I mean, those Popeye's sandwiches are super popular and I've never met a single chicken who likes them.
What a smart*** rebuttal, I love it.I mean, those Popeye's sandwiches are super popular and I've never met a single chicken who likes them.
Throw a few sandwiches in a chicken coup and they’ll all be eaten with the quickness.
so, in this scenario we both accept, are you in the bun or in the coop waiting on Farmer Brown's feeding time?
That's not how it really works.With capitalism bread is at that store waiting on you. Not you waiting in line for bread.
That's not how it really works.
With capitalism, the shopkeeper gets a limited supply of bread and charges the max for it. With laissez-faire capitalism, the ship owner is in the right to ask you a few (or all your eggs) in exchange for just enough bread to keep you alive today. Can you make enough eggs by tomorrow to feed yourself? Remember, you're the chicken.
It's cool to mention supply and demand when you're standing tall on the supply side of the equation, but it's dishonest to act as if supply is infinite as soon as you find yourself on the demand side of capitalism.
Companies would never break laws, infringe on people’s rights, or threaten national security!What I said is how exactly how it goes.
No one is limited unless they start breaking laws, infringing on people's rights or threatening national security. Which are things that good business should never be doing. The sky is the limit, that's why there are billionaires.
You're blaming the people here, the system did no wrong. If they take that chance that's on them. The system is in place to give everyone a chance to succeed.Companies would never break laws, infringe on people’s rights, or threaten national security!

Just quit being weak, everyone has opportunity. It's all there for the taking. Dudes who are broke or unhappy with life are the only ones complaining about capitalism.if a system is set up to encourage predatory actions, is it also set up to give everyone a chance to succeed?
It's cool, like many other conservatives, you appreciate socialist policies when they directly and obviously benefit you.
That's not how it really

I'm done here, I've got to go spend some money to perpetuate this.
I’m blaming both.You're blaming the people here, the system did no wrong. If they take that chance that's on them. The system is in place to give everyone a chance to succeed.
You’re relying on a deflection cause you got called out. You’re pretty transparent. I’m sure you have no problem with policies that benefit you, whether they’re capitalist or socialist.nah, its called unilateral disarmament, like many socialist ya practice a do as i say not as i do...
You kinda just sound like you lack empathy.Just quit being weak, everyone has opportunity. It's all there for the taking. Dudes who are broke or unhappy with life are the only ones complaining about capitalism.

Sure, that's why Boeing was able to self-validate its unsafe 737 Max which killed more than 300 people.You're blaming the people here, the system did no wrong. If they take that chance that's on them. The system is in place to give everyone a chance to succeed.
Capitalism, it's the best we got.
It's also lifted +1Billion people out of poverty. Not all bad.
Slavery is at the core of Capitalism and exploitation of Labor continues to be one of it's several deficiencies. My comment was directed towards more recent -specifically latter half of the 20th (Clintonism) and 21st century effects and while the negatives persist, my original comment rings true.I beg your pardon???
Slavery helped finance the Industrial Revolution in England. Plantation owners, shipbuilders, and merchants connected with the slave trade accumulated vast fortunes that established banks and heavy industry in Europe and expanded the reach of capitalism worldwide.
"Where The Empire of Cotton focuses on the material, institutional, and economic foundations and legacies of slavery, state formation, and market expansion, The Empire of Necessity (though describing in detail the labor and environmental processes associated with a range of free and unfree labor) is concerned more with the psychic and imaginative structure of slavery.… Capitalism is, among other things, a massive process of ego formation, the creation of modern selves, the illusion of individual autonomy, the cultivation of distinction and preference, the idea that individuals had their own moral conscience, based on individual reason and virtue. The wealth created by slavery generalized these ideals of self-creation, allowing more and more people, mostly men, to imagine themselves as autonomous and integral beings, with inherent rights and self-interests not subject to the jurisdiction of others. This process of individuation creates a schism between inner and outer, in which self-interest, self-cultivation, and personal moral authority drive a wedge between seeming and being. My point is that slavery was central to capitalist individuation, to the schism between inner and outer, which I believe accounts for the endurance of racism in American society, its quicksilver nature, as well as for its deniability. This is a dinner, not a conference. So I’ll end by cutting to the chase: I think the story at the center of The Empire of Necessity—revolving around the New Englander Amasa Delano’s complete and utter blindness to the social world around him—captures the power of a new kind of racism, based not on theological or philosophical doctrine but rather on the emotional need to measure one’s absolute freedom in inverse relation to another’s absolute slavishness. This was a racism that was born in chattel slavery but didn’t die with chattel slavery, instead evolving into today’s cult of individual supremacy, which, try as it might, can’t seem to shake off its white supremacist roots."
Capitalism and Slavery
Each generation seems condemned to have to prove the obvious anew: slavery created the modern world, and the modern world’s divisions are the product of slavery.www.thenation.com

Society can't advance if there's no incentive for individuals to take risks and reap the rewards that come with it.
That's why socialism doesn't work
Globalization and capitalisms reach within it, has lifted Hundreds of millions out of poverty. There is no denying it.
