Well, we can just print more money! That's the solution for both capitalism and socialism, works every time.

Don't worry, the predatory bankers that are appointed to the Fed are surely looking out for our best interests, they would never, ever abuse their positions for the benefit of JP Morgan or anything like that, don't be silly

That's how America is now currently $40 trillion in debt! Just shut up and keep printing!

If they just printed it they wouldn't be in debt. The capitalists have successfully introduced a system in which the government has to borrow money from private banks who borrow it from the central bank that prints it. Instead of just printing money, we now print money and pay interest on it to private banks.

Well Elon Musk's companies directly employ roughly 150,000 to 160,000 people globally, Who do you employ?

His money comes from his parents and the government. Also he is a nazi, your argument is invalid.

The companies now being funded by the U.S. government, in other words the U.S. taxpayer, in other words, fucking me?

In other other words, I'm footing the bill for a limp-dicked wanna-be pedophile who's not only not from my country, but can pay to take control of it whenever he wants?

This country, and Elon musk specifically, fucking sucks donkey dicks.

A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.

A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.

RULES:

1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.

2 No Trolling

3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, anti-communism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.

4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.

5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.

6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.
