Capitalism works great. You just need to put in a few guard rails and be willing to step in and fix she once in a while.
B...But that's SOCIALISM!
Don't get me wrong, I think the tankies and communist are as crazy as the trumpets. A pragmatic center voting base is dead.
As soon as you get even slightly specific about the guard rails, people start moaning.
We just need people to quit bitching about the guardrails
Lemmy has been quite a shock on that front. All these people bitching about capitalism using a machine only capitalism could have provided.
And yes, every excess of the system can be dialed in without trashing the whole thing.

Unfortunately, capitalism requires an underclass of oppressed laborers in order to function. Or at least, every capitalism ever has had one. Maybe it could work without it? We'll probably never know though.
You should go back to Reddit, and enjoy your capitalist world.

Couldn't help yourself even on an unpopular comment thread. I don't like your opinion so get out 🤣
I could’ve not, I just chose to. So, this was helping myself.

You must be doing something right, capitalist cowboy pigdog! Free ticket to Lenin's tomb for you. His soul may be in Hell, but his corpse is number one tourist destination!
