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!

    The US is a hellscape? Why do we have such immigration pressure in that case? People aren’t immigrating to the US so that they can be elites. They’re immigrating here because the low tier they will have in society is better than their previous life.

        It also begs the question of why many of those places are worth risking everything to flee from, which western capitalism is typically involved with to a significant degree.
