@Correactor so why aren't there more co-ops?

@Correactor if it's a better system, seems like more people would be doing it. If it's not a better system, then it's at least worth entertaining the idea that you're wrong about capitalism.

Almost every time I see someone crying about capitalism online, what they're actually crying about is government corruption. In other words, the literal opposite of capitalism. Capitalism is the absence of government in the market, letting the market decide the market. And sure, there are problems with an unregulated market, that's why no country has ever had a completely unregulated market, but if you think minimum wage is too low, your problem isn't with capitalism, because according to capitalism there would be no minimum wage at all.

Everyone is a capitalist with their own money.

It's funny how they'll argue about how most people are progressive, and how nobody is progressive enough, depending on what dishonest narrative they're trying to push.

Since when did unregulated capitalism exist? The US is one of the most heavily regulated economies in world history.

@XboxxAyeRussiagate was also a lie.

@XboxxAyeoh, police brutality, that was also a lie.

@XboxxAyeand January 6th, that was also a lie. Want me to go on? Because I can.

@XboxxAye so tell me how many unarmed Americans are killed by police per year in the US. Just give it an estimate. Let's see how honest and informed you are.

@XboxxAye ah, so you don't know. Good job accidentally proving my point.

@Rob_Cary so why don't you go ahead and guess how many unarmed people are killed by police per year. Go ahead. Prove me wrong. Here's your chance.

@Rob_Cary yea I didn't think so. None of you know. You support violent riots for a cause you know absolutely nothing about.

The only people who don't like capitalism are too stupid or lazy to capitalize on anything.

Capitalism means letting people keep what they earn, nothing more, nothing less. It's fair. Socialism is demanding something from someone just because they have more than you. THAT is greed.

@ChristianEconcom capitalism is the literal opposite of forced transactions, it's voluntary trade of capital. Goddamnit leftists are stupid. How do you even eat? Do you have to have a spotter cut your food and chew it up for you?

Because socialism has such a stellar track record for putting people first. First for the firing squad.

@XboxxAyecorporations are socialist. They're publicly owned and traded companies that have to answer to the whims of their shareholders.

What lack of regulations? The US economy is one of the most heavily regulated markets in world history, we have regulations for our regulations that have regulations on them so we can put more regulations on the regulations for the regulations that are regulated by more regulations. Confused yet? Cuz that's the point.

@brandonm2520 seriously, these people have very severe mental issues. How you can think "unregulated capitalism" is the problem with one of the most heavily regulated economies in the world is some next level stupid. Stupid doesn't even describe it. It's something that's more stupid than stupid. The word doesn't exist.

@Rob_Cary the failure isn't the system, it's you. Plenty of people are doing just fine. People still come to the US from the poorest countries in the world with nothing but the clothes on their back and work their way up to middle class within a generation. What good excuse do you have for being a failure?
