    Are you able to live comfortably without working for the foreseeable future?

    I’m pretty sure that’s just a strawman version of capitalism. Plenty of capitalists who had their life’s work taken during a communist revolution and were at best told they could come back as a manager worked plenty hard. Didn’t save them.

      No, capitalism is the system that creates this. Capitalists are the ones living comfortably at the top of their piles of money while we work to make them that money.

      And yes being a capitalist didn’t save them from having to work like everyone else, boohoo evil commulism.
