So you don’t think your life is better than someone from the 16th century?
I'm so tired of this nonsense argument, is capitalism your God to which you give credit for every human accomplishment? How did capitalism help to raise the Russian serfs to the status of a world superpower? It didn't... How did capitalism help Russia get to space before the United States? How did capitalism help human life improve before the 16th century?
I wonder what you even think capitalism is. I wonder if you comprehend that technological advancement, markets, money, and trade aren't synonymous with it.
You love democracy but when it comes to matters of economic decisions you are bootlicking the petite dictators that control every aspect of your economic life. You are employed by people whose means of acquiring wealth is to skim off the top of what you're producing and steal it from you but you are too busy making eye contact while you suck them off that you don't see their hand in your pocket.
The world is burning and there's plastic in your balls because of capitalism, you are such a good submissive little peasant.
