the rapid expansion in the gilded age in USA

was close to free market capitalism

Materialism, and the destruction of the bonds of kinship

Yeah no thats bs

And it was shit

No it wasn't

us changed from a 3rd world country

to a 1st world

Monopoly.

attracting immigrants from all over

Monopolies don't exist

naturally

The state intervenes and causes them

I like capitalism, but only if it doesn't absolutely murder our morals, bonds of kinship, and doesn't reduce us to materialism

Then you don't like capitalism

Sure

as all those problems you listed are nothing issues

imo, I'd have a free market economy, but threaten regulations if they try doing anything sketchy, if they ignore the warnings, completely nationalize them to make an example of them

There would be no need

the free market is best at allocating resources

And imprison owners of corporations if they intentionally harm the populous for profit

For life

Capitalism leads to degeneracy

theres always private police

But I'm not arguing that

I'm saying Nazi Germany was a form of socialism

due to the over state intervention

which is socialist

Yes, Nazis were more socialists

thank you

Execute anyone who tricks the people for profits tbh

It was not because of state control as much as because they tried to prevent owners from gaining profits off corporations in variety of ways

Morals and values should take priority over shekels and capitalism

they won't trick

because the consumers will go to another company

and they'll make a loss

Not always

@Draco It's mostly because of state control

Not when they do discreetly

As is often the case

Boycotts are seldom seen
