Since we’ve “figured it out,” we’ve made sure that most people don’t have access to basic services unless they spend huge amounts of money and that the planet is in a state of disaster.
(How is this not a capitalist problem?Having the government imposed a carbon tax goes against the idea of a free market. Most of the politicians in power are capitalists.)
What services do you think people had for free earlier?
And you misunderstanding how capitalism works doesn’t mean a carbon tax is against a free market any more than rules againat pouring nuclear waste into rivers goes against a free market. A free market had all sorts of rules to protect us from the excesses of capitalism, that’s literally the entire point of anti-trust law, because the correct capitalist move for a company is to become a monopoly, which would be bad for consumers. Thus, we tame the excesses of capitalism.
Give it up OP, you won’t find an audience here. Just angry kids bitching about capitalism on their devices, made by capitalist economies. LOL, want to piss off some of these tankies? Point out that China was a struggling, failing mess until they allowed capitalism into their economy. China is poised to become the 21st century America.
FWIW, I’m with you. Capitalism is the best economic system yet, but it needs guardrails. In America we’ve stripped those out. Anti-trust law isn’t a thing any longer.
