  1.  @Diabolical05  that wasn’t even Wolff’s only fallacy. He lies constantly. Every video I see of him I can point out multiple lies or just made up claims not supported by evidence.

  2.  @challe535 capitalism is an economic system of private property ownership and control. To see what it “does” you have to actually look at the data and define what you are talking about specifically.

  3.  @ericsuarez834  no he is not
    8
  4.  @LongDefiant wrong again. You’re just projecting your own inability to think
    8
  5.  @confusedarmchairphilosopher  false. It was socialist as demonstrated by TIK and many many primary sources.
    8
  6.  @ericsuarez834 nope he lied repeatedly and I have the receipts
    7
  7.  @ryanosterman2651 no, you both clearly do not because the state is antithetical to capitalism. Your error is complaining about a mixed market environment particularly the government side of things and then wrongly blaming capitalism.
    7
  8. And both are terrible

  9.  @Trip4man  market prices are formed through supply and demand on a macro level from the input of many buyers and sellers. They aren’t dictated by one party just making things up.

  10.  @ericsuarez834  he did have better points. Laffer has the facts while people like you and Wolff spew lies
    6
  11.  @Trip4man  you’re the only one spewing ignorance here with your complete inability to understand how market prices are not unilaterally determined.

  12.  @michaelmappin1830  no it doesn’t. That is another lie. The market for labor has shown wages to go up over time. Working hours also went down with labor saving technology. This is another lie.
    6
  13.  @jermainemyrn19  he is right and you are wrong. Workers aren’t just going to suddenly finance businesses out of nothing. Bosses serve a vital role both in management and ownership when it comes to financing a business. Grow up!

  14.  @ericsuarez834  right from the start with the stagnant wage myth. I listed multiple others in my top level comments.

  15. Wow that took all of just a few seconds for Wolff to lie. Real wages have gone up consistently. Productivity is NOT what the worker gives the employer. Productivity is what an entire firm produces which includes all of the inputs, not just labor. So he spews two lies at once. Good on Laffer for pushing back on that.

  16.  @AlanDavidDoane  that is also wrong. You would support capitalism if you knew what it was, what the actual record was and weren’t a liar or misanthropic person.

  17.  @michaelmappin1830  profit is not paying extra. Quit spewing lies
    5
  18.  @LongDefiant  Wolff does not have a better system and you don’t either
    4
  19.  @Diabolical05 yep this
    4
  20. Yep. Not only could he not define his terms and stick with a definition throughout, but he also got caught lying about the growth of the USSR again.

  21.  @Sandcrackattack  you have not studied economics or you wouldn’t attempt to call that essay in any way intelligent or scientific.
    4
  22.  @SenecaRapson wrong. They say that you cannot derive meaningful causative pathways from empirics alone and without an underlying theory and a priori understanding. But that is all irrelevant smear merchant nonsense because Einstein being wrong about economics has nothing to do with that. They did show him to be wrong on economics and instead of addressing that you are being childish

  23.  @challe535  it’s literally how it is defined. No one forces you to work for someone else or work for yourself or work for a coop, you have that choice under capitalism. It is decentralized.
    4
  24.  @hanmoehtet  exactly. He is lying. He gets corrected but keeps repeating the same garbage as before
    4
  25.  @thisisdami01  no they are not and no the US department of agriculture did NOT say so. Quit lying. There are virtually zero people starving in the US.
    4
  26.  @Jessupz  nope yours is the complete lie. People are not dying in large numbers from starvation or malnutrition in the US. Capitalism is not present around the globe. It is not a global system. Some countries have more private enterprise and others have more state ownership or collective ownership.

  27. Nope he lost
    3
  28.  @slimmerskimmer  😂 no. That one doesn’t even exist.
    3
  29. 😂 nope he lost hands down. Marxists always lose because they live in a land of lies and delusion. He had to be corrected on his stagnant wage nonsense right out of the gate
    3
  30. They haven’t. Wolff’s have though
    3
  31.  @Chizstarz86  and that too is a complete lie and idiotic nonsense. Workers do not risk more than an employer. Losing the job does not lose the worker money or make them financially worse off than before they started the job. Wolff did not answer the question, he just lied more.
    3
  32.  @michaelmappin1830 capitalists are not living off of other people’s labor. Don’t you get tired of lying for a living? You already got proven wrong on this multiple times before including on live debate. The labor theory of value that you are relying upon to peddle this false statement has no merit.
    3
  33. Not only that but we have evidence in the form of dead weight loss and empirical research by Romer and Romer to back it up. The economic calculation problem is a real issue.

