lolbertarians are some of the dumbest people on earth.
okay, let’s say it is “crony capitalism run by the state” (he doesn’t mean state capitalism, he doesn’t know what that means)
what else can capitalism become, especially without extremely strict regulation and wealth/income caps- all things these people are against? and to the extent that the state has its hand in the economy, is it not ONLY to benefit corporations? they’re not regulating these companies or anything to any meaningful degree. so if the government is bad because they only serve big business, even in their own completely nonsensical analysis, doesnt that still make capitalism the problem?
Capitalism is good when I, a mediocre white person, can make enough money to flip real estate on the side and make at least $350k per year and pay little to no capital gains tax and then buy a used snowmobile dealership
Capitalism is crony capitalism when there's a big financial and real estate sector run by billionaires who make it hard for me, a mediocre white person, to flip real estate on the side and also I have to pay capital gains tax meaning I am precarious in my position as a snowmobile dealership owner
What if we try a capitalism where we just give everyone $350k per year and we have no snowmobile dealerships or real estate
