Thread: Capitalism Isn't Problem, It's The False Capitalist !

Who keeps the cheap labor coming ? It's the American capitalist who run the corporations .

These are not the real capitalist who use to keep Americans busy, they are the apostates of the system .

When a nation loses it's principles ,values and culture, the sons of that nation no longer have loyalty , limits or conscience .

I think this is the core of all our problems .

I agree. Not to mention you can't have free trade agreements with 1st and 3rd world countries on totally different playing rules. Sorry but a cup of rice there and 28 an hr here......country that taxes and rules you death vs others who have no standards at all? Doesn't mix. You can't compete like that. Period. Something is seriously wrong when failed CEO's getting fired are given 57 MILLION dollar BONUS....and on the other end get fired for being sick.

I think that capitalism gave us everything that is good and right with this country.

It is the corporations, who lobby and spend in order to own Washington D.C., that are the cause of the problem.

But even the smaller businesses, especially landscapers and restaurant owners, seem to insist that they need cheap labor because if they actually had to pay more money they couldn't survive.

Well, duh. I was taught that's how the market works. Labor shortages mean wages rise, which means business has to either improve efficiency, raise prices, or fold up. Importing illegal labor to dilute the market isn't healthy for the economy.

The problem is NOT capitalism, but the ABUSE of capitalism.

Agreed. I beleive that capitalism is doomed to fail unless regulated. Too many of today's capitalists seem to think that any and all regulation is socialism. With this narrowed debate, anything less than an unregulated global economy is socialism. Lou Dobbs has been called a socialist. it has gotten insane.
