[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 2359517, member: 56035"] no i wasnt arguing that at all. i was making a general statement about free will vs determinism. its a hard pill to swallow that were often not in control of our lives. i think wealth redistribution would help since capitalism distributes wealth so unequally to begin with. you gotta hand it to the 0.1% capitalists: they trick everyone into believing its the best system, and they get rich. and i agree people need to change their understanding of how money works and how capitalism works and then they will see that its a system which is undemocratic which funnels wealth to the 0.1%. it should be no suprise that if you let a corporation who has an incentive to keep as much money for themselves as possible, then they are going to do a bad job at managing worker`s retirements. different idea, but ive been thinking how much vacation per year do the capitalists take. and how much do the workers take. i think when you combine the systemic inequality of capitalism, the way capitalism ruins jobs in the sense that workers would never vote to do that to themselves but under capitalism the capitalists make all the :censored:ty rules, plus climate change because of capitalism, it means we need revolution and a new system.
