    Yes if you don’t enforce it, but you don’t want to enforce it now, do you. You love greed until you are on the receiving end

      You can’t even understand your own mother and here you are making bold assumptions about the personal values of someone you met on the internet half an hour ago. Fucking classic reddit right there man

      Greed is the source of nearly all human misery and it is not necessary for life at all, and I have personally witnessed what it has done to people

      I do not love greed in any form and the fact you just stated that with such effortless confidence tells me our society really isn’t worth saving.

      And now these statements, despite being only minor glimpses into my value system will of course immediately fill you with ten thousand assumptions as to who I am or what I think.

      That’s mental illness friend

        Are you familiar with anti-trust laws ? Anti-corruption laws ?

        According to you they shouldn’t exist, because a crafty psychopath will get in anyway & yes you do love being greedy as long as it benefits you, why else would you be defending capitalism.

        Socialism HAS been tried & it works. You see I want everyone to get welfare, because with it you can have a safety net against the abusive owner-class. BTW, I’ve never been on reddit (I don’t even have a twitter account)

          So I’ll be upfront and say i don’t know shit about socialism as a concept.

          Do you have any examples of socialism that has worked (or is currently working) at modern nation scales ?

          I’m genuinely not picking a fight, just looking for examples to read up on.

            Cuba, Laos, Vietnam & the state of Kerala in India. China too (but they shifted to state-capitalism). Most of Latin America were electing socialist leaders as well. (Until some coup came along)
