Thank You Capitalism and Sweatshops For Helping the Poor

So many don’t understand the abject poverty some people live in nor his points.
If you are making 1.50 per hour and working every day in a place where where many are lucky if they can earn 5.00 a day then by the local standard you are better off.
I would wager most who complain are college educated brats that had their tuition paid for.

cant save the world but since we are not in zero sum capitalism anymore most of these arguments are not binding. we havent been in zero sum capitalism since bretton woods collapsed in 71, its just made more apparent now with crypto. anyone here want to organise and do constructive things?

Does this man understand the concept of limited government?

Some regulation to make workplaces safer, and limit work hours is not Socialism.

He schooled those kids so hard, they're still crying in bed huggin their pillows.

Why saying the truth becomes more important than anything this days. Young kids needs to learn about this. Right now. But they're been endocrine in schools that capitalism is evil. WTF... this is absurd.

Come on, Yaron. Why do you think the range of available alternatives for sub-poverty wages are so crappy in the first place? Are we to ignore the English Enclosures-model of land expropriations carried out by Third-World states that drive peasants off their land and coerce them into the wage labor market? Don't they also play a major role in enforcing draconian restrictions on labor organization, taxing their own people to provide subsidized road and utility infrastructure to offshored foreign industry, turning the peasants' confiscated common lands into industrial parks, and enforce the anti-market "intellectual property" laws without which the Nike model of outsourcing everything but marketing and finance would be impossible? Western employers are engaged in parasitic activity, profitably selling crutches to people whose legs were broken by their partners in crime.

So that these workers can't earn enough to afford to give their kids dental care, like Millie Bush in _Atlas Shrugged._

Seriously, Objectivists have engaged in "nerd hermeneutics" regarding just about every passage in Rand's novels, but for some reason they don't want to discuss the Millie Bush story and try to argue that it doesn't show Rand's negative view of children.

Yeah, same way we’d thank the feudal aristocracy for “creating” all those farming jobs by “giving” the peasants access to “their” land. Same way we'd thank the nice folks at Gosplan and the industrial ministries in “providing” all those Soviet workers with factory jobs.

[NewSocialistEraVideos]

Keep on posting videos just like this Yaron! It's just more proof on how economic rightists really don't mind taking advantage of less developed nations to get what we want in the first world and somehow paint that as
Gee, I can't wait to see how the responses to this comment will be like...tee-hee-
