Activist U2’s Bono admits the way out of poverty is entrepreneurial capitalism

[ColonelAngus]

Lefties, you lost one of your stars.

He can admit the truth. Communism does not work. Capitalism does.

Now call out Bono for being a TRUMPSTER!

 

[Moonglow]

Working by the hour is slow death.

Bono was always full of shit making believe he wasn’t for Capitalism.

It took that overly pretentious and smug arrogant fool long enough to realize how the world actually works, but better late than never. Now if he could just once manage to not wear his color tinted glasses for just 60 seconds I might not consider him such a douche.

Where is that happening? Do you think creating something like solar energy is going to be ran by the government? If not, how is that Communism?

The 62 year old hypocrite is worth about half a Billion dollars. When did he decide that capitalism wasn't too bad?
