True but that's another bs part of it like nepotism or getting something because you know someone and not because you deserve it

That is true as well, and more difficult to tell. I think it's human nature (even falsely) to think the cream will always rise to the top. But I think it often does to an extent.

It's possible they all had family members making things super easy for them, but it's not what I have seen, or seen evidence for.

Get rid of lobbying and campaign funding, and you have a LARGE PART of your solution. BRB more winners based on fair competition, less rigged DC and bonus also Wall Street. LOL at bailing out in 2008-09 and calling yourselves capitalists still.

You still probably have to raise taxes some just for maintenance and population growth, the way things are going.

Just lol. Socialism ain't it but neither is capitalism
IDK man, I was born in a third world country, and I made it out of there, made it out of the ghetto here, and into a comfortable upper middle class life. Being in the US is like playing the game on easy mode. If you can't make it, you're probably retarded.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

Dude the middle class barely even exists now. That had nothing to do with anyone's individual merit.

Even if what you said is true, being "retarded " is down to genetic luck. A system that makes people suffer because they drew a bad hand is bs.

This is coming from someone who used to see capitalism as a great tool in advancing technology as it fosters competition. But I'm finally opening my eyes to the inequality of end stage capitalism. And I'm not sure how you can really fix it.
Everyone can see we're at the end stage now, capitalims is doomed to fail. But I doubt the system that will replace it will be any better...

As someone who has profited greatly from capitalism I agree. It sucks out the life from your nation...

I was able to make tons of money by being an outcast and investing, meanwhile my family who have greater moral ideals like raising families and helping the community suffer.

Anyone that thinks you just gotta work hard is retarded. People work hard but they don't have any idea how to make money

Yup, meanwhile young sloots making more money with onlyfans than the average doctor...

Capitalism is a system without any morality.

Nobody in here is saying socialism is great. Thats deflection from the topic.

There are fundamental issues with capitalism because who wins and who loses is based on too much random chit like genetic advantages and who your parents are

There will always be losers, but if you have a system in which losers are largely determined by things they can't control, you have to account for that.

I think America looks down on the less successful unjustifiably

You can't control what you love. The only thing I would have loved is professional athlete.
There are people who enjoy something that is actually attainable, good for them but you can't control your own natural interests

If you're just staying at home,playing video games at mommy's house, then you deserve your fate.

You remind me of those who supposedly workout and bitch about the lack of gains, but they go to PF, and text on their phone, take selfies and lift like ****.
