RE: Good News: Capitalism Cannot Be Saved

in #philosophy6 years ago (edited)

You have a very weird and wrong definition of capitalism

Capitalism is actually free trade along with basic property rights. The right to your life, the right to the fruits of your labor, and the right to trade or gift whatever you own.

Capitalism has brought most people out of subsistence living. Before capitalism, 99.5% of people lived in abject poverty. Now less than 10% do. Famines and plagues have been wiped off the earth in spite of the fact that there is ten times the population today.
