:mjlol::mjlol:

I want to hear @Matt504 fight his wife. This dude asks the most cutting questions.

"Why were they searching for gold? :mjpls:"

The shyt doesn't even have to be answered and @DEAD7 knew he was wrong
:gucci:I didnt(and don’t) see how it’s relevant… I clearly argued it wasn’t capitalism due to a lack of property rights what does the pursuit of shiny metal have to do with anything.





Edit: is the argument that the pursuit of riches is exclusive to capitalism?:mjgrin: If so we will discuss…

Virginia Company - Wikipedia

Since the Virginia Company was owned by individuals, not the State...I think it's safe to say that America was Founded on Capitalism and the Africans were enslaved for capitalist reasons
The Virginia Company was an English trading company chartered by King James I on 10 April 1606, with the object of colonizing the eastern coast of America. The coast was named Virginia, after Elizabeth I

:heh:If you say so…

edit: a few googles later and they used the head-right system.

The headright system was created in 1618 to get more ppl to be settlors.


Regarding the Virginia Company:

The company's shareholders were Londoners, and it was distinguished from the Plymouth Company, which was chartered at the same time and composed largely of gentlemen from Plymouth, England


Think of it this way...the State of California may charter you a business license... but you own the business.

Capitalism with a capital C :wow:
