RE: Capitalism and Evolution

in #steemit7 years ago

It's true: I can perceive that capitalism is oppressive because I am not myopic (like the op) and my world view isn't founded on generalizations that erase others' experiences. Thank you for pointing out that I am more empathetic and better versed in history than you.

Sort:  

If you were better versed in history, you would know that governments and regulations only hinder growth and innovation. Socialism, that's a real killer of the free marketplace.

multinational capitalism robs from certain countries to enrich others it's not growth it's theft. if you're talking about growth what type of ancapitalist are you? just libertarian born on third base but thinks he hit a triple.

I will give you something to read even though I know youve only ever watched youtube videos and thats part of the issue too.

youre well versed in ignoring colonial legacies, aka economics. dont call it history if it isnt that.

I'm from the poorest country in Europe, now living good in America thanks to capitalism. Socialism produces the kinds of conditions we are seeing in former soviet nations. Also, look at shitty Venezuela.

Venezuela has a third world fossil fuel economy, imperialist capitalism produced the conditions in all Latin America countries and has had a major influence on Venezuela's development even not considering its neighbors, which are arguably in a worse 'economic state', but that is neither here nor there, for me, since it would seem to be you, not I, that is interested in preserving this global corporate order.

Saying America is better doesn't contradict anything I said, after all America's economy benefits a ton from the neo-colonial monocultures that keep this countries in political and economic instability and food prices low in terms of USD. American standard of living is high because wages in these countries remain low, at slave labor levels: how is that for some economics? get a clue, dont care where you from: don't play the victim card to justify capitalism.
