I think it's because the people who haven't succeeded at something want to drag everyone down with them, rather than focusing on improving and succeeding at something. reportquote Well yeah - they've also been told that the system is completely against them due to power structures that they cannot control. Like...yeah thats partially true. But nature itself is against us all...its not just social structures. So they get all resentful and they don't care about the poor, they just hate the rich Exactly. What I find to be one of the most ironic parts is that capitalism has done more to improve the standard of living for the poor than any other system, including socialism.

The Admiral 11/16/17 7:29:25 PM #104:	The problem with an economy that doesn't use money is that the shit work still needs to get done. If no one wants to voluntarily clean toilets for a living in this moneyless economy, eventually the government decides for you who will do it. And if you refuse, the government sends you to a gulag or gets rid of you, since you're not contributing to the state's production. This is exactly why literally every Communist country necessarily becomes authoritarian; there is no other way to get people to do what is needed to sustain society without the profit motive. This myth that the chronically unemployed losers on this board who support Communism have that they can just continue sitting at home all day and get a check courtesy of money seized from rich people is a fucking joke. In reality, they'd just get a bullet in the head for their zero contribution to society. --- - The Admiral <cite>The Admiral posted [p:890529988] in Lmao when ...

How are we doing in terms of resources? This has nothing to do with capitalism by the way. Capitalism means efficient allocation of limited resources.

Cool. By the time we actually make the transition to solar, we'll be beyond the point of no return anyway. We could have made that transition if it were left to capitalism. However, since the stated goal of climate alarmists has been global redistribution of wealth, we basically have no choice but to give China our money so they can pollute the planet at a faster rate to make us our solar panels because (ironically enough) our environmental protection laws make it prohibitively expensive to produce solar panels in America, which is why almost every one of those companies (heavily subsidized by the US Government) failed and got sold to Chinese business interests. --- 'It's okay that those gangbangers stole all my personal belongings and cash at gunpoint, cuz they're building a rec center!' - OneTimeBen <cite>darkjedilink posted [p:890543154] in Lmao when ...
