Talking like a slavery apologist from 200BCE
How? I'm the one preserving peoples rights here. No one in my country is enslaved. Everyone has basic rights AND we have the freedom of ownership and democracy. Everything convincing point socialists have can be achieved in a capitalist system.
Wrong. Your country has homeless people without a right to housing and your country has unemployed people without the right to work. As for healthcare and education, your country is dismantling those systems in favour of private ones and worsening coverage, and the same can be said about pensions. This is almost universally true for capitalism except for a few countries in Latin America which manage to maintain rights for now (until right wing gets reelected). Now, tell me, what country are you from?
Wrong. The homeless people in my country choose to be homeless as they are offered free housing and community support workers. My country is currently expanding their public healthcare and increasing the salaries of nurses as well as expanding publicly funded gp vists. This is all done within a capitalist system with no large wealth funds and we are not particularly rich as a nation.
You shouldn't speak so confidently when you seem to have no idea of the world outside America.
