Private property is a right of individual to manage things he owns in a way he considers the most beneficial
@Advocatus Diaboli ok, so then by your definition of capitalism there is no system in the world that is capitalistic. Because every system has **some** public ownership
again, if your definition of capitalism is that there just **is** private ownership at all, then I do not accept your definition and think it is ludicrous
Please put in mind that personal property =/= private property
Lol wtf
@Advocatus Diaboli and there is public property in every system too, if you want me to abide by your differentiation
natural monopolies, for instance
national railways
fucking streetlights
and roads
sewage systems
Teddy Roosevelt will always be one of my favorite presidents
If there's a single corporation, no matter how small it is, and it's not run by the state nor it's a cooperative, then it's capitalism
Because the only purpose of private property is making profit
What do you mean by private property
@Advocatus Diaboli like I said, that is not capitalism
What is the purpose of profit though?
that's an absolutist take i've never heard of
that is your view of capitalism
it's a very uneducated and broad view
Is it profit to fund something, or profit because you just want to be rich?
@Advocatus Diaboli answer me
What is private property to you
Capitalism exists on a spectrum.
@GucciToiletSalesman Scroll up a bit, there's my answer
K
Wait
Capitalism is not a political ideology, it's an economic system
By your definition every system EVER has been capitalistic
So is hunting grounds considered for profit?
What
there has never been a system where a man did not make something and sell it to someone for profit.
Because most hunting grounds are either state owned or private property
and there never will be one
USSR
wrong
1929-1956
you dont think there were people who created objects and sold them?
you think that was outside the realm of possibility?
they existed
