    Five myths about capitalism

    Thirty years ago, in the face of a serious economic challenge from Japan and Europe, the United States embraced a form of free-market capitalism that was less regulated, less equal, more prone to booms and busts. Driving that shift was a set of useful myths about motivation, fairness and economic growth that helped restore American competitiveness. Over time, however, the most radical versions of these ideas have polarized our politics, threatened our prosperity and undermined the moral legitimacy of our system.

    • why did you just copy and paste like 3 things? No personal insight, just pasta?deathboy
    • and why three posts? Selfish feel good motive? Or something else?deathboy
    • use your own words for once instead of copy pasta to explain why you personally dont like capitalism, you might see its because u like the security a govdeathboy
    • promises you in the same way a church promises usecurity in afterlife or that god is watching out for u and everythign is his will.deathboy
    • deathboy. he is sharing information for others to read. not just talking shit in the notes offering nothing. just fyiimbecile
    • lol. sharing information. i can copy pasta info all day to share. but is their value in that? no. this is sharing bias without even attempting to justify withdeathboy
    • any reason. you see back in the day when some cites others words they work it into their personal arguement to help simplify explanation on complex subjectsdeathboy
    • it also could be used against lazy to falsely give credence through superficial means. But nowadays we just get blind copy and paste as pretextdeathboy
    • of "sharing information" with no idea of reason or goals? ignoring all obvious bias? usually someone with a handle as yours i'd think is in jest.deathboy
    • sharing bias? lol, what are you smoking?monospaced
    • go ahead and copy / pasta then. just shut the fuck up otherwiseimbecile
    • so imbecile your preferred method is too spread the word of others with no understanding or contribution or even statement of reason why?deathboy
    • brilliant!deathboy
    • get that boy a bible!deathboy
    • and mono sharing bias is so obvious... are you smoking something... if you dont support trump do you share articles without own opinions or reason that supportdeathboy
    • him? I'd say historically you could go back and find that you do not. So as humans are they share what is good to them. The natural instinct that capitalismdeathboy
    • thrives on. How markets work. And yes markets can self destruct with idiots sharing bad things as good. Hence every non anti capitalist system who had leadersdeathboy
    • who knew better. i thought it was super obvious. perhaps to explain things you need a little more hand holding to walk you through it.deathboy
    • Hopefully that clears it up or if it doesn't can you try to be more explicit in where it doesn't seem to make sense.deathboy
    • you make almost no sensemonospaced
    • I was just laughing at the very idea that there is something called a "sharing bias" and that you're so fucking triggered by itmonospaced
    • I suggest you work on your sentence structure, grammar and spelling before you even THINK of implying people have comprehension issues. Seriously.monospaced
    • couldn't even copy / pasta correctly. smhimbecile
    • sharing is caringutopian
    • mono im absolutely positive you have comprehension issues because you lack all ability to back with reason what you defend. up there with flyin chariots of firedeathboy
    • imbecile... well i cant say your retort means a damn. Or even has any meaning. It is actually quite inconsequential. hate to state the obviousdeathboy
    • perhaps i shouldn't even state that. a vacuum being filled with pointless comments sucking others in. can a comment have any effect in making someone realizedeathboy
    • they have no stance. can you take the gay out of someone through prayer. can a tiger change his stripes. or is it all simply a biological hackdeathboy
    • i dont think any amount of reason can change you. it is what it is because it can not be any other way than it is.deathboy
    • but still im compelled to try. fully knowing a grocery list of reasons why but i cant seem to change my stripes neitherdeathboy
    • my comprehension is as good as anybody's ... the problem is that you are absolute shit at writingmonospaced
    • I can back up and defend anything I state, and I can do it in a way that is understandable. You, on the other hand, struggle with basic punctuation.monospaced
    • I was only asking what a sharing bias was. You went off on some insanely autistic, incoherent rant, then attempted (sadly) to make it about me.monospaced
    • good as anybodys... really objective mono. but ill give it to you i might seem to be shit and explaining ideas in LCD terms.deathboy
    • I would think a sharing bias is self explanatory like a "pretty sunset". forgive me for presuming too much about what i see as simple communicationdeathboy
    • but again i'll call upon your comprehension skills to try and communicate what confused you? i know my puntucation and grammar had no effectdeathboy
    • the "autistic, incoherent rant" lacked any relevance to punctuation or grammar. if anything, it shows a lack of comprehension and understanding while tryingdeathboy
    • debase it as incoherent. not with reason or merit but that you couldn't comprehend what im talking about. so you write it off. If i don't know what someone isdeathboy
    • is talking about usually i ask questions to clarify. i understand communication to be so much more than normally thought about being in advertising.deathboy
    • but than again i used "sharing bias" in this conversation, which u think triggered me... i triggered myself?deathboy
    • ... Some people wether neo nazis or christian fundamentalists are what they are. People think irrational and dumb crazy shit. thats human.deathboy
    • probably also try and have 2 kids while hoping to save the world driving a prius or tesla, ignoring the fact a new life greatly does more damage.deathboy
    • majority of people are largely ignorant assholes. and humanity is largely only benefited by a rare breed of individuals. i ever wonder if you think such thingsdeathboy
    • and can be comfortable knowing which side you are truely on.deathboy
    • I love how your junior high school educated ass is trying to school someone who has two higher degrees and writes for a living. You really are not good at this.monospaced
    • Your continued insistence that I have a comprehension issue says more about your inability to get across what you mean in a written form, not mine.monospaced
    • Ask ANYONE to read your gibberish, and they will agree. If anyone says your writing makes perfect sense, then they're blowing smoke up your ass.monospaced
    • i dont give a shit mono if you agree. i never expected you to. if you could only even humor the idea of what you know as absolutely wrong in pursuit of your idedeathboy
    • als. you could learn so much. however, i beleive you are not a scholar in such aspects. you are very simple in what you believe and how you livedeathboy
    • i do hardly engage with you because i believe such things. but since your still at and a human id like to challenge to to be betterdeathboy
    • what is the point of life if not to try to better society. Yes i could insult you and feel good about myself but none of that matters to me.deathboy
    • and i'd love a explanation of how your "two higher degrees" mean a damn. I mean after all are degrees nothing more than paper? I truely would lovedeathboy
    • to see how you justify your debt as a sucker to big banks who loaned money knowing it was guaranteeddeathboy
