Like there's a better alternative?

The commiejew?
The socialjew?

>niggers in jail
>spics in jail

Just as it should be.

State-funded capitalism is pretty shitty, I agree.

>22 empty homes

Then live in them! Oh wait, most of those shitholes are so bad a dog wouldn't shit in it without the entire place falling apart

Pic related is one of those 22 abandoned homes.

>50% of congress is millionaires!!

Really? Successful people go on to do big things. Shocker.

>146,000,000 in poverty

Because we have a welfare state, it pays off big time to under report your income or cut your own hours.

>racist criminal justice system

Coons live near each other when they are poor, white live rurual when poor. City folk (coloreds) have more interactions with people and therefore cops. Whites (rural) don't have much interactions with the sheriffs.

>wages are stagnant

Because a burger flipping job barely produces $10 worth of work per hour. If it produced more the person could expect to see a raise every now and again as they could demand more for their efforts

But hey, I'm sure communism/socialism whatever is better because freebies right?

You mispelled "corporate funded state".

>Really? Successful people go on to do big things. Shocker

To be fair, John McCain marrying into a rich family to bank roll his campaign was pretty successful.

I don't. That's why I'm a national socialist.

This. Socialism and Capitalism both end up with most of the wealth concentrated in the hands of the small clique.

The so called "intellectuals" of both schools, from Marx to Robert Nozick to Ayn Rand, are all Jewish. They all support the same things, open borders, "equality," multicultural society, erosion of Western pillars like religion, families, in favor of loose ties to the state or the dollar.

National Socialism is the only thing by and for the people. You'll never see a jew argue for it.

The USA is not practicing capitalism in its real form.

Corruption is everywhere--legal, state, corporate, and monetary.

The system is going down, and almost everyone in the hard money community knows it.

America will, at some point, resemble Venezuela or Zimbabwe.

You can be traditionalist and still be anti capitalist

>not muh real capitalism
Hi Stefan

This isn't capitalism's fault though; it's your shitty fucking country.

>capitalism has something to do with blacks being in prison
>since there are empty homes, we're just supposed to GIVE them away
>politicians are rich, what a shocker

Also, how is productivity measured? Hours worked? Items produced?

GDP.

By way of reference, a world with no borders would be twice as productive, but you'd see a drastic fall in your wages.

The free market will fix it.

Mercantilism.

>Why do people refuse to acknowledge the glaring flaws of capitalism?

Silly Socialist. We don't participate in capitalism in this country.

We have government sponsored crony Capitalism. Its really no different than Socialism.

No one ever flees from capitalism.

>that picture
Detroit.jpg

Seems like a good strategy. We should all go that route

Crony capitalism is the natural development of the capitalist mode of production. The rich attempt to tweak the system in their favour, acting in their class interest at the expense of the working class masses.

When has anyone crawled through barbed wire, land mines, and search lights to escape free market capitalism?

Propaganda and carrots on sticks. That and most people are too retarded to ever critically analyze what they already agree with.

Instead of fixing the problem lets just fuck shit up - all communists

Where have you been? Socialism has been in vogue for years.

HOLY SHIT, I MADE A COPYPASTA 5 YEARS AGO JUST FOR THIS MOMENT. (I haven't seen this image in years)

>There are 22 empty homes for every homeless person So what does this tell us? It tells us that because it isn't sold yet, owners of it should give it away to charity and lose money on it. >50% of congress millionaires, 1% Citizens millionaires You don't complain about anesthesiologists making ~400,000 per year when the average American makes ~40,000. >Half of the population is near poor or in poverty Your point? If you think this is because of capitalism as a whole, that's simply laughable. I won't even bother with this one. >Productivity rises as The hourly wage is stagnate That's because of the technological revolution. >5% of population, 25% of prison population. How is this related to capitalism? >Racist Justice System! Are you serious'? Are you new? Do you honestly think that's because of racism? >government spends too much money on military Again, irrelevant to capitalism.

