Do you believe in capitalism?
Capitalism generally produces more overall wealth in a society, since person are free to buy, sell and make profits.
but would you say that capitalism hurts the poor or makes the poor poorer? does capitalism make consumerism worse?
i think the argument against the poor presumes that capitalism is a zero sum game. kind of like if brazil beat argentina at football or soccer, one team has won and one has lost.
i do think though that in the future, we might move beyond capitalism.
