[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 2201631, member: 56035"] they apparently dont because if they did we wouldnt have capitalism. you have to understand theres a huge system of propaganda out there to stop people pursing what would otherwise come naturally to them...the people who control the means of production, also control the mental production as well. but anyways my favorite economist richard wolff says he always asks his class every year what is their career goal, and they always say "to run their own business", which says to me people want to control their own destiny, be it individually or together. i was having a talk with a coworker the other day, he wanted to start his own biz and was critical of being ripped off by capitalism making someone else rich, even if he didnt call capitalism out specifically.
