    Humans didn’t choose it just like humans didn’t choose feudalism. They formed over time as production and technology got more complex, meaning society is bound to change again and again in the future as well.

      Humans have chosen other systems, such as communism. Although that required action and effort, and those systems are arguably worse than capitalism.

      Either way, doing nothing other than removed on line makes it a choice

          Well, I remember Russians standing in bread lines. You’re probably just finishing puberty.

            The wealthiest nation in the world cannot feed its hungry, cannot house its homeless, cannot provide livable wages to its working class. Capitalism is a failed experiment that has failed every time it’s been attempted. And here you are trying to argue for an economic system that you are not part of, you are not capitalist, you are being exploited by the capitalist as much as anyone else. The only difference is that you revere your chains.

            I remember not long ago cars lined up for 10, 15, 20 miles to get food here in the US. And I’m probably old enough to be at least your father, As you lie there in a state of arrested development.
