On Capitalism

The benefit of it is obvious. And Americans the likes of Ben Shapiro love promoting Capitalism. Especially when the only alternative is communism. However, these aren't the only two choices. It should be more complex.

Here I will focus more on the bad of Capitalism. I've been wanting to do this for some time now. Ben Shapiro loves to promote capitalism as driving charity, I simply don't think so. Unless you are saying it is alright to have a dignified pride for doing philanthropy. If so, I don't want part of it. Because these people, when they lose, they would be sore losers, feeling too proud to enlist help from others. As long as America is great, and they are American citizens, they are free to feel as proud as they want against other nations. This pathetic pride, of course, is not limited to just advocates of capitalism, but to also, and particularly, nationalists as well. In fact, it is the other side, the adherents of communism, or the Democrats, that have a more selfless character for helping others. They wouldn't for a second thought think to live among the poor, suffer with the poor, being rich themselves, seeing themselves equal with the poor. Of course, this is over generalizing. There are extremists, who choose the foolish path of feeding even the lazy ones.

I came cross some interesting point from the Netflix Korean drama series: Strong Girl Nam-soon: Ep. 8 (Light and Shadow of Gangnam) @29:00, when Capitalism 자본주의 (pronounced very similar to Chinese - 资本主义) is mentioned: You can only win if someone else loses. It is true in a sense that we are not talking about a win-win nor property rights, we are talking about advocates for the survival of the fittest, of copyright laws, and such to their most wicked justification.
