Hi all,

I’m seeing a lot of hate for capitalism here, and I’m wondering why that is and what the rationale behind it is. I’m pretty pro-capitalism myself, so I want to see the logic on the other side of the fence.

If this isn’t the right forum for a political/economic discussion-- I’m happy to take this somewhere else.

Cheers!

    I like buying shit as much as the next person, I also don’t think endless growth for shareholders is a laudable goal and is likely dangerous. I also don’t think that essential services should be run for profit, but then I am from a country with proper government health care. Government should set a baseline, not a company.

    But as I said, I still like buying shit
