How can anyone support jesus and capitalism?

It is much harder for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God than for a camel to go through the eye of a needle.

Capitalism is cancer

@SW-User not near as cancerous as socialism and communism. Your statement is bullshit.

@Baremine I never suggested socialism as a solution. You know there are more than two categories of economics, though, right?

Not like you could even define capitalism or communism or socialism correctly without looking it up first.

Mmmm… You graduated high school during the Cold War, though… so I guess all the self-glorifying American public education system only taught you so much, and it definitely wasn’t how to think for yourself. Open your eyes and seek truth.

@Baremine doesn't change that capitalism is made for the wealthy and exploits workers
Baremine · 70-79, C
@Guitarman123 capitalism is how workers get wealthy. The harder you work the more you make. The less you work the poorer you are.

@Baremine yet majority of workers aren't wealthy and will never be wealthy as the system builds walls that keeps them earning a subsistence wage.

@Guitarman123 they’re still plugged into the Matrix there isn’t any use lol

@Baremine workers can work as hard as possible and still be stuck just being a cog in the machine

@SW-User too busy wanting to maintain their hyperteality to realise that the world around them is incredibly complex and that the capitalist system isn't built for workers but instead uses and abuses workers for surplus value

@Guitarman123 Don’t even get me started on pharmaceuticals and grocery stores

@Guitarman123 if they are it's because they suck and perform any higher.

@Slade shoo shoo grumpy old man
Baremine · 70-79, C
@Guitarman123 a lot of the reason workers aren't rich is money wasted on alcohol and entertainment of various kinds. We spent $100000 on 8 years racing cars. Lot of fun but very costly.
Guitarman123 · 31-35, M
@Baremine and who provides all that? The capitalist system

@Slade you are a strange boy
