Throw me your arguments against capitalism. Keep it on topic as well.

So? It's a step up from the CIA starting a coup and installing a sociopathic dictator.

Countries being globalised aren't getting poorer, the fact the asian tigers were being exploited is innocuous when you compared North Korea with South Korea or Vietnam with Taiwan, they would have been exploited anyway, just by a ruling class with a totally different set of behaviour. North Korea has a ruling class that just wants to stay in power. South Korea has a ruling class that wants to turn the country into a 1st world country, live in opulent splendor in that country and be considered intelligent entrepeneurs who rebuilt the country.

This is the difference between idealists and realists, idealists want to pretend they have found a way to eliminate corruption, realists accept it exists, accept they are fallible and instead get their priorities straight and realize what's important is not some pointless revolution that results in years of bloody civil war only to replace one tyrant with another but to get fathers in the factories so they can feed their kids.

Actually, private companies can buy your land, but they can't force you off. The government unconstitutionally does that.
At the behest of corporations. It all boils down to who really controls who, faceless corporations controlling faceless bureaucrats, or faceless bureaucrats controlling faceless corporations? Or do they see themselves as equals and simply don't give a fuck and just do things on a whim under the name of "profits", "progress", whatever the term, and just pat themselves on the back at the end of the day?
