    You steal value by creating monopolies. You steal it by artificial controlling resources, your “capital” so that no one else can benifit. You price gouge, manipulate, spread propaganda, and lie. Make dirty deals behind closed doors. Undercut your competition.

    Pro capitalist always leave out all the awful tactics capatilism employs to do things that require you to buy from them. That’s the theft. Gaming the system to put people in hard places. Baiting the general populace to bad behaviors all for the means of profit.

    We shouldn’t be required to play a game of literal monopoly to survive.

    Free market capatilism is a joke. Capatilism only drives invitation of the business model and freedom for the owning class at the expense of the people.

    What’s the difference between feudalism and capatilism when corporations own ever piece of property on this spec of dust and you’re required to rent? Still playing the rules of capital, but without any of the rewards. Think about it. I doubt you own your house. The bank probably owns it just like it owns a majority of peoples. Probably the same thing with your car. Your education. Hell even your life depending on how your health is. People who have to pay 1000s to insurance companies every year just to stay alive. For insulin treatment that was sold for a 1$ by its creator for the good of humanity. Monopolized. You aren’t a capitalst if you own nothing.

    Most people own nothing because that’s the goal of capatilism.

    The perfect company has no employees, sells no product, carries no debts, yet takes from everyone it can. It is the nature of capatilism to shuffle towards this structure.

    The US in the 1989s had Europe and the rest of the world by the balls by being the global reserve currency. A system put in place after world war 2 where Europe basically sold itself to the United States. Everyone had to spend money and buy it in debt while the US had the keys to the printing press.

    When you take out a loan why do they charge you interest? If you don’t pay your loan back they will simply toss you in prison or reposes what meager property you have. Garnish your wages? What incitive does interest serve? It’s just their to keep you paying, to keep you under your feudal lord.

    Somethings just shouldn’t have a price tag and should be owned by the people.
