribe

I understand the theory of it, you aren’t listing any devices to prevent abuse

What’s your military/police?

So did private ownership

That wasn’t what Capitalism was about

In the wealth of nations Smith talks great lengths about the labourer being king of the market not the landowners and that with advancement in technology costs should go down except land owners prevent that

The whole system is supposed to favour the labourer compared to Mercantilism where the rich got richer because they owned the production

It also praised the American colonies for open immigration saying they could double their population faster than anyone in Europe and that would double their economy

So you realize that the problems with capitalism are what it set out to prevent

That doesn’t make the core of capitalism the opposite

That means it’s not true capitalism

The problem is greed that will exist in any system because people with power will degrade/morph any system to be self serving

So you know capitalism paints that landowners are bad and the labourer as essentially

Claims the labourer should be the one that gets the money

Claims money should be given out based of effort

But you think giving money out based on effort is a bad definition for it

That’s right?

What system doesn’t?

ILikeBoobies,

We have term limits for governments but not for corporations

Their ability to last indefinitely allows them more control than anyone thought possible

And no matter what system you choose; they will act in self interest that will allow them to expand/erode the system to benefit themselves

ILikeBoobies,

So pick one

Yeah, capitalism was drawn up to prevent that

Turns out that people with money/power will influence laws to their own benefit

ILikeBoobies, (edited )

Who checks if people are contributing/who divides the resources up?

Can I not bribe them to get more?

ILikeBoobies,

He wrote the book on capitalism

The system literally came from that book

You really should read Wealth of Nations

We don’t live in a capitalist society, it’s important to note because the “dream of capitalism” is impossible to achieve

Spinny plate and letting it sit afterwards

Yes a wave has peaks and valleys

Rotating reduces this short coming

And waiting allows the heat to spread

ILikeBoobies,

Such a good show but they got a gay relationship and AFAIK it was cancelled for having a plot which the exec thought wouldn’t work in a cartoon

ILikeBoobies,

Or the Disney that didn’t let the cops be gay in Gravity Falls, or the Disney that doesn’t let gays in Pixar films, or the Disney that relegated Finn to a minor character for being black

ILikeBoobies,

Somehow, Khan has returned
