The miners were put there by one capitalist enterprise and rescued by another.
Let's not turn this thread into yet another parade of ideological comments about the "capitalist system".
- tptacek 16y agoI'm not a socialist; I think "socialist vs. capitalist" is the narrative this writer wants to create, when the reality is that this exposes a conflict between a regulated free market and an unchecked free market. Chile didn't produce the miracle drill bit; we did.
- cynicalkane 16y agoI believe you, but "capitalism vs socialism" and variants on that theme are what threads like this invariably turn into, unless you are careful about qualifying your words. Edit: it's happening already.