those things do not go hand in hand with "capitalism" or else those stats would have been true since the beginning "capitalism" was adopted for every country, which is not true

kill yourself and move to north korea or china the gov will take care of you

Haha fuck line breaks

Zillow in Detroit is a gold mine

In a sense capitalism, as it has been implemented in America, does have a bit to do with blacks being in prison. The CIA running cocaine into black neighborhoods and the ensuing creation of gangs stems on the one hand from the CIA having a financial/power-based stake in using a cocaine epidemic to deflect attention from the scandals Reagan was engrossed in (so that he could continue to privatize and deregulate, in the interests of neoliberal capitalism) and on the other hand those gangs became so powerful largely by taking Capitalism to its darkest end.

However, it certainly doesn't account for the majority at all, and, while gangs are often the catalyst for the destruction of their own people and neighborhoods, its the fault of the people in the neighborhood for not being smart enough to leave/get a better job/go to college etc.

Because the alternative is literally a toothache VS bullet in the head.

Let's be clear. The only place socialism has worked is in Europe in recent times because:
>a) 90% plus White
>b) Little to no defence spending, since America babysits them
And finally
>c) You STILL end up being destroyed by your own apathy and cuckedness, as can be seen in REAL time.

Being poor in America, is literally a long, long list of self fuck ups
>b-but some rich people are fucks! They inherited their m-money...

SO? Did that somehow cause YOUR OWN failures? Cause someone got born lucky?

You aren't entitled to free shit

A picture of Detroit

who ran Detroit into the ground?

>democrats

But they do go hand in hand.

What we see today in the USA is not capitalism failing because of corruption or because it is not real capitalism. What most of Sup Forums doesn't seem to understand yet is that the society in which we live today in not only a byproduct of capitalism, it is literally the ONLY way it can ever be. There is no willy wishy capitalist utopia. Otherwise we would've seen it already. Capitalism, with enough time, ALWAYS leads to the consolidation of power and power brings corruption with it. There is no other way. This is because money exist.

tl;dr
Capitalist are are delusional about their economic system as communist are.

Like I said, a gold mine....

>$100
Hell, you'd be silly not to buy it. You never know what could happen in the future. Detroit might become a place to live again, and that $100 would turn into $400,000. There's a high chance of it not happening, but $100 is nothing anyway.

>inb4 have to pay taxes

>Why do people refuse to acknowledge the glaring flaws of capitalism?

Do you have a better system? No? Then stfu

>having this little understanding of Socialism

I don't even agree with Socialists m8 but come on at least read a wikipedia article

>SO? Did that somehow cause YOUR OWN failures? Cause someone got born lucky?

Indirectly it does.

Pls fix your format, it's unreadable

What are gun laws like in Detroit?

could buy an entire city block and turn it into a compound

> discretionary budget

This is how you know it's misleading bullshit.

I was thinking the same, a good investment in detroit and you can make some dank profits, assuming the city improves

No, it doesn't. The rich doesn't force people to buy shitty ideas. They buy it willingly. Unless they have the responsibility and self-accountability of childern(which they do, but insist on the benefits of adults).

Most of this is misleading, or irrelevant.
There a zero empty homes in NYC or SF, but tens of thousands of homeless live there. Home that aren't where people are are useless.
Ok, that one is actually true, but that's politics not capitalism. Go vote for someone who's poor.

Poverty is relative, just be glad you don't live in part of the EU that isn't Scandinavia or Germany.

Productivity has decoupled from wages due to automation, that has nothing to do with capitalism.

Crime victimization studies show that blacks and Latinos commit proportionally more crime. It would be racist if whites were jailed at an equal rate.

Discretionary funds are like 40% of federal budget, the rest is entitlements. Also the other categories are really the purview of the states, most of the money spent here comes from state budgets.

But that's fucking wrong. Crony capitalism is where people sell their political power and in return create government contracts with the people they made a deal with--Instead of shopping for a better deal.

