So thank you, LR! You just reaffirm what so many of our grandparents generation knew instinctively when they stared down the red menace, except now the world has changed. The game is over.

It is funny seeing far leftists turn against the college meme, though, given how the 2nd tier and below postsecondary institutions are their biggest means of reproduction.
the system should be doing something else, but they are being funneled into useless programs because subsidies in the form of govt. backed loans distort price signalling / the overall market/2
As soon as the government decided that college was a "public good" the entire market for education was twisted beyond recognition. The reality is, most people currently being pushed through /1
Smedly Butler doesn't even blame capitalism in his book, he lays the blame at what is later called the military industrial complex, not private ownership of the means of production.
She will then claim intellectual superiority over the unfortuante target of her hissy fit, yet despite her tremendous brain power she is constantly victimized by "stupid capitalists."
@UltraRik, you'll find that when you ask LightRider a question, she never has a coherent answer and resorts to a series of grunts, curse words and insults.
Haha, so funny watching the American left continue to freak out and eat itself alive. Can't wait for 2020. The sequel Remember Godfather Part 2 was even better than the first!
"Nuh-uh, Capitalism also kills" is the political equivalent of "/r/btc is just as censored as /r/bitcoin!": the amount of handwaving and disregard for basic logic required is almost the same.
They best they can do is point to deaths resulting from activities that only wealthy people have the privilege of engaging in, like driving, or unrelated things the state does, like war.
We can at least say "gee, if the grain and farmland hadn't been appropriated by the state, millions would still be alive," there is no comparable argument by the communists.
At least free-market advocates can describe a coherent chain of events from the institution of communism to avoidable human death. Communists never do. They just point to any death and whine.
"Capitalism kills" is just a classic case of the redistributionists projecting their own crimes on the people they are attacking. It's pretty funny to watch to be honest.
"Drumpf is le dumb because he can't play a musical instrument" lol, this is just getting sad at this point. Later, I'm going to go actually get some work done.
If you spent half as much energy on actually trading up what little capital you have as you do making excuses for why you have nothing, you could have started your own commune by now.
Ah yes, "acquiring capital is criminal when it is done freely and voluntarily, but it is moral when I band together with my fellow losers and rob someone at gunpoint." Top kek.
If a moron can become president or get as rich as Evil Dr. Bezos, then it should be no problem for you. Oh wait, shitposing on memo is the correct path of the eternal victim, not actual success.
