I think dr wolff was talking about this but I might be off base that there is a crisis of capitalism as wealth is concentrated the goods produced pile up as the market for those goods shrink, am I on the mark or talking out of my ass?
I can just feel the iq of lemon eminating out of my screen
top cat shush
Sorry
This was from another chat
well you do have a point there quis
howdy top cat I am new here I am a old man but babbie leftist coming here to learn from others
however that wouldn't really happen
supply and demand would take care of that
Dr. Richard D. Wolff has talked about it a number of times. His "Economic Update" videos and podcasts are very good.
the crisis of capitalism i do not believe is really a crisis
yeah I listen to them weekly
I love his stuff very easy to access and in plain language
doesn't scare normal folks away by draping himself in the hammer and sickle
Yeah, he's also quite witty and engaging.
there has been isolated incidents of course of capitalism failing like so, but overall supply and demand, competition and the invisible hand of the free market keeps itself stable
Lenin is also one of his influences, which is dope.
>invisible hand
Lol
yeah what about it
I think capitalism will lead us to ruin if relentless pursuit if profit is put before all else I am afraid we are going to end up the the easter islanders chopping down the last tree
no
*like the
government intervention in capitalism will lead to our downfall
every excuse they get, they ram more government power
the billionaire class loves it
The poor always pay if they tax the rich
what happened to us blaming the billionaires? it's partly their fault for our mess
what does capitalism do to the poor who need things like antibiotics but it is not profitable to help them?
if you're poor and work hard, the idea is that you'll get to live a healthy life
however, this is not the case in the modern world
Capitalism invented charity
because of corporatist, corrupt scumbag politicians
the fascists of the modern day
The best form of free healthcare
>not real capitalism its corporatism
all I am saying if profit is the only motivation it will leave many lacking basic necessities because the labor they can sell is not worth enough to buy the goods and services they need
promising bailouts to the banks
Do you even know what corporatism is you dumbass
Look it up
tell me what corporatism is
