What are the negatives?

Pros: faster missiles, more absorbent bathroom tissue.
Cons: all living beings and their futures and the planet they live on may be sacrificed on the altar of profit and growth.

The market is amazing at making better products. It's shit for making better human beings.

In my opinion, capitalism is for the lucky, quick of mind, and driven. The benefits are obvious. You get to live off the rest in society. They work for you.

Lower prices, higher quality, more innovation.

Negatives...when liberals way overregulate it, undos the benefits.

@MasterLee Nope, extreme shrinkflation at insane prices are getting worse, all of it starting under Baby BushStain 43 in the 00's after 9/11

If you have a good idea you can profit from it. In communism you own nothing. The state owns everything.

@Musicman My oldest step sister is a retired prosecutor, she said the contract appeared legit, when I told her in July 2022 what they did she advised me to sue them.

@NativePortlander1970 Did you?

NativePortlander1970 ·

@Musicman I had no money left to sue, so my almost 35 year lifelong dream that I worked hard on is gone

No benefits, all negatives
