@sandro123429 South Korea is not doing well.
Capitalism is not a meritocracy. It can't be when companies and individuals have more power than governments, so that they get to write and, or ignore the law.
I agree we're always in changing times, but it's a sign of these times that we allow ourselves to be dictated to.
To allow ourselves to be brainwashed into believing that there are only two ways to organise society.
The best way having ruthlessness as the measure of success.
There's been an explosion of homeless people in my city centre from one person in the early 1990s to a hundred now.
That's just the centre which also has few open businesses other than betting shops, pawn shops and charities.
I knew 20 homeless people and in five years, five of them are dead.
How are homeless people doing now in former communist countries? Is the average life expectancy on the street 50 years old like it is here?..
I was told by someone from central Europe that there are more homeless people now, but the communist government used to be so corrupt, even if everyone had somewhere to live.
Are the UK, US, etc governments not corrupt?
220,000 dead from austerity since 2008 and the same again for Covid inaction all to protect profits.
440,000 dead, at least in 16 years to protect profit.
I'm looking forward to choosing my Freedom ™️ canned air in the future because someone's got to be paid for filling those canisters and it's not business's fault that clean, breathable air is no longer a thing...
