you have to incentivize people to work

if people are going to show up to work knowing theyre going to bust their ass off, be under paid, and be abused by capitalist bosses, why not sell drugs?
Because you don't have to work to get rich, just pay your rent, etc. Selling drugs harms others. If you do that because it pays you better than working at McDonald's and don't care about the harm you are causing then you're a scumbag.

You indulge in fantasies that there's an economic system where everyone is paid well with minimal effort and get a long list of great benefits. But the greedy capitalists are keeping us from it.

The reason there's plenty to buy in supermarkets and other stores and people have money to get what they need is capitalism. If you want more than that then get busy coming up with something that people will want to pay for and you can enjoy the benefits of capitalism too.

You seem to forget there's not one country on Earth that's practicing strict socialism and is prospering. Not one. If what you have to offer works so well then go to Africa and convince them of it so that they may start prospering. Put your money where your mouth is. Instead you want to destroy everything that does work.

It's better to be poor than to ever sell drugs. Period. Says to me when you talk about easy money your whole deal is envy and resentment of the rich. Grow up.

@BrownFlush how's that for an essay instead of just ignoring it?

One company in Spain doesn't make Spain a socialist country or even a mix of capitalism and socialism. And we aren't talking about strict capitalism. You don't want anything to do with capitalism. So where are these socialist paradises?

then it goes against your point.

find me a pure capitalist country! or can you not? lol
I never said any country is purely capitalist. I'm saying, repeatedly, that you want to completely get rid of capitalism. You want a socialist world. So tell us where they have successfully practiced socialism? Do you actually have anything to back up the BS you spout?

Those aren't socialist countries. And the three European countries cited have screwed themselves trying to implement socialism. Hell Italy just elected a conservative prime minister for the first time in decades because things have gotten so bad. Don't you know anything about what's going on?

If America is socialist then why are you always ragging on it for being capitalist? Are you always this confused? Do you know which end your poop comes out of?
