Replying to Lucky Kite

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.

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.

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.

Capitalists determne how much value people can have. Have you looked at the world today? Can I have all your money? Its a value I want.

What you are talking about isn't capitalism. It's central banking

Because greed is a sin. Look around the slums of the world. And ask yourself if they deserve it.

Why does the amount of money you have, have anything to do with greed? They have that money because they earned it.

If I put a gun to your head and say work for me for free for the rest of your life you are free to say no.

Is your defense of freedom under capitalism?
