I have lost all respect polititions I was talking to my city elected offical. just in the last two weeks about Gleen and sara and rush. I told him he needs to to listen to beck and like because I knew this was going to happen again. Sad but I think this has just began. All our elected officals(state&fed) are pawn for the rich. The more we kill each other over issues they help or alone constructed. The less of us there are to deal with the real problem the rich capitalist

No, you're wrong.
It's pretty obvious that poor people are to blame. We must rise up as a nation and have the courage to round up the scum and put them in concentration camps.

Capitalism isn't too bad of a system if properly regulated to protect labor and consumers, but not over-regulated to hurt the business itself.

A free market is possible, but it would only lead to monopolies in almost everything, and newer, small businesses would only be hurt.

As for greed; let them. As long as they're not harming or using their labor like slaves. I don't care.

Domestic free markets are good. International free markets are gay.

Why? This favors the state over the individual. If it's cheaper to roast coffee in Brazil but some plutocrat wants the coffee roasting factory in America and puts up tariffs on roast coffee then coffee will be more expensive for everyone else, everyone will be subsidizing a few ultra-rich crony socialists.

Why do you hate poor people so much?

The trickle down effect of Capitalism doesn't work very well. Sure, there's a correlation between the rich getting richer and the poor/middle class getting richer, but there is a huge gap between them and that gap won't ever close.

The only example I can really give is of the world here: A country like the US will improve, and a country like Zimbabwe will improve with it, but it's miles and miles behind, and since it improves at the same rate or slower there is no difference or an increasing gap.

How is a country like Zimbabwe, where hyperinflation runs rampant, supposed to pull out of its economic struggles?

Obviously, there are exceptions to the rule though, such as India and China.

Zimbabwe isn't capitalist at all, ZANU PF is decidedly marxist.

A better example of a capitalist country primarily engaged in the production of raw materials is Botswana which is right next to Zimbabwe and has a standard of living comparable to Bolivia or Egypt, when compared to the medieval conditions found in most of sub-saharran Africa this is decidedly high.

Most people who list "Mein Kampf" in their list of favorite books are trolling. If you asked any of them "Where was Hitler born" which is discussed in the first chapter, they wouldn't know the answer.

Selfishness is not a virtue.

Also, big business shits all over people when it's completely unchecked. You free market zealots are delusional if you think that the forces of pure capitalism are enough make businesses act ethically.

Aren't most corporations given hand-outs by government, or at the very least its central bank, which was arguably created by banking and corporate interests and made into law by Congress? There was recent news where the Federal Reserve gave a bunch of money to corporations like McDonald's and Harley-Davidson, in a desperate effort to continue propping up this failing economy. That sure as hell ain't free market, if you ask me.

How would you expect them to remember every technical detail? Not everyone has asperger's syndrome.

Off the top of my head hitler was born in austria in a place called branau or something, I'm probably about right even though I'm not exactly right but if you wanted to split hairs you could claim whatever you want.

You have a point but hand outs and regulation are two different things. And an institution becoming "too big to fail" is possible and, hell, probably even more likely without government regulation.

Whoa, whoa. I never said that. You're still equating regulation to bailouts automatically. I'm talking about laws designed to prevent a company from reaching that point in the first place.

Capitalism is economic liberalism. Anything with the word liberalism is faggotry. I believe kings and bishops should control every aspect of society including the market.
