  1. 10:10 Take from the successful and productive and give to the failing and unproductive. We have that here in Canada in the form of "equalization" payments stealing from Alberta and Saskatchewan to prop up Quebec and the Maritimes.

  3.  @albertsmith99  <How about be a good human being?> That is just not going to cut it. <That's why the world is in this state of chaos> This is the secular humanist, atheist, God and religion-free world humanity asked for. Too liberal for its own good.

  4.  @discoloured3492  <when 90% of European countries are literally 4th world countries lmao> Namely Eastern Europe that had its own experience with communism.

  6. <Maybe it would have been in the 80's or 90's where you'd get more money if you worked more hours, or you were rewarded with bonuses for doing more work.> It's not worth it today, because of how much money is taken from your paycheque by the government once you start working overtime.

  21. Most of the people in the video came from money. This is more laziness and wanting the easy way out in life.

  26. Actually no it isn't. There's more to being better off than just merely working hard or even working a well-paying job. You need a goal/plan and the discipline and diligence to stick to it which includes being able to budget, save and invest.

  27. <They can work to death and still not make it.> Which is a consequence of having no plan or budget. <The system isn’t built for the majority to thrive,> Neither is socialism which suppresses people's ability to improve their situations independent of the government.

  28.  @baldkiwi444  China is barely capitalist.

  29. BS! China is still reeling the poverty due to Mao's Cultural Revolution and Great Leap Forward policies that starved tens of millions to death and bankrupted it.
    1
  30. <we are left with a world where nobody wants to work.> Not just by that, but also often left-wing governments discouraging work and success with high taxes in favor of social welfare which perversely encourages laziness and failure.

  31. LM-O.

  32. Better that than the CCP.

  33. But some are better than others. And inequality is natural as not everyone can achieve and/or maintain the same level of prosperity.
