Except that at those times, you could absolutely compare slave economies to non slave economies, and the non slave economies were healthier

It’s why during the civil war, the north was so much more powerful than the south

Turns out that if you stifle the potential of half your population, lock them in bondage, and assign a significant portion of the rest to watching them, it’s not very efficient. It’s better to just pay people, even discarding the abominable immorality of slavery and focusing on just economic efficiencies.

“it’s slavery when I work for money” ok clown

Capitalism is the worst way to run an economy. Except, of course, all other ways which have been tried.

I’m not the one cheering on infanticide, you fuck

Like I said.

Deranged.

I mean you’re so deranged that you’d paint a terrorist organization which beheads children as a shining city on the hill. Your boos mean nothing to me - I have seen that which makes you cheer.

Ok tankie

Hey, a tankie citing a propaganda rag to apologize for the people intentionally murdering children.

You people lost the plot a long time ago.

Oh, so now you’re pretending mercantilism is capitalism. Pretty typical horse shit.

And no, quality of life is dramatically improving in the global South. Check rates of electrification, running water, and poverty. The facts say that life is getting better for the global poor, so why do you hate them so much?

That kind of capitalism is responsible for massive advanced in the quality of life of people who live in the global South you pretend to care about. I’m not interested in your YouTube propaganda videos.

Capitalism with workers protections and a social safety net is better than anything else we have tried, and you know it.

🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 “north Korea is an example of a well functioning socialist utopia” fucking clown show, go move there then, tankie scum

In which country has that gone well?

Is that why world poverty rates are quickly declining

Idk man modern life is better than life in any past civilization

Capitalism with a social safety net may have flaws but it’s better than anything else ever tries

I’m not a socialist, because I can’t stand authoritarian dictatorships
