[QUOTE="llamainmypocket, post: 1537964, member: 54113"] Well... It's how our system works. It's Capitalism with government oversight. I wouldn't say i disagree with much of what you've said. Corporate greed, yup. philanthropy negating the pursuit of profits, yup, It's a objectively true. Union benchmarks for wages and benefits, yup. In fact, we(as a country) need more union representation in my humble opinion. I even agree that unions are good for the economy. The reason i believe this is because the closer money is too middle class people the more gets spent, circulating through the market, running it hotter, and creating growth. Rich people simply save, diversify, and invest. That's a net loss relative to lower income classes. Where we diverge is due to philosophical and political differences. Does the world need ceo's? Does it need capitalism with government oversight? Would there be another system that's better? Philosophy and politics. we'd never get to the bottom of that discussion. The reason why i used so many words was because i was trying to give reason/cause to my position. I think that's necessary to make the kind of argument that can change minds. Most arguments are just a rallying cry to various tribal loyalties. [/QUOTE]
