Capitalism

Poverty in the world is caused by a lack of capitalism.  China's economy is only now starting to grow because of AMERICAN corporations stepping in, and giving them jobs, and in general, income of capital.

>>148 What profit-stealing are you talking about? How can you not think that McDonalds is at least a negative force that needs to be changed by consumer outcry? Do you even exist or am I having a nightmare?
McDonalds food isn't cheap in the long run, and by taking a short-term saving on a cheap meal that offers as much nutrition as a ciggarete wrapped in bacon, you are sending yet another positive, encouraging signal to a company that will continue to harm defenseless people, just because you lacked imagination and time. Unless you spend the time saved on fast eating with writing eye-opening books, making art or shooting gay-bashers you have caused a net damage to the world.
The only "ideological" reason I don't approve of McDoanlds is that I believe in personal responsibility (which was, at my latest check, the core of libertarianism and a functioning laissez-faire state) and that it is my duty to tell capitalism what it can and can not do without reverting to crackpottery.