  34.  @Rob-fx2dw he knows this but it’s his job to lie for a living. Mappin here spams comments hundreds of times per day with lies like these.
    3
  35. Nah Wolff is the fool
    3
  36.  @SwedishDrunkard5963  TIK isn’t wrong. He is right
    3
  37.  @Sandcrackattack  see the Tom Woods Show on Einstein. Two episodes tearing apart his essay
    3
  38.  @michaelmappin1830  because it isn’t. Socialism is.
    3
  39. Nope he actually brought facts while Wolff brought “alternative facts.”
    3
  40. Nonsense. Wealth is not “hoarded” and tax cuts are not something to “fund” because it is people keeping more of their own money. Government debt is a result of overspending, not under taxing.
    3
  41. No he isn’t. His claims about wages and productivity are complete lies.
    3
  42.  @missk1697  yeah because it turns out that people doing things that they really enjoy in the US such as driving cars and eating junk food can have an impact on the average life expectancy. Good way to dunk on socialism there
    3
  43. Better than a Marxist
    3
  44.  @davidsmith5917  nope that’s just you
    3
  45. Because “that’s not real socialism” except when it is convenient for his argument
    3
  46. He is a lying grifter
    3
  47. Agreed
    3
  48.  @michaelmappin1830 Laffer actually gave data while Wolff got caught lying. I also caught you lying and you never dealt with the data on real wages so why do you keep coming back to spew more idiocy? You have no interest in facts like Wolff.

  49. Michael Mappin is a lying Marxist shill who spams propaganda for a living. He's so dumb that he thinks that all wealth is produced by labor. He literally blamed capitalism for the Great Leap Forward under communist China. He's been spamming this comments section and practically every other Richard Wolff video comment section for years with outright lies and propaganda, and he does not care about truth. He'll likely be spamming the same lies today in reply to top level comments here within hours. He's also responded to this comment with insults and fabricated quotes I did not say (not any actual argument) and hasn't even attempted to read the sources listed or provide any of his own because he knows he's lying. Plus he admitted that he doesn't care about the data. Here are a list of just some of his other lies: 1. He claimed that production has increased more than incomes. He has been repeatedly shown that this is wrong. (source 1 see "debunking the productivity-pay gap") (source 2 see "Heritage productivity and compensation") (source 3 see Reddit thread on bad economics titled "in EPI we trust") 2. He claimed that wages haven't kept up with inflation. This is in his copy pasted shill paragraph claiming that "capitalism erodes purchasing power" which was shown and explained to him numerous times to be wrong. This too has been cited numerous times and he keeps lying even after being given the source proving him wrong. (source 4 see "Econlib real wage myth") (source 5 see "FRED real compensation") 3. He claimed that people are working more hours over time. That was debunked and he kept claiming it with the source right in front of him. The facts show that people are working fewer hours over time as well. He's still refusing to acknowledge how this benefit has been passed along to workers and claiming that workers don't see any benefits from labor saving technology, which is outright false on its face. (source 6 see Wikipedia article on "working hours" particularly in the US) (source 7 see Our World in Data article on working hours) 4. He claimed that the Nazis weren't socialists. (source 8 see Eric July (Youngrippa59) video on YT for "Nazis were socialists" (source 9 see Mises article on "yes the Nazis were socialists") (source 10 see TIK video on YT for Hiter's socialism) 5. He claimed that Joe Biden was on the right wing. (source 11 see wikipedia article on "political positions of Joe Biden") (source 12 see executive orders from Joe Biden) 6. He claims that workers aren't paid the "full value of their labor." (source 13 see wikipedia article on "exploitation of labor" in the "critique and rejection" section which lists multiple economic references showing how the field rejects the labor theory of value) Now he's also engaged in lying about what others say and post to try to smear them. Instead of actually bringing an argument based on factual information, he just insults and smears. This is what Marxists do. They constantly lie and project because they know that their entire worldview is garbage. This is a grown man that acts like a child. He is not capable of a good faith debate.
