When has there ever been "pure capitalism" in any modern society?

Nobody owes you anything just because they have more than you. I doubt you ever argue about how you should have to give more to people who have less than you

@critterfritter69 why are you entitled to money someone else earned?
2
It's really pretty basic shit. A lot of people can carry heavy stuff all day, only a certain amount of those same people are capable of overseeing the whole project.

@nickthompson1812 it means they should be paid their share of the profit from the project, minus whatever they have to pay the employees. It's obviously more complicated than that, but that's the most reductive explanation of how the pay is determined. It's not just some magic make believe number that someone decided they should get, it's based on the profits of their service.

Nope. If you work hard all your life to provide for your family, your family is entitled to whatever you want to give them.

@theotormon yes, you can do that too. That's a completely separate thing from their financial inheritance.

@theotormon you lefties sure do come up with creative ways to try to justify why you're entitled to someone else's money. If only you could put some of that effort towards actually earning money.

That's completely untrue, even a poor person in present day America has a better quality of life than middle class people in most other countries. Capitalism is objectively the most successful economic system in societal history, more people have come out of poverty under capitalist systems than every socialist system put together.

@JanglesPrime999 it's part of what's going on, a big part that most people on the left refuse to acknowledge. You can make a "living wage" on practically nothing, you just have to stop buying crap you don't need.

There are more people who can chop wood or pick up shit than the amount of people who can oversee the entire company.

Well stated, it's really a bizarre outlook on life, the obsession with equality, the childish jealousy of everyone who has more. It's like they don't even understand that some people will always do more, even if we had a UBI that was equal to whatever the eggheads decide is the minimum "living income", so nobody had to work and we had everything we need, some people would still choose to do more and obtain more wealth and resources. You can't stop that.

If you can't find a way to make more than minimum wage, you're a failure.

@Jasmine_U_B but some people have more valuable skills than other people.
1
@eldrickemc4602 ok, but there's higher demand for higher skilled jobs, so they get paid more.
1
@eldrickemc4602 everyone suffers sometimes. It's part of the human condition. Nobody owes you anything because they have more than you, stop being so greedy and selfish.

They can't be that smart, or they would have figured out a way to not be poor.

@miguelzurita3216 it's very appealing rhetoric for lazy people who want money but don't want to work. Progressivism is very deliberately designed to attract the worst people in society, because they have no morals. There's no limit to what you can manipulate them into doing.

When regular people say "work hard", they're not saying you have to do back breaking manual labor, in fact if you're really working hard the right way, you probably won't be breaking rocks for very long, because you work your way up beyond that position. Working hard means discipline, and long term goals.
1
@trappedinamerica7740 you're probably one of those jackasses that does busy work all day and pretends like you should be employee of the year, when everyone else is more concerned with doing the real work.
1
@jackjohnson5672 but they can replace the low-level work horses. That's why they don't get paid as much.
1
@justsomeguy6336 yea these people are hopeless. Leftism is a mental disorder.

Nobody is penniless and destitute without making bad decisions.

@robertbustos2371 they could have made better decisions.
