Hi all,

I’m seeing a lot of hate for capitalism here, and I’m wondering why that is and what the rationale behind it is. I’m pretty pro-capitalism myself, so I want to see the logic on the other side of the fence.

If this isn’t the right forum for a political/economic discussion-- I’m happy to take this somewhere else.

Cheers!

    All systems require a check on greed and something that pulls things back to balanced. What we have (in the US) right now isn’t it.

    SCOTUS has not helped in the least.

    We need incentives for participation because “the feels” isn’t enough to motivate most to work all that much. But we need taxes and laws to keep things from skewing like they have.
