Hi all,

I’m seeing a lot of hate for capitalism here, and I’m wondering why that is and what the rationale behind it is. I’m pretty pro-capitalism myself, so I want to see the logic on the other side of the fence.

If this isn’t the right forum for a political/economic discussion-- I’m happy to take this somewhere else.

Cheers!

    And your second from the last paragraph is the problem. Clearly there aren’t enough people who care who aren’t in a predicament about whether they can feed their families.

    Regardless of what regulations are put in place short of robbing the wealthy, thereby becoming the supposed villains, they’ll always find a way.

    Anyway, one thing I’ve learned over the years is there’s no way to change your opinion or mine, not at a deep rooted level anyway. The minute people caring about capitalism falls below the other side, it’ll probably be outlawed.

      Well this has been a refreshingly calm and civil exchange of opinions.

      10/10 would recommend.
