That's a cheap low IQ tactic. I don't need to have a fully formed alternative politico-economic system, ready to deploy tomorrow, in order to critique this one aspect of the existing system.

Alternatively (and I understand that this is unintelligible to Americans), I have a social conscience, and socioeconomic structures that exacerbate the already destructive and divisive civilisational landscape that we are currently suffering with bother me. I want my fellow humans to live in a world characterised by justice, fairness, compassion, and kindness.

For whatever it's worth, I have an MBA and I own two successful businesses. But if it makes you feel better telling yourself that I'm just a barefoot hippy railing against the establishment, go right ahead.

No, it's not. Some shit in society is so unredeemably depraved that excising the cancer is the only meaningful solution.

It's fundamentalist capitalist bullshit that the fuckery in Wall St is somehow a necessary component for our way of life. Fuck that, and fuck you.

This is the internet.
Link please.

Two wrongs don't make a right.

But three lefts do.

I think they mean sink.

What the fuck is wrong with Americans? The moment anyone says something as benign as "let's all agree to be nice to each other" you lead poisoned fucks start screaming some shit about communism. No wonder your country is descending into a socio political shithole.

While I accept your point, I feel it necessary to add that the problems you are referring to, excessive cost and poor quality, are American problems. The rest of the civilised world has low cost or free healthcare and doctors that aren't ground into apathy by the capitalist machine.

So the rest of the world would like to be cautious because we like what we have. Unlike Americans we do have something to lose.

The fuck is wrong with Americans that they see everything as a tax.

Situation: The government wants to stop producing a currency that costs almost three its face value times to make and distribute.
Americans: THIS IS ANOTHER TAX FUCK THE GUBBERMINT AMERICA FUCK YEA RA RA

You people deserve the absolute shitfest that your country is about to become. Your broken politics and collective idiocy have paved the way for the coming storm. I for one am going to enjoy watching your oligarchs burn your house to the ground.

Wow, this idea is dumber than anything I expected to see in this thread. And I came in with low expectations.

Well at least we're being honest.

I guess the option of ensuring that the playing field is level and companies don't tilt the board in their own favour by bribing regulators is out of the question.

The US government has as tight a grip on media narratives as any other despotic regime. It's just they have better PR about it.

As for killing democracies and engaging in genocide, well the US has been involved in more of that in just the last two decades than China has in its 2,000 year history.
