Capitalism Guarantees Rising Inequality

[DrDoomNGloom]

They didn't earn it.
They inherited or extracted it by bribing corrupt politicians.

You are a ******* scum bag piece of shit, how dare you call some one else *****!!

Your little instigating cock sucking ass has been trying to spread your liberal socialism bull shit for day, and it is getting old.

Every time your ****** ass turns around, say "HI", I will be stuck up your obnoxious ass till you are silenced!!

How do manage to have any dignity left, the forum already made you look like a stupid cock sucking prick??

I see you've meet George, you certainly pegged him quickly...

What a freaking ankle biter, good thing he got no teeth ....
Pathetic excuse for a human being, seems to be denser than a ball bearing and not near as intelligent ....

I am sure me and the little prick will get to know each other quite well if he hangs around!!

I think that this wrongheaded Thomas Piketty idiot needs to take a plane ride to South Africa with Bono.
Bono will straighten him out very quickly.

We have perhaps the most Progressive-MINDED President in a lifetime; maybe in our history. On his watch the richest are getting richer FASTER than under Republicans; and the poor are getting POORER FASTER than they were under Republicans

instead of blaming capitalism; why not admit the Progressive agenda is a failure?

libs are losers who lie to themselves

george phillip is one of the idiots lying to himself

 

[georgephillip]

We must kill the greedy kulaks, eh Obama?

Why would I care, "Genius"?

 

[DrDoomNGloom]

Don't understand sarcasm either, huh .... why am I not surprised??

It just keeps getting better and better, you just keep making your self look stupider and stupider ....

"Inequality is indeed increasing almost everywhere in the postindustrial capitalist world.

"But despite what many on the left think, this is not the result of politics, nor is politics likely to reverse it, for the problem is more deeply rooted and intractable than generally recognized. Inequality is an inevitable product of capitalist activity, and expanding equality of opportunity only increases it -- because some individuals and communities are simply better able than others to exploit the opportunities for development and advancement that capitalism affords.

"Despite what many on the right think, however, this is a problem for everybody, not just those who are doing poorly or those who are ideologically committed to egalitarianism -- because if left unaddressed, rising inequality and economic insecurity can erode social order and generate a populist backlash against the capitalist system at large."

We've discussed this at length, the populace of today does not have the skills to compete in the job markets. There is a intelligence inequality that cannot be over come with legislation.

You failure to grasp even the simplest form of this problem illustrates that some will just be to stupid to learn no matter what ... talk about wasting your time, **** that damn pig we gonna make bacon out of it's ignorant ass ...

You're not surprised because you're brain-dead, *****.

Life guarantees inequality.

Doesn't it?

Some people always do better than others in all human endeavors.

 

[peach174]

Like I said Bono has seen it with his own eyes.



Progressivism is what is causing the large gaps of inequality.
There will always be inequality, Capitalism makes it more equal but never will there be complete equality and it shouldn't
NO system can create equal quality and if it ever did, life would be so boring that you could not stand it.
Everybody in the same house, everybody thinking the same, everybody getting paid the same.
No reason to advance in science or technology.
Why should there be, after all everything and everyone is all equal. That leads to boredom, nothingness and then suicide.

Yup. We must destroy opportunity, to make Commies happy.

Some people always do better than others in all human endeavors.

Finance capitalism guarantees inequality of opportunity which means inherited wealth will continue growing at the expense of productive labor without government intervention on behalf of labor instead of capital.

Life guarantees inequality of opportunity. Anyone who believes any form of government can eliminate that is seriously delusional.

History shows that the descendants of men who made great fortunes almost always dissipate it and fritter it away. Otherwise the Vanderbilts would be the richest people in the country rather than the Waltons.

Your recycled Marxist theories were discredited long ago.

Yup. We must destroy opportunity, to make Commies happy.

Or we could try... " the 15% tax on capital, the 80% tax on high incomes, enforced transparency for all bank transactions, overt use of inflation to redistribute wealth downwards. He calls some of them 'utopian' and he is right. It is easier to imagine capitalism collapsing than the elite consenting to them."

Collapsing capitalism...what could be better?

Your own source said, "expanding equality of opportunity only increases it"

inherited wealth will continue growing at the expense of productive labor

Inherited wealth only grows when it assists productive labor.

Try those ideas in some craphole country.
After their inevitable success, we can implement them in the US, in 2060, maybe.

What's wrong with inequality? All men are created equal, then it's up to themselves to rise above their competition. Not everyone excels to be average

-Geaux

Entering into the social contract and forming society does not necessitate competition at the expense of billions of lives. You are talking about a particular way of arranging society that clearly does not work for the billions of people. The white race and the rich especially choose this route of competition for the poor to graduate into the middle class but few enter the ranks of high society and affluence from rags. No, you must be groomed in order to own so much capital and you must have certain interests, namely, not in competing but in gaining monopolized and oligarchic control over resources with a gigantic military backing up all your global exploits.

Geaux is just another french white property owner who enjoyed telling narratives that may have been true for him but is false for the majority of human beings that have lived. Sounds like a farse unless you derive sustenance from the suffering of those loosing the rigged game. If so, shame.

Capitalism is being grossly misused to describe our economy which is totally ruled, governed, politisized, dictated to, constrained, and sued by a government that has grown large and oppressive.

Capitalism does not exsist.

Histories largest most powerful governments exsist.

Complete control of the economy by government is not capitalism.
