In 2011 Google surreptitiously edited, "don't be evil", from its mission statement. Voila!
As Macron would say, "who would have guessed capitalism is evil?"
As Trump would say, "who knew healthcare could be so hard?", at least french people know how to protest...
so letting a person own their own company is evil? we just hand it to the government?
this is about greed not capitalism... which is private ownership. our government is just as greedy
Yes, letting a person own a means of production leads to greed and they, unlike government, are not able to be voted out. They just grow more powerful and stupid drunk on wealth and they do stupid shit that destroys economies and environments and societies and surround themselves with yes men so they never have to hear about the consequences of their actions from anyone “important”.
Elon musk should not own the space program. Jeff Bezos should not own all retail. Palmer Luckey should be “disrupting” defense.
You are not a capitalist, you are a worker with Stockholm syndrome. Fuck capitalism, it’s time for it to go. It’s antiquated and unnecessary.
