Hi all,

I'm seeing a lot of hate for capitalism here, and I'm wondering why that is and what the rationale behind it is. I'm pretty pro-capitalism myself, so I want to see the logic on the other side of the fence.

If this isn't the right forum for a political/economic discussion-- I'm happy to take this somewhere else.

Cheers!

What?

The only options aren't capitalism or total anarchy.

I’d agree with that, but I was typing my post as a reaction to someone who said they didn’t feel like supporting property rights. So we were already out in the extreme end of the argument.
