DaftyduxErm. I think Im in the wrong place.
deaf_fishYeah, your right, there is no reason for capitalism to create poverty except to reduce upwards pressure on wages. Also, it’s a good thing that some people are billionaires. Clearly, the billionaires deserve to be billionaires and the people in poverty deserve to be in poverty. /S
Sigh. Such intelect. Truly astonishing.
Thanks, I try not to show it off too much. Glad you learned something.
Mission accompished?
Valid point, there is only so much you can learn from one reply. I suggest you look for more knowledge. The YouTube channel Unlearning Economics does some pretty good econ videos.
Mmhmmm.
Love how you failed to spell intellect correctly.
Lmao.
capitalism doesnt create poverty.
How? It’s entire design is to extract all the wealth from the bottom to funnel to the top? Especially in our current system where the only thing that matters is short term profits and continuous growth.
Hell monopoly was created to show how terrible the system was by making the point driving everyone else into bankruptcy
Just look up the definition of poverty. Poverty is bound to exsist in any society where there is scarcity. Thats just… survival
Which capitalism uses to break people down for others profits. Don’t do what the rich say hello being unhoused, or unable to feed yourself and family or just unable to get medical attention.
Perhaps that is true. But the system capitalism thrives on created poverty. Thus, cause and effect become indistinguishable.

Regional effects may be to blame, like famine of old, for sure. But in the modern world, capitalism blocks attempts to end poverty, by all means possible: wage suppression, lobbying against health care reform, and against consumer advocacy, and against unions, just to name a tiny fraction.
Billionaires can’t exist without poverty. Buying power demands this. Consumers on spend so much, can only spend what they earn.
Profit comes only from the spending power of the masses, as a general rule. To take a greater share, someone has to take a lesser share.
Fantasies abound of a financial world where this rule does not apply, yet all but a smidgeon of finance rests on commodities, utilities, rent, and consumer spending, sitting at the bottom of the pyramid of cards, or maybe just a scheme.
More markets? More growth. Sure, let’s see that end poverty. The end of poverty is to lessen the share of the rich. It is just common sense.
