I think you've just summed up late stage capitalism.
- giwook 5mo agoWhat a time to be alive.
- Lendal 5mo agoPeople on both sides seem to give capitalism a lot of credit for human traits that existed long before capitalism.
- sigbottle 5mo agoWell the point of capitalism (going back to Adam Smith) is that the invisible hand converts locally selfish behavior to globally good outcomes. The argument is whether or not that emerges. So if your implication was that human trait was selfishness, yes, that is quite the point of capitalism.
