Don't see the connection
If you don't take care of yourself, how can you take care of others?
Capitalism is not interested in the wellbeing of others
Free market capitalism reformed capitalism to be less shit
And then the social market economy was invented to make it even less shit
what's your view on spontaneous order
in economics and culture
Well it has been the greatest force to eliminate poverty and unemployment
To quote Ricardo himself: "Beware of capitalists"
The ancap world is not a free market capitalist society it is a capitalist society
It has only eliminated unemployment and poverty after the free market reforms
It has raised billions of people out of poverty in just the past few decades
Capitalism has done more for man than any other economic system
Capitalism places the consumer interests above all, how does that not provide for the well-being of others?
And in the past decades we had: free market or social market rconomies
Capitalism is the best most fair trade system
The only one that makes sense
Britain has a mixed economy
So still applies
You still need moments of redistribution in local areas to resolve problems of the 'Left behinds'
Britain is still capitalist
Africa was taken over by communists
it is
Providing social benefit to citizens doesn't mean you are not a capitalist
I never siad it wasn't capitalist the fuck
I'm saying capitalism as a core ideology was refined into free market which was further refined into the social market
You said Britain was socialist
>social market
>socialist

Kek
Britain was socialist small s in the 70s
we were known as the poor man of europe. It was great.
Anyway I'm not sure if social benefits are a good thing but I'm not appoused to it on pricple
Good that you changed into a free/social market mix
The only fair is laissez faire
