Capitalism

Ever tried living under communism?

Watch "Moscow on the Hudson" to get a comparative clue.

Love is the answer, not greed.

Love is the answer, not greed.

The two are not mutually exclusive so no it is not the answer

 

[Stryder50]

Love is the answer, not greed.

So you have given all that you own to others and expect some others to care for you ???

Or are you willing to have nothing and need nothing ???

I just "Love" people who have stupid cliche' beliefs and expect others to take care of them. ....

I never sought much money. Getting by each day is what counts. Its really sad many cannot and live on the streets because some greedy filled hearts have to have billions.

Like most everything you post on this subject;
Total Bullshit!

You haven't a clue on economics nor how it works.

Most of those living on the streets have either a substance, alcohol and/or drugs, abuse problem; and/or lack desire, ability, or minimum knowledge to work in a way to earn enough to get off the streets.

If you had a brain and a heart you would seek/earn VERY much money so you could give most of it away to those homeless you fake caring about.

Like most useless jerkwads you think you are so bright pointing out half the obvious and moaning over what isn't true; yet lack the gumption and balls to do something positive towards the negative that gets your panties in a twist.

You are one of those "greedy filled hearts" who won't do anything positive to help those you fake concern over, while thinking you are so noble for barely supporting yourself.

Makes you a phony, among other non-positive things.

Many don't want to work for the paltry pay they receive and can't make ends meet, while putting their heart into their job while another gets 5000 x as much for putting his heart into his job, because without the little guy who gets nothing the big guys would get nothing. Yes many who have to look at this sick system are fed up to the core and turn to abuses such as alcohol or drugs.
Tell us all does one who runs up and down a basketball court deserve 50-60 million $$ a year, while the president of the USA gets 450,000 a year with Nuclear bombs under his authority? This system is sick, sickening.

It is the only system in the entirety of mankind that ended the mass grinding poverty that always-always-always existed prior to it's use.
Every single other form of economic systems has always-always-always resulted in back breaking poverty for the masses, and glorious living for a very-very small few.

Grow up.

If those "many" are like you, they are overpaid for what little they are worth.

I doubt most are putting their "heart" into their job.

If you actually knew history and economics you'd know that all other systems in the past, and present were far worse and less equitable.
There have been and still are many systems that are far more "sick" than this one.

Clue, why do so many flock here and cross into our country illegally if we are so much sicker than any others, such as where they came from ???

Without the "big guy" providing the job for the "little guy", the "little guy" is back to scratching a bare existence from the dirt as a peasant.

The few "little guy" with brains and gumption will get into business for themselves and say good bye to the "big guy".

The dude running up and down the basketball court must be worth the pay, if someone is willing to pay it to him.

As for the POTUS, in the case of groper and molester Joe Biden, he is paid about $445,000 more than he is worth.

YOU are more "sick, sickening" than "This system". Try emigrating to 90+% of the other nations/systems on this planet and see how better they are. I'll wager they find you as worthless a waste of human skin as you've been found to be here.

The main reason is we allow them to work here where other countries have much tighter restrictions on people coming into the country to work.

We allow it to take advantage of cheaper labor.

It's funny how many like yourself will complain that workers are paid too much and then pretend to care about those coming to this country to work for sub wages.

And then when the "big guy" fails he runs to the government and demands the government force the "little guy" bail him out.

How do you explain the massive and never ending problrm of wealthy and super wealthy celebrities turning to drugs and alcohol? Statistically they are more likely to abuse drugs and alcohol than low income people.

Clearly wealth or poverty is not a huge deciding factor in addiction.

Yes the star ball player deserves more. He makes many times more than what he makes for his employer. The president makes no money for his employers.

You call it sick I call it beautiful

Those who live on the streets do so because of their own problems most of which are self created.

A person with billions has nothing to do with their condition.

Americans owe at least $220 billion in medical debt which is a prime contributor to US bankruptcies that often result in homelessness.
2023 medical debt statistics

Individual billionaires whose fortunes stem from that medical debt have a great deal to do with their victims' homelessness.

Your error, under theocracy when Israel stood strong for Gods will, it worked in perfection. They fell over and over.

The only way to hurt economic parasites is to take what they value most: their money.

Billionaire Sackler Family Members Could Face Fresh Lawsuits After Purdue Opioid Settlement Falls Apart

"Forbes values the Sackler family’s net worth at $5.2 billion as of February, based on an estimated $11.2 billion in liquid assets minus the $6 billion they were set to pay in the bankruptcy settlement.

"Only the members of the Sackler family descended from the brothers Mortimer and Raymond Sackler—who previously led Purdue Pharma and are now both deceased—are involved with the opioid litigation and bankruptcy proceedings."

They need to be in prison.

Not a good argument. The article notes how people forgo treatment over the costs.

I was reading a story yesterday about a woman who had a tubal ligation. When doing the procedure the surgeon found some endometriosis. He took a few minutes to cauterize it. The hospital then tried to charge her for two completely seperate operations. Her insurance refused to pay and she refused to pay. She said she would pay an additional charge but wouldn't pay for a completely seperate operation.

Luckily so far a judge has refused the collection agencies attempts to collect the amount due.

Now the argument is the fact that despite Obamacare and the Democrats having the White House many of the years after it passed, we still have people faced with stuff like this and ever rising costs.

Neither party actually wants to really address the cost side.

I am enjoying capitalism. Soaking in a real hot tub of water in a cheap motel.

I cant do this in connecticut, the democrats turned off the hot water
