Capitalism really is just a ruse to make a handful of people wealthy. The average person is never going to make it.

I think op is talking about more about the neoliberal / capitalist worldview if u work hard enough you'll make it aka be an entrepreneur,self made millionaire. And if u do certain steps, hustle hard and don't sleep I'll be like the 2 percent that make millions/ well off from their small business etc.

In reality, most will only ever be wage slaves, some will earn slightly more but still dependent on a paycheck from the owners of production etc.. and we know that the one's who make the business tick really don't make what they should.

The media and the general western ideology has made folks believe that they can make " it's with just more effort or more schooling. But in reality ,on average folks just earn to spend and show an apparence of making it and giving the money straight back.

Well with all that in mind, OP needs to complain about the rigging of capitalism and not the economic system itself. There’s always going to be rich and poor and winners and losers unless you force everyone to have the same. And forcing everyone to have the same discourages creativity and ingenuity because the reward remains the same whether you have it or not.

Capitalism with certain safety nets is the best economic system out there and it’s not even close. There was a time in America where one man could go to a factory job and take care of his family by hisself in a house with 1 or 2 cars. Isn’t that making it?

I knew that already but seeing the actual numbers is a different ball game. Most people making lower salaries are never ever going to get there :francis:
There is a time delay. The avg person makes it but it takes decades from when you enter working age . Most people are young and haven't had the time to benefit yet . The only lie about capitalism, is the belief that you can get it quickly, cause most people do not do so .



They key is the "capital" part of capitalism. You must acquire the means of production in order for the system to work. This can be buying a car to resell, a house to rent/resell, business equipment to start a venture, or a stake in an existing business through a direct sale or stock holdings . But it onIy takes time to do this stuff, especially if you start at a lower income level , but it is certainly doable.


Alternatively you can even manufacturer intangible assets like engineering designs, songs, art ,etc. But even this takes decades to carry you, because you must invest in learning and mastering your craft from the artistic asset side, or decades mastering your craft from an education side with technical stuff like engineering designs/app/invention-patents.

Imo, until we figure out ways to harness free energy out of the earth in a recyclable manner the way Tesla was striving for, we’ll always live like this, doesn’t matter what kind of economy. Besides that, we also too reliant on digital money vs real money, man it’s too many issues to really name, at this point live as best as you can and die on your own terms. Them cacs got the game ducked up

That's the point of it few on top the rest on the bottom :dame:.

1. Gotta keep bottom feeders to fuel your workforce reason they don't like unions


2. GOP's purpose play the shyt out of poor white people and DNC's purpose focus on LGBT shyt because it doesn't change the status quo but hey folk get mad at #bothsiders

3. gotta keep that military going easy getting brainwashed I worship ("race" over self ) white guys to take the bullets for you while you make bank.

4. gotta keep the shytty jobs filled easy getting get Mexicans here to do it get Chinese in china to build for cheap while overseas
and just ease their mind by telling both groups they are better then the black man/women and they won't shack up the status quo of capitalism.



We are the only ones are not sold into that shyt don't get me wrong make your bag but as black people we not sold into the American way of capitalism we were the first victims of it.


Remember they didn't mind us around all in their house raising their kids when our ancestors where working for them for free keep that in mind.
