I’m not anti-capitalist; it has done a lot of good for the world. But unbridled capitalism, untethered to ethical considerations, has done great damage too. It helped create the problem and it is not the answer now. This isn’t about profit for anyone; it’s only about saving lives

Sorry Marianne but the record of Capitalism is abysmal. Genocides of native people, two world wars, colonialism, ecocide, child labor, imperialism, institutionalised racism, tyrannical multinationals, huge income inequality, patentism, inhumane money mentality etc Deserve better.

Profit in capitalism comes from the exploitation of wage labor & the free-riding of unpaid labor, culture & nature that concentrates wealth, and thus power, in fewer hands. Why do you support that? Check out David Harvey when you can - think u maB confusing Capital with markets.

Capitalism has been a plague upon humanity, which would have fared much better with a cooperative economic system that did not generate self-extinction. Understand The Fruits of Civilization (790 pages, free online book): ishinobu.com/spokes-6/
