Why do Liberals hate capitalism?
Seriously Michael Moore is a millionaire because of capitalism, he is a millionaire, his movies are across theaters cashing out at hundreds of millions of dollars in box office hits. I applaud him for his success. Not his views. Honestly if Capitalism is so bad, tell me where is the incentive to come up with new technological ideals if you can't make a profit. I don't think anything would be invented nor would this website exist if the person who manages it can't make a profit. Even in the work force when it comes to employment the job you look for isn't handed to you. You have to work for it, compete in interviews and sell your self as the best person for the job. Also when you're offered a raise, would you turn it down because it's not equal as your co-workers? I really have a hard time grasping how greed is in the equation. CEO's pay rate is determined on the company's out put. A CEO can't make millions if their company doesn't make millions. Is the person who runs the company really selfish because they run everything and the employee is at the bottom with not much at steak. I mean really a CEO has to talk to so many people as the employee just does a small task. Just think about it logically, how is it greedy to want to earn more money based on success. Even with getting grades in school you earn a better grade on how well you do individually, your GPA isn't split with your classroom. Competition is what Capitalism is all about. You keep what you earn and accomplish. If you're successful you can donate your money to help others at your will. Charity is supposed to go unrecognized, it's not a bragging right, so to just bash millionaires even past CEOs like actors, is just silly. We don't know what they privately do with their money, and so what, there will always be an upper class or rich class. If money doesn't determine class and everyone had the same amount. We would still want to try to make our selves feel superior, through knowledge, social cliques, or some other form to feel superior. It's human nature.
Do liberals who hate capitalism invest in the stock market?
If you are a liberal who hates capitalism what do you invest in? Do you buy 100% government bonds or just put your money in a savings account with a bank that is a capitalist corporation also?
Why do Liberals like Apple Computers so much and are all crying now just because Steve Jobs is dead?
99.99% of Liberals have iPhones, iPods, iPads and iMacs. Why? What exactly is it about Apple they love so much? And why do they worship Steve Jobs like some sort of God? Despite the fact that Apple is corporation (Liberals hate corporations) it gets zero criticism from Liberal hypocrites. Why???
Why do Liberals just LOVE Apple Computers, iPods, iPads so much?
Its stuff like this that makes me think republicans have been taken over by schizophrenics with paranoid delusions. Don't you have even one reasonable person left?
Why do people hate capitalism?
Well, here’s the capitalism I’m promised:Here’s the actual capitalism I deal with:It’s not really that I hate capitalism; I really couldn’t care less what kind of system of economic distribution we have, as long as it works.I’m not interested in being told I need to “just work harder”, if you work hard enough, you become the one expected to produce the milk of four cows, if you don’t, you get slaughtered.I just want to work hard enough to pay my bills and retire comfortably, without having to work obscene amounts of hours because that’s what my employer expects of me.Forty hours a week, health benefits, vacation time, shouldn’t that be a reasonable wage for most people to expect?I get it. We’ve globalized. The market’s changed. There’s higher demand/competition/whatever.But again, anytime I hear about how great capitalism is, it’s the top image; in experience, it’s been the latter more often than not. Again, I understand getting another job, responsibility and self reliance, but what exactly does that look like, and why does it change depending on who you ask?I’m sure it’s possible to find jobs or start businesses that don’t consume all your time and allow you to live comfortably, but why is finding that balance a full time job within itself?Don’t get me wrong; I’m sitting in my cozy little apartment, with plenty of food, typing this on a highly advanced technological marvel that the other half of the world doesn’t have easy access to,but let’s not forget that there’s plenty of capitalistic countries in that half as well!Sure, there’s plenty of repressive communist regimes left over from the cold war, but there’s plenty out there that don’t really regulate their enterprise.And I worry, sometimes, if my country will end up like theirs.Especially not when people are pulling tricks like this:I mean, what is even going on here? I understand they used a bunch of shady legal and business tricks to go from two cows to nine, but why is that even a thing?If capitalism is taking home what you earned, why does this exist? When people get away with stuff, doesn’t the economy get worse?I honestly couldn’t care less what we use to distribute goods and services, as long as it works.If we can solve these problems by de-regulation, by all means.If we need regulations to wrangle this stuff, do it.