Take government power out of the equation, and people will vote with their wallets instead of making back room deals.

Here, current listing.

Become a real estate mogul today!

>puts animals in cages than humans

sounds like the system has its upsides

>citation needed

don't worry about it the free market will fix it

Do you know what those homeless people would do to that house?

When you don't earn something, a lot of times you don't take care of that thing the way you should. They would destroy those houses.

>le ebin niggers did it meme
ebin hahah XDDDD
>muh gommunizm
epic strawman bro. troll harder.

As a latino, I can say that the justice system isn't racist. I'm a citizen, go to college there and everything, never been discriminated against and I'm brown as fuck. I just don't commit crimes. Pretty simple.

>National Socialism is the only thing by and for the people
It's just as much a pile of collectivist horseshit as Marxism. Capitalism problem is that most of it's proponents don't care when it fails to support the principles it is derived from. All collectivist economics require human beings to be perfect. Free market principles anticipate imperfection and seek to direct them in a productive method.

The "give houses to the homeless" is the dumbest meme I've ever heard and I hate that it keeps getting spewed.

>what are property taxes
>what are utilities
>what is upkeep of the house itself that homeless people aren't going to do anyway

you guys are cuck homos, we need defense to gget rid of niggers and keep everyone but asains and god tier sothamericans, (not braznigian)

I'm hispanic as well and all you have to do to succeed in America is graduate high school, get a job and not have a kid before marriage. Also, don't commit crimes. It's really easy, I do it everyday.

Okay I fucked up a little bit when I implied the CIA itself flooded the streets with coke but they definitely knew about it and allowed it to happen because it was being directly run by the Contras, who they were backing, to over throw shit Leftist government of their country

Sorry it's been a while since I've reviewed the story.

rt.com/usa/194992-cia-crack-scandal-webb/

Basically it was a double whammy of the ensuing cocaine/crack and in turn crime epidemic deflecting attention from Reagan's own deficiencies but even more important it was a way for allies of the US Government at the time to fund their counter revolution which the CIA was heavily involved with (a lot of the leaders of the Contras were trained at the School of the Americas for instance)

What socialism gets you.

We all know what these threads usually imply.

If you knew anything about global economics and current events you'd know it wasn't a convenient fault of one party to blame, but the coincidence of several factors leading to globalization and shipping of jobs overseas.

Detroit is run by socialists?

>any large locality in the US
>remotely socialist
wew lad

Democrats so yea.

Their policies ran jobs out of Detroit and made them go broke

Those are only contradictions if you think it's somehow supposed to serve you and others who don't work.

It isn't. Fuck you.

Because plebs are more content living with the 0.0001% possibility that they will become the next Mark Cuban someday, rather than facing the 99.999% reality that they'll be the worst kind of slave in the world under capitalism.

here you go, faggot.

You have to pay a shitload of back fees in order to buy the property. Detroit is run by some of the dumbest niggers in America, see for yourself

youtube.com/watch?v=TrFvAiQDuEo

youtube.com/watch?v=XpzRuB-YMpg

They want welfare so, they load a shitload of taxes on property to pay for their gibs me dats.

That's a textbook example of a strawman argument.

Democrats aren't Socialists in America m8 although I agree they're just as shit tier

>Barbed wire, land mines, and search lights

Is it difficult to gentrification an area?
Is it legal to get private security contracters standing on street corners if you buy the whole block?
How does democrat run everything mix with that? Did the constant violence redpill anyone remaining in city hall?

That's not a "capitalism" problem. That's a niggers and jews problem.

Come to think of it, some of those countries were too poor to afford such things.

>You have to pay a shitload of back fees in order to buy the property. Detroit is run by some of the dumbest niggers in America, see for yourself
this

For all the people wondering why Detroit is stagnant. It's all of the back taxes on property that's abandoned.

