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!

    The slaves don’t own capital because they are the capital!

    Nowhere in the definition of capitalism does it require that everyone owns capital; in fact it’s much more the opposite.
