    You know. I would try to fight this as a statement if we did not put in our constitution that slavery is fine for prisoners.

      Is there anything in the constitution about not making arbitrary laws to make any random person ultimately a criminal?

    Obviously those things (except capitalism and some wars) are bad, but literally every country has a history of essentially the same thing.

      Late stage capitalism is bad, we don’t have a better system really, so on that issue, I say we just reset the whole thing. Capitalism reboot.

    The US has capitalism? Seems pretty regulated by people bought by corporations to me.

      That’s…capitalism. In a profit-seeking society, there’s no greater profit than taking control of the society’s government. There’s no such thing as “crony capitalism” if that is what you are referring to. It’s all a part of the game. Any sufficiently powerful company will eventually attempt to manipulate the law and regulations for their own gain.

      The Soviet Union is basically what it would look like if a single corporation managed to completely take over society and push out all competition. That’s why some people argue that it was a type of society known as “state capitalist”, instead of communist, since they never actually did away with money, class, or hierarchy.
