We are being forced to live by more and more laws and regulations, many of these costing the middle class and lower a fortune. Instead of the government figuring out ways to make insurance a non-profit organization (or find a better system), the government makes more laws and more punishments against those without insurance, forcing people to pay for a money draining safety net to catch people only 3 feet from the ground.
What new laws and regulations? The government has been bailing out banks and companies.
I think people should be allowed to grow rich, but not through exploiting people through laws.
Bill Gates, he became rich because he gave the people Microsoft. People enjoyed Microsoft, Bill Gates took advantage of what the people wanted. However, people who profit off credit cards (pure scams), insurance (required rip offs), and other forms of cons and control are the people I hate.
Sure, Bill Gates made a huge contribution, but enough to earn him $60 billion dollars?
He created something that which society under the modern age cannot live off of. Yet he still profits off people's needs.
And yes credit cards have recently been more exploitative. Apparently, they started people for bs reasons and the US government is putting a law into effect to stop it.
This has worked for and against people in both capitalist systems and non-capitalist systems.
Thats true, I didn't mean to make that a direct argument. I was just explaining why the masses are quite ignorant.
The reason people get rich is because the government is too big and because it focuses on controlling the people rather than controlling companies to make sure they aren't screwing everybody over.
I don't understand this. Without the government, the nature of capitalism would be free to rule.
The capitalists would be able to exploit freely without minimum wage and without regulation. The nature of capitalism is inequality. For the rich to get richer, the poor must get poorer.
Wealth is not created out of thin air. Those who get wealthy do in through exploiting the poorer.
You cannot tell me Bill Gates did the labor required to earn $60 billion.
For someone whose being paid $30 an hour (fairly modest), they would have to do 2 million hours of work to get to where Bill Gates is at.
Ok, firstly Americans don't deserve to be hungry, we're far to rich,
Being rich and deserving to be hungry have no relation.
You point a finger at capitalism, is it wrong, yes, so is every other form of rule. If you want to point a finger at everything that is wrong then I only warn you to take time to eat and sleep, because you will be doing it for the rest of your life. Those who have children they can not feed are wrong in there ways, rich people are wrong, most of the world is wrong.
What? What do you mean by "so is every other form of rule"?
This was no argument.
But then that is the world we are in, there is no changing that, or is there, can an individual change the world, yes. can an individual change the world by complaining about it?
Why is there no changing it? Capitalism is not as clear as rain as it would seem.
Have you heard of a revolution?
Well, if you can't get any richer than your neighbor who sits around doing nothing all day, how could you have any goals? Drace, from what your saying your obviously a communist.
*sigh*
Communism is not an ideology which seeks for humanity to have perfect equality.
It is about the workers owning the means of productions, to create a fair and just economic system free of capitalist exploitation.
and ZOMg im a cOmunizt!
You probably haven't met Feudalism yet then.
Well feudalism does not exist in the world on a significant scale.