The niggers running the city are retarded like this, and it's why the city falls deeper into ruin. Like all of the other cities and neighborhoods that have niggers for locally-elected officials. Niggers are HORRIBLE at attracting capital and business investment. This is why a lot of areas are shitty: they cannot attract investment.

that's not a capitalism problem, it's a human nature problem.

You can prove me wrong by giving all your possessions away to those poorer than you.

...

Your miss characterizing much OP. Pure capitalism has lifted humanity from impoverished lives. Think of the feudal agrarian in any society. One bad winter and your family starves to death. No savings, you barely get to purchase new stuff, no luxuries. The poor flee to capitalist societies, not vice versa. Who is fleeing to Mexico?

The problem is the government and the Federal Reserve have rigged the system where we have a corporate wellfare state. This has benefited corporations and hurt individual consumers. Last, your graph about federal spending, if you sum up all the categories you have it's a little over 1 trillion. Our government's budget is 9 trillion a year, so where are the discrepancies? It's entitlement spending. Social Security, Medicare, and Medicade (with some others) account for 70% of the yearly budget. 6 Trillion dollars!! I'm not saying we should get rid of those benefits, promises were made, and taxes were paid. And we also pay about 8% on interest to past deficits, we have big problems. Time is running out.

if we keep getting fucked over by ignorant goyim voting for corporate shills a la clinton, what companies do you think will succeed?

Ethical consumerism is as bad as expecting ethical voting, it would simply lead to corporate propaganda and a pseudo-state of the top corporations with arms in "security services" and horizontal/vertical monopolies on a plethora of industries

>tsarist russia

pick one friend

Because I have a lot of money from capitalism and couldn't give two shits about your peasent ass

>government spending

Hmmm what do all these things have in common, is it like the government or something? Nah it's capitalism, you're right.

>contradiction
None of those are arguments

>During the 1870s and 1880s, the U.S. economy rose at the fastest rate in its history, with real wages, wealth, GDP, and capital formation all increasing rapidly.[37] For example, between 1865 and 1898, the output of wheat increased by 256%, corn by 222%, coal by 800% and miles of railway track by 567%.[38] Thick national networks for transportation and communication were created. The corporation became the dominant form of business organization, and a scientific management revolution transformed business operations. By the beginning of the 20th century, gross domestic product and industrial production in the United States led the world. Kennedy reports that "U.S. national income, in absolute figures in per capita, was so far above everybody else's by 1914." Per capita income in the United States was $377 in 1914 compared to Britain in second place at $244, Germany at $184, France at $153, and Italy at $108, while Russia and Japan trailed far behind at $41 and $36.[39][40] Europe, especially Britain, still remained the financial center of the world until 1914 yet the United States' growth caused foreigners to ask, as British author W. T. Stead wrote in 1901, "What is the secret of American success?"[41] The businessmen of the Second Industrial Revolution created industrial towns and cities in the Northeast with new factories, and hired an ethnically diverse industrial working class, many of them new immigrants from Europe.

Kill yoself senpai

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's stuff to steal.

you think the richest people horde cash? it's not the fucking 15th century anymore, they don't have big vaults full of jewellery and gold coins stagnating. it's all invested, which is incredibly beneficial for the economy. and not just in the USA, it benefits the global economy. in particular the super rich do absolutely not keep all their assets in banks - that's why they're assets, and why it's difficult to accurately predict a net worth of someone worth millions or more. the majority is invested. by letting the rich become richer, their investment in corporations, banks, whatever, leads to growth and EVERYONE benefits as a result. this is pretty basic stuff. there is not a constant amount of "wealth" in the world, it is generated as time goes on. so what if the wage gap increases slightly, if the gap between rich and poor increases. are your wages stagnant? do you not get an increase every few years? do basic necessities not get cheaper, on average, every year? is your standard of living not better now than it was 10 years ago? the answer, in case you're wondering, is yes they do. every complaint you, and the rest of the left have boils down to jealousy, which is pretty pathetic to be honest.

tl;dr : money in the hands of the rich leads to a healthy economy, and a healthy economy benefits everyone.
