If there is no reason one cannot simply “step up” and become big yellow guy please explain why they had to build nets around a foxconn factory so their employees couldn’t express their humanity in the only way they had left. The argument isn’t whether you should expect to not get anything from the government, it’s that you shouldn’t be treating the things you yourself were given (if not by another person by God, or the universe, or whatever power you want to worship) as somehow special to you, and try your hardest to take those things from everyone around you.
There’s the issue, you only give a shit about your own country. Capitalism doesn’t care about borders. Foxconn being in China is proof of that. Yes in American capitalism may work well for anyone but America and the countries like it are only a fraction of the people in existence. Unfortunately, and as many capitlist try to ignore, there is not infinite resources. Capitlist argue that by virtue of luck and nothing else a few are entitled to the means of survival for many. Yes it takes hard work to succeed in capitalism, but hard work isn’t the same as success. “keep working and you will be rich someday” is the carrot the few wealthy dangle in front of the gullible masses to keep them running on the treadmills. This ignores the fact that being rich is pointless and pursuing it by depriving others of the things they need to live is abhorrent. Capitalism breeds wealth, but wealth cannot exist without poverty. There is no rich without poor. You can’t pretend away the lives of thousands of people because they aren’t in your country.
