No idea why
You can still rise as a poor person and become a CEO, that's not monarchism
I take tons of medications, used to attend therapy regularly, and still struggle <:haha:583236087137435659>
thats the exact opposite actually
However if you still want me to list them I can
Capitalism likely opposed Monarchies due to them being a system of inheritance and class whilst Captalism is not.
Captalism fundamentally differs from monarchism in that since
Assuming you meant sense, you are correct
Monarchism is most basically defined by a state ruled by a monarch
As for inheritance, why would capitalism oppose it
In the US our president could be considered an elective monarch I guess
What are we talking about guys?
Because it's a class of people getting land, money, and a nice job from their forefathers
No he is not a monarch
Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto
A monarch rules for life, usually has his powers ordained by a religion, and would have more power than a president
Ah okay I get it@bink
Captalism is not nu monarchism, because the majority of people who are wealthy got there through hardwork and dedication, not through their forefather's work and money (unless their lucky I guess)
I don't think they meant that he's literally a monarch
Most people get wealthy through inheritance, and from the social connections and upbringing they would have following their birth.
@bink Unlikely but they can do it
like Bill Gates
Uhhhh
He had a wealthy background
There is a large amount of self made wealthy people
@bink Why do you degrade the amount of self-made wealthy people out there?
There are many of them
I never degraded them, I pointed out that Bill Gates had a wealthy and privileged background. That said, I do not hold any particular respect or admiration for wealthy people.
Bill wasn't that privileged imo
Gail you wanna buy a boat with me? 😤
His mother worked for a bank and his father was a lawyer, his maternal grandfather was a national bank president. He was enrolled in a private school and attended Harvard.
@Missy Yes
His origins is clearly paramount to his success.
He was famous in Computer Engineering, completely different branch of work than being the head of banking.
All they taught him was to manage money at the very most
He was also an exceptional student
Also being in a private school believe me can be worse than public
Yep
I can vouch for that
lol
