I can see why you would think that. I think this video explains it well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDPPig9JR5Y.
TL;DW: Capitalism in it's true form was "I give you this, you give me that". Exchange of goods. And from that perspective, it has worked. But now that nobody sells stuff anymore but holds you or the goods you want hostage, it has devolved back to the old system of feudalism where you live somewhere and the king asks for your work and money so you can live there.
I'm not saying thats the only way to look at it but I find the explanation pretty good. It would explain why so many people who are actually very good at trading things struggle in this climate now while others now thrive who have no clue how to produce viable products.
Absolute baby brained understanding of capitalism
I find your comment highly condescending. Care to elaborate?
there is "Passiv income class" and there is "Active income class"
Passiv income class lifes by/ off the Active Income of OTHERS , it is inherently parasitic and it will always intent to increas its parasitic Income..
thereby it will allways immiserate the active Income class . it is an eternal war ..
and you will instantly understand that war because YOU PErsonally would ver much like to NOT WORK but to let OTHERS WORK ..
The Passiv income class has ONE SINGLE OBJECTIV , it will increas e its PASSIV income , it will Increas the Exploitation of the ACtive income classes ..
this is the Class war . It is eternal as Communist (its describtion) .. Obviously the "PASSIV INCOME CLASS" will not be interested in explaining to the moronic people that they "Life of THEIR LABOUR" and are a Parasite .. so they gonna try to convince you that THEY DESERVE IT , they gonna use Ideology for that Task , they gonna tell you a story of "higgher " and "lower" humans and Determination and Indivdual Guilt of the non Privledged Active income classes ..
TLDR:
You are Active income (you will be by 99,9% chance) , YOU ARE AT WAR with the Passiv Income Class , that BY DEFINITION lives PARASITIC off the Masses and Will Allways seek to increase its "Passive Income" ..
as you do when you dream of riches ..
