Progressive Propaganda: The Capitalism Edition

[P@triot]

The left works very hard to create a narrative that capitalism is "evil" or "immoral" despite the fact that it has done more to raise the standard of living for all of mankind in 100 years than every system ever combined did in thousands and thousands of years.

And once again we see corporations surrendering profits to help people when they are in need (as they always do). Home Depot stopped selling masks to the public and instead, is donating them to front-line healthcare workers in need.

Microsoft made Teams free so that organizations across the world could continue operations. More indisputable proof that all the left does is push pure propaganda.

Making a profit is not immoral.

Capitalism's boom and bust cycles could be considered immoral and unethical even if, fully capital.

A system cannot be “immoral”, numbskull.

Only people can be immoral. Not animals. Not systems. Not inanimate objects.

Making a profit is not immoral.

Making a statement that stupid is immoral.

Try again?

Doh! My bad! I read that as “making a profit is immoral”. Missed the “not”. So sorry.

The low IQ loser here just used a noun as a verb.

The left doesn't even understand basic economics...

One reader called me “a complete moron” for saying that. He argues that “more money in the richest hands means money sitting in the bank doing nothing.”

But that’s an ignorant view of banks. Because banks loan that money out, they enable other people to buy homes, start new businesses and get educated.

Capitalism has single-handedly raised mankind out of poverty. Those in "poverty" in the United States live infinitely better than those in socialist or totalitarian nations and infinitely better than anyone did hundreds of years ago (including the "wealthy elite").

Well would you look at that! Microsoft allowing developers to keep 100% of their profits (at the expense of Microsoft, who has to sink resources into keep their app store up and running). Not by the coercion of government but through the liberty of the free market - which produces wealth and innovation every time.

Microsoft will let devs keep every penny their Windows app makes — unless it’s a game

A major new policy has a big caveat.

Does capitalism keep two-thirds of humanity in poverty, or not? If not, why is housing unaffordable for millions across the planet? How arrogant is the arrogance that defines a Homo sapiens according to housing type? Moving the goalposts is a key schizoid concept to consider here, because capitalism has an intimate relationship to the schizophrenic process.

Management that relied on the metrics provided by Capitalism is what did it. Public policies that provide automatic stabilization of our economy could have done much better by now.

One would think the right and the left could come together on this issue. However, Democrats love "corporate welfare" because they love socialism.

They only feign "outrage" so they can wail against capitalism (when this isn't even capitalism)

Why Is There So Little Outrage at All of the Corporate Welfare?

Government subsidies often go to big companies with lawyers and lobbyists, says a new documentary, “Corporate Welfare: Where’s the Outrage?"
