How capitalism works?

Life is not fair. So, we all better understand this first and start getting used to it. The first time as a child that I got beat up by a bully in the neighborhood, I went running home, and told my dad, He told me then that life is not fair, and I better start getting used to it. Of course my Dad went straight to the kid's father and warned him, if this ever happens again, him and his son will be dealing with the police and our attorneys! The man took his son into the house and gave him the whipping of his life!

But, the lesson I learned from my Dad about life not being fair registered to me and I felt fortunate that I was able to understand that early in life.

Money is essential, because even the key essentials to life cost money in today's world. Clean water is not even free.

But money can only go so far in creating happiness and contentedness.

Some of the richest people on Earth are some of the most unhappy and malcontent among us.

Even if you were a millionaire, you can lose everything you own overnight.

My Father passed away about 31 years ago. He gave me a very valuable thought on his dying bed, that I have carried with me to this very day.

He told me, "Son, if you have your health, you are already one of the richest men on Earth- For even If I were the richest man on Earth, no amount of money is going to save me from this cancer that is killing me now". He died a couple of days after that.

My Grandmother and my Grandfather who came from a family of Cotton Farm workers, and bettered their lives through hard work, used to tell me, "When adversity comes, take it all out in hard work."

So, instead of living life feeling inferior to others because of money, and like I was born on the wrong side of the tracks, I have more-or-less tried to keep my self healthy, mentally and physically, and just worked hard all my life in everything I do, as priority one and two!

Democracy is a political system that has no connection with economic equality. If a majority of the voters do not want money redistributed to others, that is a democratic decision.

Vacuous argument fallacy. There currently is no democracy anywhere on Earth. The last such attempt was CHAZ, in Seattle, WA, which ended by dissolving into an oligarchy.

Already created. It's called a republic. The economic system has also already been created. It's called capitalism.
Only capitalism creates wealth. All forms of socialism steal wealth.

There are thousands of styles of capitalism. But real capitalism, with a strong government keeping it in check is the best system Ive ever seen.

There is only one capitalism. There are three major forms of socialism: fascism, communism, and slavery.
You do not need to 'keep capitalism in check'. Capitalism requires NO government intervention. Socialism is not capitalism.

This old stupid argument AGAIN?????????!?

Roads are mostly build by PRIVATE contractors, dumbass. So is the water supply system. A PRIVATE materials supplier provides the fill, base, and top course, and the asphalt, delivered using PRIVATELY owned trucks, and does the road construction under a contract.

Is it REALLY hard knowing that laws are in place to keep you safe in the workplace?

Nothing to do with a type of economy, dumbass. Strawman fallacy.

How much do you HATE the fact that it's hard to poison your kids accidentally by lax oversight of food and drug purity?

It's easy to poison your kids accidentally. Pay attention. The FDA does not produce a single drug.

I think fairness would be the very first consideration I have before I do anything.

It should be the very first consideration before any president, or legislation branch, or Supreme Court makes a decision that effects us all!

So I would say that fairness does play a role in how we should move forward as mankind.
