But sweetie the point is that mercantilism is outdated and unworkable at the scale we are at in this century. It would be literally impossible for every individual to begin with a set of resources with which they can produce a marketable product, by their own labor, that generates a profit strictly their own. The vast majority of people will have unrecognized potential to develop because they will be beset by such circumstances. They therefore need a structured system to help them get situated… and in capitalism, that means becoming a wage earner… precisely what we are trying to avoid.
We cant all make a living selling ceramics we made in the backyard. That worked in 800, though.
Now, you understand the difference. The irony was that the entrepreneur was emancipating himself from the feudal rule and obligation he had. This is precisely the spirit of marxism here, only appearing in a different form.
Now again I’m showing you THE fundamental contradiction in capitalism; it cannot be realized by everyone by virtue of the fact that its functioning, at all, DEPENDS on it not becoming realized by everyone.
You cannot have democracy here. You can have lemon meringue pie though.
That post was supposed to be before yours but since I’m on a phone, I spend as much time correcting typos as I do typing… which means I essentially post twice per every one post. See even this post has taken mention minutes. Me ten minutes, I meant.

about how you were able to lift yourself and prosper
with the help of our structured system

props for linking up prof. Wolff., he is good but too critical of capitalism, though not an insane charlatan goon like Peterson is. LOL at the guy linking up Jordan Peterson…haha, typical brainwashed Yank cunt who still believes markets will fix themselves, corporations are made up of high IQ and hard working good citizens everybody should be thankful for and all socialism is bad and leads to genocides and dictatorships whilst ignoring the origins of both the World Wars, slave trade, ongoing African exploitation and so on and having nothing to say about what capitalism can lead to… I am big time into Marxism myself.
