So you saying you are all for capitalism, except for all the ways Capitalism is ACTUALLY Practiced? Got it.
I don't think you've been reading with the intent to understand, but instead with the intent to reply and defend. That is shallow. The person with whom you've been debating has laid out a clear position, and you don't seem to get it.
Capitalism is not the problem. Capitalism has raised the standard of living for ALL HUMANS on earth, unlike anything else, unlike all the alternatives.
No, I understand Boss perfectly. Boss is one of those fuckheads who listens to Hate Radio all day and think that some day, little Billy, if he worships greed enough and hates government, the Greed Fairy will flutter down and make him rich.
And I was like that for years. Until I got my fill of working for "Capitalists", who usually made things worse because of their shortsighted greed.
After 2008, Capitalism is done. Time for something better.
You've yet to put up a cogent argument against his position.
And that you failed in corporate American does not equate to the necessity of the rest of us drowning is socialistic mire and misery and failure.
Your failure should not impact my family. Is that what you advocate? That I succumb to the failed philosophy of something-other-than-a-free-market?
