Pre-war at least

you can argue whether that could last or not, but at that time it worked pretty well afaik

also, where do people get taught that capitalism is the ability to freely trade stuff?

I don't think any prominent economist has said this

most do

It's a more pure, libertarian form of capitalism

Unrestricted capitalism

@Timo))) can you quote any?

Friedman

can you cite him?

I haven't read him

I recommend this debate highly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3N2sNnGwa4

please go

blocked

shit they noticed nobody was in the internatonal channel

also that video is very lon

g

But yeah highly recommend that debate, or shorter videos on the sidebar if you don't have time

can you cite him though?

I'd highly argue against capitalism being viewed as the free market

He's said many times that the system we have now is not actually capitalism

you'd be wrong, sorry

well then what is it?

what did feudalism get replaced by?

Dude I don't write it down

Capitalism isn't the same as it was in the 20's

the 20s?

The states influence rose over the years

1920

1920?

Yes, the decade of the 1920s

what is wrong?

what does it have to do with anyithng?

Way more capitalistic than what we have now

closer to actual capitalism

but then what do we have now?

corporatism

I don't understand this notion that capitalism is not a mode of production

state involvement in things as welfare and healthcare

It's not fair capitalism if you have top compete with the state

why not just say livertarianism instead of capitalism?
