Want to hazard a guess at what I studied in university?
So yeah, I’ve read more than a book or two you absolute fucking retard.
As for champagne socialist, I do fit the description as my parents are comfortably middle-class but social ideals are beyond economics nowadays. It’s about justice and fairness.
socialist justice and fairness is subjective, if you can be cancelled for saying the wrong word, not all have justice
and neither does justice pay the bills or rent or food on the table
the entrepreneurs who you work for has to create value for customers and for shareholders who invest in him,
if he doe snot, no businesses, no jobs for you, no food on the table, society doe snot win
the businessman who creates a company and hires you is more just than any social justice warrior,
the businessman/woman pays your salary, so you have the capital to be productive at work and thus you can put food on the table
capitalism is why your 9 year old kid does not work because the father and his salary is enough for the family, thanks to savings and capital expenditure shares provide the capital to the business you work for
capitalism is why you fly from London to NY in 8 hours and not a 3 months voyage thanks to brave shareholders who backed Mr Boeing so he can create planes and train pilots
its the fruits of the free market capitalism that has improved your life and the lives of billion s
thanks to free trade and capitalism , you can drive a cheap car with 30,000 parts made in 180 nations that come together thanks to the ability to make a profit and each nation benefits due to her comparative advantage
your as a mere working class person, you have more luxuries than kings could dream of 100 years ago and you can buy it cheap thanks to capital, savings and investments in due part to cpaitalsm
and your children do not have to be chimney sweepers as capitalism has made your productivity so high your kids can focus on education rather than sweeping chimneys at age 8 years old
the average Roman lived 25 years, thanks to capitalism and her ability to accumulate capital and savings and invest in drugs, you can live on average till your 80s
don't cut of your noses to spite off your face you champagne socialist kids who think its cool to be a communist
