Capitalism means the private ownership of capital, not the blind worship of profits.
- falcolas 6y agoWell, if I borrow from Wikipedia (and the definition is heavily attributed), it's more the private ownership of the means of production, and the operation of that means for profit. Blind worship, no. But profit is definitely bundled into the concept of capitalism. And corporations throughout America are definitely leaning into the "profit at any cost" and "shareholder value at any cost" mantras. EDIT: Disliking something doesn't make it go away, folks.
