You don't even know the definitions of the words you're talking about. Capitalism has nothing to do with owning other people's labor. You haven't completely backwards. No one's making you work for someone else. Capitalism doesn't force you to work for somebody. You are free to choose to work wherever you want and you are entitled to the money you get from the labor you provide. That doesn't mean you're entitled to ask for whatever sum of money you feel like earning.

I'm not free to just go work where I want. I can't just rock up to a beach selling buckets of sand. I can't believe how delusional capitalists are. I CAN just quit my job, but I lose my home and go hungry. I can do some slave wage work, but I lose my time , energy and dignity, and my home. Its such a asanine thoughtless thing to say you can just become anything and get rich by choice. I am 100% sure you make lots of money by exploiting others. Its the only way you would be able to believe such a thing.
Yes you are and yes you can You're just not entitled to make a billion dollars from it.
Nobody should have a billion dollars. That would make everyones standard of living extremely high. Only the very greedy ignorant, and selfish would opposes such a redistribution of billionaire wealth.
Why shouldn't they?
There is no legitimate argument for why people shouldn't be able to have an amount of value. Anyone trying to dictate how much value a person can hold is a supporter of tyrants or the tyrant themselves.
Sounds like you're just a lazy bum who thinks he's entitled to a "living wage" for just existing and not providing anything to anyone else. ie You think your entitled to the labor of others.
It sounds like that to you because you are reductive and can't think properly. I blame propaganda.
If children are going hungry and shoeless (as millions around the world do) , is that because THEY are lazy bums?
Capitalism fails when it fails children. It fails humanity. I don't care about your financial arguments, Children shouldn't go hungry because of a system they were born into that selfish adults obsessed with wealth have failed to address.
You realize the poorest people in CaPiTAlIsT USA are far richer than the vast majority of the rest of the world right? Our poorest people are still in the top 1% on a global scale.
