Agreed, people are getting incredibly weird about capitalism.
Capitalism is:
"an economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state:"
We have runaway capitalism bordering on oligarchy. The problem isn't individuals that want to work a little harder to make a little more. It's the super rich hoarding everything and a government supporting it.

@AnnFromMEandMA@mstdn.party @jenniferplusplus@tech.lgbt But, capitalism isn’t a political system. It’s an economic system that has convinced a political system, democracy, that they are one and the same.
