But they don't get btfo. People post trailer trash memes and storefront shit, and eventually the thread fills up with a series of pictures of Asian models until it hits the bump or image limit or whatever and goes away. At least that's what happened the last couple of times I've done it. And the Asian model pictures come fast and all from the same set like it's a coordinated thing with a bunch of IP addresses...anyway, any decent leftie shit that gets posted there, that's what happens to it. I just stay away.

America runs under Free market capitalism. (Granted, there is a lot of red tape in a lot of places, but it's still free market capitalism)

it's not though, if it was all the free market capitalist's wouldn't be advocating for the implementation of free market capitalism, america is a neo-liberal corporatist system.

of course it's a capitalist system but not free market capitalism, FMC is the extreme, one step before AN-Cap, there are no truly FMC nations because they are almost ungovernable.

Libertarian's are the worst and only a milder form of fucking AnCaps. Chomsky refuted this as more right-wing wishful thinking decades ago.

No, I'm sorry, this isn't capitalism at all. Have you read Adam Smith?

What you call red tape are laws and systems designed to extract money from the working class and give it to the upper class, and prop up systems that should have failed long ago. America is capitalist when it benefits the ruling class, and collectivist when it benefits the working class.

Case in point, the health insurance system (and people say insurance, but the purpose of insurance is to make you whole in the event of an unexpected loss, and medical care is not an unexpected loss and health insurance doesn't make you whole) should have been allowed to collapse by now. Even hardcore capitalists believe in socialization of essential services, but what happened when the health insurance system was in danger of collapse was we forced some of the poorest people in the country to give money to some of the richest people on the planet instead of socializing it as an essential service. Essential services should not be subject to market forces, but since it makes the ruling class rich, we have the ACA.

Similarly, there's no reason why agriculture shouldn't be subject to market forces in this our current year, since the small farmer has been long since relegated to the niche and massive corporate superfarms now supply the majority of our food. Yet here we are giving massive ag subsidiesrations that don't need the help.

We're globalist with capital and protectionist with labor. We've got American workers competing against Chinese workers who make a dollar an hour, and blaming our own workers for being greedy when they want to make a living wage.

How is America capitalist?

wtf, what is wrong with opportunities?

If you had an opportunity and looked back at me I'd say "it's cool, go for it bro!"
>>
>>37983172
It's laissez-faire capitalism, which is kind of like FMC, it just has red tape here and there, so there are more regulations. Granted it's not COMPLETELY free, but it's still FMC. Er, well, more like MFMC (Mostly free market capitalism)
>>
>>37983283
they aren't liberals, not by the political science definition at least, though i know the term has lost a lot of it's meaning in public discussion. liberalism is closest to libertarianism in modern politics. Secular liberalism built modern Europe and america, fueled the renascence and modernized the world over.

>>37983307
America is capitalist because I can go outside, and start a lemonade stand, and if that lemonade stand is profitable, It will stay Open, however, if My lemonade stand is NOT profitable, it will Not stay open. It's still capitalism. and when i say Red Tape, I mean Regulations. Yes, there are unfair laws, Yes, there are Unfair systems, but that's the governments fault. America is Obviously a capitalist system.

That's an awfully low bar you've set. Especially since what you've just described is socialism. I own my own business as well, but I am very much not a capitalist. Workers control the means of production in your example.
>>37983390
That's the thing, I've lived in Brazil, there's nothing socialist about it. But here you are saying America is capitalist and Brazil is socialist when America is demonstrably not capitalist and Brazil has never been socialist in the history of the nation.

>socialism
>a political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.
Look at the cow example:

Socialism is much different then Capitalism.

>>37983680
Well, I can answer that picture
Assuming you just hand everyone everything they need, then there is NO motivation to work. The reason we work is to earn something
>>
>>37983730
The futurology argument is that we should define a minimum standard that people shouldn't live below (otherwise they become a drain on resources). People need adequate housing, food, and medical care. The absolute minimum. Universal basic income takes care of that, and then we eliminate WIC, SNAP, Housing subsidies, and all those social programs that are complicated and expensive to administer. Then we eliminate the minimum wage and open labor to market forces. Imagine being able to pay people $3 an hour. We'd have close to zero unemployment, and our tax base would be massive.
>>
>>37981475
Honestly i dont really have a political affilation.
Seems like a fools trap to get into pointless stuff like that.
If anything, i suppose i lean right, because i want to keep my gun rights and all.
At the same time i do agree with liberals that minimum wage should be increased.
That would most likely fix alot of the problems with poverty in large populated states with really expensive living conditions.

Im not the other anon, but what youre saying sounds great on paper but in practise would never work in America.
Bacllash for this sort of thing would be pretty massive.

It might happen whether we like it or not. Our productivity has gone up 43% over the past 15 years, but the number of hours we've worked has remained about the same. Drastic changes will be absolutely necessary in our lifetime to prevent us from becoming a third world shithole.

Who the fuck would work for $3 an hour if they already had a secure income? And you realize that between price increases now that everyone has more disposable income and tax hikes to pay for this shit that $3 (which is now $0.75 after payroll taxes and costs the employer $25) is going to be worth less than the paper it's printed on. Does /leftypol/ just stay up at night thinking of new ways to crash economies or something?
