There is no such thing as “well regulated” capitalism. Capitalism by nature is predatory.

Conceptually I don’t agree, but it almost doesn’t matter at this point. Crony capitalism - untethered to any moral or ethical sense of responsibility to people, planet or animals - has become a destructive force that now threatens our survival.

Well, if you ask us to vote for Biden , that won't change. Crony capitalism was alive and well during the Obama-Biden years. If you're thinking long-term, push people to vote Green so at least the Greens can get the 5% threshold to be eligible for federal funding.

I wish that more people would follow your approach. Besides being a more accurate descriptor of the problem, “crony capitalism” is a much better enemy to rally people against.

Private ownership and wage slavery are two completely different things. No, I don’t believe private ownership is inherently predatory. But wage slavery obviously is!
