bc by all indications OP thinks socialism is when the government gives you free stuff

Big gubermint = Socialism

Lil gubermint = Capitalism

Cavemen lived under capitalism because they had no guberment, good times all around

Is capitalism the reason you scared to leave your home?

Cavemen did not live in a capitalist society, they weren’t even in a mercantilist society yet which is the starting steps to capitalism

Do you think that capitalism is the final form of economics? That this is it? Or that we will move past this the same way we moved past feudalism?

Free stuff? With taxpayers money? Nah fam :keefnah:

Capitalism is progress while soycialism is backwards

When automation takes over all our basic needs will be accounted for through UBI or heavily subsidized food, so what are you niggas so worried for

OP that frat boy that starts making huge claims about complex political theories a month into taking a gen ed poli sci class while simultaneously receiving a monthly direct deposit from daddy so he can party 4 days out of the week.

As the market changes and technology advances, modern economic policies will definitely have to adapt

Some would already argue that capitalism as defined doesn’t event exist anymore - we are actually in a democratic socialist state.

For example, under true capitalism, social security and Obama care would never exist.

So while, there are capitalist tendencies in the market currently, There are social programs via the government that would not be accepted under capitalism.

But yeah, capitalism isn’t the final stage. I think there never will be a final stage, since the world and technology is constantly changing

College socialists are the same way lol

They have one Marxist professor in some intro to macro class and never worked a real job in their life, yet they think they know exactly what direction the political economy should move in

That argument works both ways.

They'll give us barely enough to survive and you know that

Socialism is not "government gives you things" bro

Just because we have some things within our society that are in common with social democracy doesn't mean we are socialist in any way.

You projecting your insecurities about the dude who f***ed your freshman girlfriend onto me? Weird

You’re describing socialism rn

Every college kid thinks they know every and has the answers to all the worlds problems.

US and world politics is extremely complex and there isn’t a human on earth that has a full understanding of it. The point I was trying to make is that the US is blend of capitalism and socialism. It doesn’t subscribe to one singular theory. Every US citizen needs socialism to to function on a daily basis. To ignore that is to deny reality and it comes off especially ignorant when someone coming from a place of privilege wants to prevent access to services for those that need it while they take handouts themselves in some form or another.

They won’t be able to get away with that if we constitute the largest voting bloc

Big stretch there, but go off sis

We got a use of the word “privilege” guys. Get your SJW bingo cards ready!

Are people not allowed to use words now?

You’re right privileged doesn’t exist. We are born equal and poor people are just lazy and hate money. F*** em right?

The only thing being stretched is your girl by that frat boy that starts making huge claims about complex political theories a month into taking a gen ed poli sci class while simultaneously receiving a monthly direct deposit from daddy so he can party 4 days out of the week.

So are you saying we ARENT equal? That’s your stance? That some people are better than others?
