I’m new to this platform and can’t tell if I already replied to this or not.

I totally understand and agree with your point. In case I already replied to this I’ll just give my short answer.

If I could snap my finger and magically make a perfect capitalist system (or socialist for that matter) no corruption or greed. Starting absolutely fresh and right with the perfect principles in place for the system… And also all of us people started fresh, well rested, well fed, thinking clearly…

I think people would still buy the cheapest chocolate and ignore the slaves, they’d still shop at Walmart, and I’d still book the cheap airline ticket and complain I have no leg room, and a handful of super rich elites would quickly regain literally all the power.

You absolutely nailed it on the head with everything thing you said, that’s exactly why I don’t call out system true capitalism. I also agree the lives we are forced to live prevent us from having time to sort this stuff out.

I just don’t think we’d be less lazy (myself included) even if we did have the time and energy. I feel the same problem in both systems.

1)good idea

2. revaluation

3. get lazy

4. back to essentially where we started.

I know! I told the Team lead id be in at 2. That’s when I was scheduled and that’s when I’m coming in. It’s not my fault Becky got septic gonorrhea again. I’m going to sell my drones, and then I’ll be there at my SCHEDULED time. Don’t give me any of that “team player” bullshit either. All that “team playin” you managers have been doing is why everyone keeps getting septic gonorrhoea. So maybe focus more on your z-pack and get off of my back. How bout that.

If you need a drone tho I got you 10 a piece. Price break at 20. Brand new. Predator anti-personal. Can’t resell them to Ukraine tho. I’m not pro Russia I just got beef with Zelensky. Owe him some money, don’t want him to know I’m out here hustlin. Hit me up.

Edit: if you do want a drone maybe rub some of those z-pack anti bios on the bills tho. Don’t need any of the Becky shit. I just got back with my baby momma you know and all she asked is "no more girls, no more drones, no more polyhedron with a surface areas greater than 30^2 centimeters on the larger faces " so we got keep this real down low, you feel me. You know how hard it was to get my kid back bro, so I got to keep this super light, no joke.

Funny side note I think the problem with both systems is lazy people not doing what they should.

I won’t go over the example for how lazy people could effect socialism because I’m sure you’ve heard it a million times before.

I skip straight to capitalism.

People don’t vote with their dollar like they should. Everyone hates Walmart, they still shop at Walmart. Everyone hates child slavery, they still buy chocolate. Women want real pockets in their clothing, they still buy clothing that does not have pockets.

I’m lazy too in that way. I don’t shop at Walmart, and I don’t really like chocolate… But I hate how shitty airlines are… When I fly tho, I buy the cheapest ticket on the cheapest airline. Every single time.

That’s the problem with capitalism. I’m lazy, we’re all lazy.

Yes someone explain my poor phrasing. They even mentioned the word I mentioned but I forget.

I’m not the capitalist version of a tanky.

I believe the concept of capitalism could work, and I believe it would work better than socialism. Another common ground I have with socialist is that I understand the examples of my preferred… Arrangement of society have been corrupted and not run under the ideas they claim.

That’s what I mean by common ground and that’s where I sympathize. I wouldn’t want someone pointing at trump and saying “that’s capitalism!” And I would never point at Kim jun un and say “that’s socialism”

I also understand the “ideal, pure, perfect implementation” of either idea probably isn’t possible.

I lean more to capitalism.

That’s what I meant when I said “I’m a capitalist” I misspoke.

Pointing out I can disagree with someone’s ideas and still recognize when they are being very reasonable.

capitalists that are less so.

Ah the ol’ “you’re stupid” rebuttal. Works every time. Automatic win in every debate lol

I’m a capitalist. The person you are responding to sounded very reasonable.

“the US doesn’t like”

That’s very true. The us does not like north Korea. That isn’t saying north Korea is good. It’s just saying there are motives at play to make north Korea look as bad as possible.

If I said Jeffrey Epstein was a cannibal, you can say “no he wasn’t” without thinking he was a good person.

As long as you don’t ask any questions… I got you. Meet me beside the dumpster at wendys. I prefer to be paid directly in drugs but cash app is fine to.

Can confirm. Every now and then one my cashiers will call me over and be like “this old woman handed a signed piece of paper instead of money?”

It’s also funny to show them the ol’ shotgun credit card imprinter “you put the card there and the paper here kachunk and in a few weeks wed find out if they actually had the money at all!”

How the hell did that system work for soo long lol

For fifty bucks I’ll tell you exactly how to make money scamming people.

“does that actually work”

“No it never does… But it might work for us”

Don’t forget they did that several times!
