    Absolutely. Greed will always exist and evil people will always take advantage of others. May as well lay everyone’s cards on the table.

      Hey, that makes sense. Now, in this capitalist system that exists in real life—the one that you think is working out better than any alternatives you can think of—are everyone’s cards laid out?

        Yes…? We are aware of how bad we’re being fucked. We saw the Panama papers. Rich people dodge taxes with loopholes. War is waged to line pockets. Senators practice insider trading. Huge, major problems exist with capitalism and of course, we can’t know the full extent. What do you think would be different under your preference?

        I’m allowed to go take out a loan and start my own business to be a piece of shit like every other business owner and noone will stop me from doing so.

        Noone will stop you either, question is why you aren’t dealing your cards.

          How would you even have the time to do that? You’re preoccupied picking random fights on the internet. So why aren’t you dealing your cards?
