“The economists are all liars.”

2018-12-20 05:02:42 UTC  

I want you to lead them to the truth, then.

2018-12-20 05:03:00 UTC  

Teach us all, exclusive holder of sacred knowledge.

2018-12-20 05:03:06 UTC  

not all of them because all of them dont say thats obviously

2018-12-20 05:03:14 UTC  

its not sacred

2018-12-20 05:03:23 UTC  

its pretty basic that most people who work like capitalism

2018-12-20 05:03:36 UTC  

otherwise they wouldnt work

2018-12-20 05:03:49 UTC  

Uhhh

2018-12-20 05:03:49 UTC  

It must be, because I’ve actually never heard of an economist describing the worker class as the capitalist class.

2018-12-20 05:03:53 UTC  

unless you mean by businesses then thats different

2018-12-20 05:03:58 UTC  

Are you saying we live in a classless society?

2018-12-20 05:04:19 UTC  

Adhering to capitalist ideology does not make you a member of the capitalist class.

2018-12-20 05:04:22 UTC  

Lol

2018-12-20 05:04:26 UTC  

No, cathy newman, Im saying workers are capitalists

2018-12-20 05:04:31 UTC  

there is no capitalist ideology

2018-12-20 05:04:31 UTC  

I work as a slave in a slave society, therefore I like slavery. That's your argument.

2018-12-20 05:04:43 UTC  

not comparable

2018-12-20 05:04:57 UTC  

so its not

2018-12-20 05:05:01 UTC  

that's communism

2018-12-20 05:05:01 UTC  

Working in a capitalist society doesn't make you capitalist

2018-12-20 05:05:09 UTC  

Nor makes you like it

2018-12-20 05:05:24 UTC  

I never said it does

2018-12-20 05:05:29 UTC  

The adherence to values associated with private ownership of the means of production and the maintenance of a system that enforced those property rights are exactly what the ideology of capitalism entails.

2018-12-20 05:05:31 UTC  

it does make you like it though

2018-12-20 05:05:45 UTC  

The flavor doesn’t matter, capitalist ideology means you think private property is fine.

2018-12-20 05:05:59 UTC  

Doesn’t make you the owner of said private property.

2018-12-20 05:06:00 UTC  

Ask John Rockefellers workers if they liked capitalism.

2018-12-20 05:06:07 UTC  

@Nnyef thats not an ideology nor do they believe in completely free markets

2018-12-20 05:06:15 UTC  

the general public prefer regulations

2018-12-20 05:06:25 UTC  
2018-12-20 05:06:33 UTC  

I hope that's a joke

2018-12-20 05:06:45 UTC  

I hope that's the "1%" joke

2018-12-20 05:06:47 UTC  

Regulated capitalism is still capitalism if milk chocolate is still chocolate.

2018-12-20 05:06:56 UTC  

@Headshots the 1% is ever changing

2018-12-20 05:06:59 UTC  

It’s not an ideology to hold a set of beliefs?

2018-12-20 05:07:01 UTC  

Okay.

2018-12-20 05:07:28 UTC  

I meant your "1%" joking. Since you are "99%" serious.

2018-12-20 05:07:40 UTC  

Or was that a shitty joke?

2018-12-20 05:07:50 UTC  

it depends which forms of capitalism, if you mean regulated or not regulated capitalism or all then you're making a pretty stupid argument
