Being a store front for Chinese goods made with stolen technology and using taxpayer subsidized labor to process orders is not capitalism. It adds no value to the over all wealth of the USA. The wealth is created in the factory.

But this is only important to the patriot/nationalist and of no concern to the globalist.

I see very few actual capitalists out there anymore.

Only opportunists who glom onto government in hopes that it can be bribed into tilting the playing field in their direction.

My local “business news” rag is filled with nothing but supposed entrepreneurs and CEO’s whining that government isn’t doing enough for them.

They are undermining the argument to low-info voters as to why they should not vote Socialist. Government is tilting the playing field anyway, so it all becomes a scrum where everyone tries to tilt it in their own direction.

Bezos is a corporatist, masquerading as a capitalist. None of the high-tech Lords of the Universe are capitalists. Chick-fil-a and Home Depot are capitalists. Trump is a capitalist.

Globalists aren’t ‘capitalists’. They push for crony Communism.

All animals are equal some are more equal than others.

No revolutionary leader wants to live in a hut with the common labourers.

Of course, the higher wage will be good for workers who still have jobs.

Mom-and-pop stores could not absorb the increased labor costs, but places like Wal-Mart, Amazon, and Home Dept can. Not only will they not fire anyone, they’ll keep hiring as they open new stores. The economies-of-scale that these large firms benefit from offsets the increased labor costs. Unless they are simply making other poor, business model decisions they are gonna easily be in the black.

One problem is that when capitalists run into the modern media and its Alinsky tactics, they immediately become fascists.

Kill the media. The world will become instantly better.
