  2. The cult of envy began when mass media was used for ADVERTISING. Advertising exists to make us unhappy. It is used to stir up our insecurities (bad breath? body odor?) and desires in order to promote a particular product as the solution. But the solution never works (or not for long). It was only much later that politicians began to use it. Wealth is only tangential as a means to secure the elusive products that will finally succeed to make us happy.

  6.  @ThePeanutButterCup13  The authoritarian regimes were things are "not tolerated" are the socialist/communist ones. Was the former USSR a work? What about Venezuela? How about the CCP with their surveillance state and social-credit scores? Are those fictions produced by capitalism?

  8. And when they tested rats with a choice of cocaine-laced water or sugar-laced water, the rats chose the sugar - it proved to be even more addictive than cocaine. Sugar is "the other white powder" and it is legal to give to children.
