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!

    Dude, that is not the way to talk to someone if they are just trying to understand. They were raised in a capatilist country and were taught capatilism is the best. They are trying to expand their horizons and the way you responded will just make them think that we’re all a bunch of assholes. Even if you wanted them to dig deep and find out why they care for capatilism that is not the way to do it. This is how we accomplish nothing but antagonism.

      Lol! Have you noticed all the naive people on here expending large amounts of energy explaining their distaste of capitalism instead of making the enlightened centrist troll defend their beliefs?
