Capitalism as the basis for love

OK, this thread is so incredibly short-sighted and WRONG, and you will never get it, so I am not going to waste time arguing with stupid.

what you mean is that you're so brainwashed you don't want to think anymore




Capitalism brings out the worst in people and in society EVERY TIME.

exactly, thats why Red China just switched to save 20 million from en mass liberal starvation. Thats the worst all right!! See how perfectly brainwashed you are?? Now you can understand why people followed Hitler Stalin and Mao. Its often easier to be a brainwashed true believer.

Capitalism brings out the worst in people and in society EVERY TIME. We, the people, need a government to keep corporations in check - a protection of the average citizens - or they would crush us in their chase for the almighty dollar (this is why $$$ as speech will be the death-knell for this country if it is not reformed - our democracy is OVER). What is really bad is that we now have a bought and paid government colluding with industry in this endeavor and it is DESTROYING this country - do you know what a plutocracy is? A system based solely on the pursuit of greed and lucre does and will destroy a society every time. I'll let you do your own research on these "societies" that have collapsed from toxic capitalism, otherwise, I am done. Capitalism and love do NOT belong in the same sentence, as someone said above.

Yes it's kind of pissing me off too for this guy to use love and money as synonyms.
 
Under capitalism you don't get a penny until you first produce or give something that other people want to buy more than anything else in the world. In short, capitalism is based on and teaches giving.

Liberalism or socialism is based not on giving but rather on receiving an entitlement before you give or contribute anything to society.

Ask yourself which system is mostly likely to produce loving people who think of others before themselves.

Socialists would argue that a socialist society is based on the inclusion of everyone, of everyone sharing, of everyone thinking of others, not just for themselves, not allowing others to starve and die because they can't afford it. This, they would argue, is the basis for a compassionate, caring society, not one driven by the profit motive. They would argue that capitalism is based on greed, of ripping people off, of screwing others to make a buck. They would argue that the only thing the capitalist cares about is making money, and love for your fellow man is nonexistent.

Frankly, there are a lot of good arguments for capitalism. The OP isn't one of them.

now that is a problem that liberals exacerbate by always giving government more and more power. Liberalism socialism fascism and crony capitalism go together like peas in a pod- right?

if you love skiing for example or computers( think Jobs and Gates) you will destroy a competitior who is in it for greed. You learn this in business school class one day one.
 
not allowing others to starve and die because they can't afford it.

if economists define of capitalism that way I'll pay you $10,000. Bet?

Someone else recently offered a ten grand bet and you are apparently as superficial and greed oriented as this guy.

a liberal changes the subject when he has no answer and assumes no one will notice

In 1935 we exchanged Capitalism for the welfare/warfare state. Our neighbors owe us a living.

Long Live Karl Marx, Long Live Parasitism

Yes our liberals spied for Stalin because they were Marxist.

What happens when people feel entitled today is that they feel more entitled tomorrow. What happens when liberal politicians notice they can buy votes with entitlements today is that they notice they can buy more votes with more entitlements tomorrow.
 
Why are you making ridiculous $10,000 dollar bets? That's just stupid, do you have any interest in a discussion or are you just looking to screw with people?

The parasites forget that once the welfare warfare state collapses socialism takes over. Under socialism the politicians do not have to cater to anyone , they don't have to please anyone. Everyone will be equally miserable.

It's actually funnier if you carefully read what he said.


then the logic should be easy to confute and yet you are afraid to try?
What does your fear tell you?

I'm not afraid to try anything. I just know an idiotic bet when I see one.

The bet is you'll pay me $10,000 if I can find an economist who defines capitalism that way. That's it. My upside is $10,000. My downside is $0. Your upside is $0. Your downside is $10,000. That's idiotic.

lol

From the beginning of this thread I have been talking about love and you have been talking about money, they are not one and the same, I am assuming you are a grownup and not some child so I should not have to speak to you as one but you are still talking as if the love of money is the root of all freedom. Amazing and terribly sad at the same time.
