Capitalism pins everybody against each other, so we have to compete

>if hard work made you rich, beavers would be millionaires

it's slightly more complicated than that

>>133916891
Work doesn't automatically make you rich, you have to be smart and know business, maybe if those women in Africa set up a store with goods that people wanted they'd make a lot of money

This shit is not hard
I used to be a cart pusher at Walmart for 9.40 an hour. I would see tweakers asking for money, and over and over again see them make more than me, from customers that I'M providing a service to, giving tweakers more than I earn in a day in an hour

Hard work doesn't mean wealth. This is the same flawed thinking that thinks a man building a table for 8hrs makes it more valuable than a team using machines. Labor theory of value is bullshit.

>>133916891
Yeah, we should all live like Africans. I mean they're doing so much better than we are, right?

Competition breeds innovation.

In a true free market, you are free to cooperate or compete with whomever you wish.

By your logic I should be able to get rich by picking up a large boulder and dropping it repeatedly because it's hard work, despite the fact it provides absolutely no value for anyone.

Economic exchanges are not a zero sum game. People render services or create products that others want at a price they're willing to pay, this happens due to self interest and greed. The exchange is mutually beneficial and everybody wins.

Ie. Capitalism is working together, socialism is following orders from fucknuts on high in order to avoid the gulag, therefore shit and gay.

Yea, no.

He would have us dig holes with spoons instead of machinery.

That a Russian can advocate for such policies despite seeing the ruin it brought his country in the last century is quite amazing

> always doing the same thing over and over is enterprise

That's where you fucked up.

Carrying sticks. That’s what retarded commies call "enterprise" these days. Africans are doing the same work that cavewomen did a million years ago. If carrying sticks is worth a million dollars, then piling rocks must be worth a billion.

Socialism causes way more problems than it solves. In theory it sounds nice, but when you look what really happens in a socialist society, you'd be dumb to want it.

>what the hell, I pounded on a log with a sledgehammer for 12 hours today and didn't make any money, fucking capitalism

>>133916891

More entitled bullshit from the commie left. You wont get rich from slamming your head against a concrete slab for 8 hours a day, either you fucking retards.

Learn a VALUABLE skill that is in demand. Carrying around sticks doesn't build wealth.

Communism pits the haves vs the have nots

Socialism pits the group vs the individual

Capitalism pits the individual vs the individual

Capitalism is the best solution

capitalism pits everybody against everybody

I submit that socialism is why those stick carrying women are still poor.
They do it for some ill conceived notion of greater good.
Under capitalism, one of them would be enterprising enough to tell another, hey I'll carry your bundle for you in exchange for a payment you deem fair. Then that woman would be an entrepreneur. She would start a stick carrying business. And since the others think that's stupid and they want to be lazy they'll also allow her to carry their sticks. After enough people pay her to do it. She earns enough to hire a second person to help her. The two of them can carry even more sticks. Thus earning more which she would use to create more jobs and more wealth. The only reason they don't do this, is because dumbass liberals like you claim that capitalism doesn't work and feed them full of defeatist attitudes. You should be ashamed of yourself for keeping those poor women poor.

Capitalism gives people the most freedom. You can't have socialism without forcing people to do t he things you want them to do. You gonna have to take money from people against their own will.

Capitalism on the other hand is about voluntary cooperation. You only give something to someone else if you are willing to do it.

It's even worse than that. As soon as one of these poor women makes a little profit, along comes a fat gold-toothed nigger with a degree in Marxist economics from Patrice Lumumba University, at the head of a gang of men with rifles, and they confiscate the surplus in the name of the people. The Gatherers and Sharers from the last chapter in the Lord of the Rings, remember them? Lots more gathering than sharing.

The people of Africa would be best served by rounding up and executing everyone in their government who studied politics or economics at a Western university, and swearing an oath to do the same to any socialist who dares set foot in their country again.
