Whole Foods' Co-Founder John Mackey: "Why Intellectuals Hate Capitalism"

[Edub]

Gon need a lot of water burning in hell tho

 

[Edub]

the biggest opponents to limitless capitalism are people raising actual problems with numbers and facts, not intellectuals saying that it unfairly uplifts commoners out of their lowly status. americans dont even have a history of nobility to draw from. what kind of fukkboy shyt is this?

They know they're getting ready to get put in check one way or another...so he's finding some phantom antagonist to blame...where is American aristocracy at

 

[Edub]

This guy is the classic example of the out of touch corporate exec., he's part reptile...these guys defrauded thousands by overcharging customers on the weights of there produce(and they're already expensive as fukk)...LITERALLY ROBBING PEOPLE...then when they get exposed they come up with some half ass apology for stealing from consumers. And THIS SIX DOLLAR WATER SHYT...BANANAS...the same intellects he's talking about wanting to control society and feel larger in the socio dynamic are exactly who these post grad school business men aspire to be. HE IS APART OF THE CONTROL WANTING PSEUDO ARISTOCRACY THAT HE's TRYING TO DEMONIZE





We know better bihh

Is socialism against human nature?

How often do we hear it said "It's only human nature?" And mostly about an anti-social piece of behaviour, as if it couldn't be avoided? Curiously, it is not often said about the best things that people can do. On hearing that someone has risked their life to save another, for some reason we are not inclined to say "Yes, it's human nature."

Mostly, the idea of "human nature " is a reflection of a divisive society that is incapable of creating a decent life for all its members. This failure is then rationalised as a pessimistic view that all people (mainly other people) are inherently selfish, greedy, and lazy. This view has been used as an objection to socialism, in which all the bad examples of human behaviour under capitalism are called upon to say that a society based on equality and voluntary co-operation is impossible.

"School Bus Drivers should be the superintendents simultaneously"

School bus drivers don't work in schools. Try again.

1. Are you aware of the student debt crisis? Do you know how much it costs to go to University? How many poverty stricken professors have you heard of? Education has historically been a luxury afforded to the elite, because peasants had to worry about putting food in their mouthes as opposed to the learning the latest philosophical treatise. Most intellectuals throughout history have come from the aristocracy. It was in fact the gains capitalism brought our society that allowed the average person to be freed from the constraints of basic necessities and pursue education..

Yes it's the college professors making 80-120k who are the true bluebloods of the world. Actually there's a problem with adjunct professors having to work at 3-4 schools to get by. Should high skill professors be in poverty because you don't like what Chomsky says? It was technological gains(namely the printing press) and the economic burst Europe received from the rape and pillaging of three continents that allowed more people to pursue deeper academic disciplines. How has opening up the university to the free market, ie for profits, effected the student debt crisis?

True, it is amoral.
The real question though is whose morals should scarce resources be allocated in accordance with?
and why?

Moreover, i find this whole 'moral base' argument to be empty... unless you are suggesting an objective morality.
In which case i am all ears
