--- Quote from: Cappytaino on May 01, 2017, 06:48:31 PM ---The incentive to overachieve in a capitalist society is money. Money can be translated into goods and services, so the more goods or services you provide (through either being more efficient or more skilled/learning a desirable trade) then that translates to more money in your pocket, and in effect, more goods and services you can consume. You can live a VERY comfortable life if you overachieve in capitalism. In communism you don't get anything extra except maybe recognition, so there is very little incentive. --- End quote --- If you don't achieve at all in capitalism, or you're born into unsavory circumstances, you're most likely gonna keep getting forgeted over by capitalism until you die. I'm not a communist and I don't pretend it's a good system for redistributing wealth, but the idea that capitalism can provide people with very comfortable lives outside of a select lucky few is out there. |

you'd be hard pressed to find someone who actually thinks capitalism is equal or fair, rather you'd just find a lot of people who couldn't care less because it doesnt affect them |
