Capitalism

An economic and political system in which a nation's companies are controlled by the super rich rather than the people. Capitalism can be beneficial for producers to innovate in creating new products. Also, consumers can pursue higher-paying jobs to earn more cash to buy more expensive products that they desire the most. Nonetheless, some capitalist countries, such as the USA, Russia, China, Venezuela, and Japan, are being detrimental in the way that they are inflating prices or taxes of products that leads to the downsides of capitalism. Examples are the lack of a Universal Healthcare, below-average minimum wage, micro-transactions in video games, the Student Debt Crisis, increased world hunger, and imperialism in foreign countries to steal resources and to boost economic jobs. Furthermore, if you are born poor at the bottom of the hierarchy, then you are most likely to stay there, unless you get lucky by winning a slot machine at a casino or winning a lottery to get out of the poverty line. To an extreme, capitalism is enslaving workers to their graves in factories without them having enough spare time to be with their family members, but it will ultimately crumble.

As the income gap continues to widen, the rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer. In other words, more poor people will suffer and die under capitalism. Capitalism needs to be heavily replaced by democratic socialism to allow poor workers to share and to control the means of production equally, as well as stealing millions or billions of dollars from the super wealthy businessmen to distribute equally among themselves. Therefore, the 1% super wealthy businessmen will no longer be abusive to poor workers' rights and will no longer continue to sit on their lazy asses doing absolutely nothing to contribute to society.

Capitalism

A system devised to ensure ugly, boring people still get laid.

"I own a lot of property. I give money, that I inherited, to people with ideas that I think might make me more money."
"Great."
"I own a lot of really fast cars."
"Cool."
"I'm a winner."
"Uh-huh."
"What do you do?"
"I teach disabled kids how to read."
"Ouch. That can't pay well."
"Nope."
"Sucks to be you. Would you like to see some pictures of my cars."
"No, thank you. Sorry, I have to go."
"Look what lovely cars I have... I love capitalism."

capitalism

1. The economic system of 99% of the world.

2. The reason you can drive Porsches and Lamborghinis instead of rusty pieces of shit.

3. The only way to be truly individualistic without having to worry about having your organs being cooked on a frying pan tomorrow or the government breaking down your doors and killing your entire family.

4. The only economic system where you have an opportunity to be wealthy instead of shit poor like the rest of your neighbors.

5. The only economic system where society, technology, and the ingenuity advances as a whole.

Socialists like to believe that everyone will do their civic duty and contribute to society, and the people who do not will be punished by people as a whole. But what they don't understand is that humanity will always be greedy, and while they will for a time happily work themselves to death for "society," they will eventually disregard their duties and not work unless compensation is involved.

Communists like to believe that with the trusty government watching their back, nothing will happen to them. But what they don't realize is that one word to come out at the wrong place at the wrong time will get them in prison and beaten and whipped.

Anarchists like to believe that with no government watching their backs, everybody will do the right thing. But what they don't understand is that humanity is a violent species (like all animals) and without a set of governing laws or any set jobs, then we will revert to our prehistoric state and every idea humanity has ever thought of will just be thrown out the window.

Every single economic/governing system mentioned here is a leech of capitalism.

Denture Capitalism

Start-up and later stage funding provided to companies with potential for great gain or risk is typically referred to as venture capitalism. 'Denture Capitalism' captures the fact that venture capitalism is typically funded by elderly plutocrats.

'Sources report that Denture Capitalism kingpin Warren Buffett's interest in Mr. Vokonvov's innovative search engine has helped attract ample funding to the start-up.'

Super Capitalism

A joke started by libertarian socialist political commentator Vaush about how Americans would have already been socialists if socialism "came wrapped in an American flag" and didn't have the baggage that the word does today. Many super capitalism memes also attempt to highlight how regular capitalism restricts freedom of the average individual, whereas super capitalism (market socialism) would not.

The term has nothing to do with Mussolini's supercapitalism which was the fascist conception of modern capitalism as a denigration of an older, better, heroic capitalism.

"Listen up y'all. You've had regular capitalism and all the wealth just goes to the corporations and these fat cats just sit up there at their big ol'... they dont do shit okay- I'm selling you... SUPER CAPITALISM! SUper CAPITALISM is SO invested in private enterprise that every single individual actually collectively owns a portion of the place they work at! You're a McDonald's fry-- chef-man? You work! That's part of your business son! That's you now! SUPER CAPITALISM! In addition... I am SO in favor of market incentives and market forces that I *reject* the private ownership of ANY industry which interferes with the function of those market forces. TransportatIon? Healthcare!? These are INELASTIC MARKETS DUMB FUCK....... SUPER CAPITALISM!"
