@Omsomething, but not at the EXPENSE of allowing a path to success from those that can acheive

you don't need the state to do that though @Omsomething

ddog oh?

@Omsomething, capitalism has shown that even with inequality, the benefits to the lowest members of society outpace those in socialists system

Do you seriously suggest that nearly everyone doesn't agree that we should have roads and schools? @Omsomething

@Deleted User, u a libertarian?

And what if they can’t find a use for the weakest members?

Ddog‘ as cowboy, he has to be

@Deleted User, it isn't the state or anyone else's job to find a 'use' for anyone?

lolbertarian

Capitalism is good system for now, problem with it is that it causes a lot of people to fail at start of their life.

This is why you have strong free education for all who want it. It is peoples CHOISE to follow it through and put it to use though.

@ManAnimal nope

@Deleted User, great username

Capitalism causes people to fail at the start of life? Big claim, Cotton

big if true

@Deleted User, also libertarian... but again, pragmatic

@Grant , no it doesn't

@Grant, people start out as children

I am a Imperialist

I'm not the one who made that claim, animal

@Grant, ah ok. WHo did?

Grant, you do not consider people not being able to afford schooling, medical care as "not failing"?

@Omsomething

I'm not saying to get rid of the state, just that you don't need it to help people , and it sucks at helping people

Capitalism is good in theory but it can become corrupted like most forms of socialism, and capitalism as it exists is being corrupted. It's not monolithic. Capitalism is definitely better in terms of freedoms and your money goes further.

@Deleted User, the state is like a calculator; garbage in garbage out

If you're earning minimum wage in the united states, you can afford schooling and medical care

A lot of people could be succesfull if given basic schooling and opportunities in life.

Not public or private unis, but colleges

"Minium wage" is capitalism?

No

No

basic schooling <:think_woke:378717098681171988>

Minimum wage is socialism

You cannot earn enough at minimum wage for shelter, food, healthcare, and schooling.

Any economic system used by humans will get exploited

you mean working in a factory

@Omsomething, agreed. ANd no. Minimum wage is not capitalism; neither is Federal Banking

yes

bring back child labor

You'd need two jobs, at least, full-time.
