- tgv 2y agoAs long as the government allows it, greed will make corporations try to grab more and more, especially since the finance/MBA types have taken over. It's not strange to call that capitalism, since it is in its very nature.
- manuelmoreale 2y agoI don’t disagree with that and I’m no fan of the current situation.
- CivBase 2y agoBut that's litterally not what capitalsim is. Calling that "capitalism" is no better than calling all regulations "communism". It just serves to poison conversations on the subject.
- manuelmoreale 2y agoI’m not saying it’s a good definition. It’s just how I see people using the term. I personally don’t think there’s a good discussion to be had around the subject of this post btw. There’s literally no good reason for that fee. None.
