That's not the point of my response. It is tiresome, and detracts from meaningful discourse to have the same tired anti-capitalism meme tacked onto everything.

That's not the point of my response. It is tiresome, and detracts from meaningful discourse to have the same tired anti-capitalism meme tacked onto everything. It didn't even make sense in the post I was responding to - which is entirely my point.

I'm pointing out that, due to how strongly capitalism rewards cash flow and previously accumulated capital, that feedback/correcting mechanism is often _extremely slow_. That feels relevant to me.
