You are one of my favorite posters to read around here. I routinely am amazed at the things you believe. Hard to imagine a functioning adult holding views that clash with reality in such a staggering way.

The USA has the best culture for innovation as well as the best government system to allow it. On top of all that we are the most resource rich continent. This is why we are who we are.

Progressivism is a mental disorder driven by cowardice and weakness.

R.I.P. Crystal Pepsi and Jolt Cola.

People are no longer civil or civically minded. You will not see real innovation for another 100 years from American Corporations as the RnD money and science is going outside of the country. And off world.

Expect more weird porn and a spiral of copywrite, trademark warfare, and lawyer questing as the country falls.

Individuals and small collectives will try to splinter away and form their own communities and farming agriculturals around strange cults in very select cases, but these will not be popularized on the news. And most will be raided by big Weed.

I always found that the most innovation tends to always come from whoever is exploring and colonizing the New World and that goes all the way back to 10,000 BC to today.

Capitalism is irrelevant the human desire to expand, progress, and grow is what makes innovation happen.

That’s just genetic.

Things will get better once we have a colony on Mars that people can wild west and explore and conquer and then America can become the next UK.

Just sitting here with our guns like they sit there with their tea.

@op, capitalism @ ANY price or cost is worthless.

The alternatives to capitalism are scary. Honestly man, if my life would I’m price under another system, I would give it some thought.

The problem isn't capitalism, the problem is the governments, police, and militaries, protecting failed businesses, industries, real-estate-moguls.

The people need to rise up, reformat the drive, and start building new farms with new tech. And cleaning up the mess.

Ya, I agree. How many laws are on the books that don’t need to be? Why is our tax code so complex? Why do we allow the government to pick winners and losers? I blame republicans equally with democrats for the issues we have

I prefer true capitalism with true libertarianism.

Yep, tbh, I blame the dems more. I see more waste and harm in 'social programs' and 'safety regulations'. I should have probably left to Texas and become a janitor at a whiskey stillery, but I failed myself and my country because I kinda am an idiot. People need to do stuff for themselves, even if it's just grow orgeno instead of ordering pizza online.

But there seems to be no hope now. But that's just me, here's to hoping the generation who lives through the next 10 years does something right for a change.

I should shut up.

Capitalism breeds corruption, as does ANY form of government. WHY DO YOU NEED ME TO TELL YOU THIS.
