Imagine not being capitalist when the strongest nation on earth with the highest GDP is Capitalist

2019-08-10 06:28:50 UTC  

Lol see I had the capitalist tag before too but it was confusing people so I had to get rid of it. I think unbridled capitalism is a recipe for disaster. But there parts of capitalism that are good to have, I think

2019-08-10 06:29:49 UTC  

I think some amount of capitalism is all but necessary - so it should be a given

2019-08-10 06:29:59 UTC  

ive studied a dozen different models of socialism, and theres only one that i found compelling

2019-08-10 06:30:09 UTC  

the Leland Stauber proposal

2019-08-10 06:30:21 UTC  

everything else has obvious, fatal flaws

2019-08-10 06:30:34 UTC  

I’ve found everything but capitalism to have fatal flaws

2019-08-10 06:30:47 UTC  

Granted I don’t burry myself in economic systems

2019-08-10 06:30:54 UTC  

i do rip

2019-08-10 06:31:01 UTC  

And capitalism is by no means perfect

2019-08-10 06:31:10 UTC  

What

2019-08-10 06:31:13 UTC  

But it’s clearly doing notably better than everything else

2019-08-10 06:31:21 UTC  

hardly anything else has been tried

2019-08-10 06:31:28 UTC  

Yeah

2019-08-10 06:31:30 UTC  

marxist leninism got a very good sample

2019-08-10 06:31:34 UTC  

but thats undeniably shit

2019-08-10 06:31:56 UTC  

market socialism was only tried in one country ever, and it was a self management version which has fatal flaws

2019-08-10 06:32:19 UTC  

Hardly anything else has been tried because the market bartering systems are kind of a central aspect of most societies

2019-08-10 06:32:21 UTC  

I don’t see the point of changing from capitalism

2019-08-10 06:32:36 UTC  

We built the strongest nation on earth with it so why risk it???

2019-08-10 06:32:44 UTC  

strong for whom dude

2019-08-10 06:32:48 UTC  

not for most people

2019-08-10 06:32:48 UTC  

Your ideology is gross

2019-08-10 06:33:01 UTC  

the median wage in america is 30k

2019-08-10 06:33:05 UTC  

Highest GDP, Strongest Military

2019-08-10 06:33:14 UTC  

those are two very warped metrics to use

2019-08-10 06:33:24 UTC  

the economy should serve the people

2019-08-10 06:33:28 UTC  

not the other way around

2019-08-10 06:33:41 UTC  

That’s how you run out of country

2019-08-10 06:34:04 UTC  

And also, the average income of American citizens was nearly double that in 2017

2019-08-10 06:34:11 UTC  

LMAO what

2019-08-10 06:34:23 UTC  

are you saying wages DOUBLED in 2 years?

2019-08-10 06:34:28 UTC  

Yes

2019-08-10 06:34:32 UTC  

Because of trump

2019-08-10 06:34:37 UTC  

🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷

2019-08-10 06:34:37 UTC  

HAHAHAHA

2019-08-10 06:34:43 UTC  

And in the first quarter of 2019 that wage has been maintained

2019-08-10 06:34:47 UTC  

So idk what u mean

2019-08-10 06:34:54 UTC  

wages are up 3.1% in the last 12 months buddy

2019-08-10 06:35:12 UTC  

Without government oversight and regulation, a society based purely on unregulated capitalism is a disaster

2019-08-10 06:35:20 UTC  

96.2% of statistics are made up on the spot
