your thoughts? capitalism is intertwined with jihad
    #26927117 - 09/09/20 08:31 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)

i can't ask these questions with normal people, i get dismissed.  i'll ask here.

i posit that capitalism is intertwined with jihad.  the problem is that, even in a capitalist society like the US with a communist-like base (medicare, social security, food stamps, etc.) ultimately there is incentive for the most cut-throat to feed on the bottom.

in an capitalistic economy, by design, there is only a finite amount of money, right?  if one were to desire to accrue more money, he would have to devise a scheme to acquire it from others.

ideally this would result in one party providing services and goods that others, without the ability to provide for themselves, desire, exchange money for, and both sides benefit.

however, when there is a communist-like base and most basic needs are met, one must CREATE desire or NEED in order to force the exchange.

the concern i have is, and i realize i'm taking this to the nth degree, the medical field, which is quite appropo given the present state of affairs with COVID etc.

so, you have an upper tier of people paying out the nose for education as doctors, surgeons, etc. with an increasing quality of life of society because so many needs are met through capitalistic exchange, right?  what happens when you end up with so many doctors and no need for healthcare.

the concern is:  what is keeping, you know, ultra rich doctors from buying guns, right, or paying people with guns, to shoot people and artificially create a need for healthcare?

you can dismiss me and call me crazy, but regardless, i still wonder how would you engineer this scenario out of the system.  could you invert the communist-like state?  in other words, create a money-less, utopian like level of society for doctors and surgeons in pursuit of eliminating the possibility of a vampiric, self destructive vector?  are there repercussions to that i am not immediately seeing?

your thoughts...

I didn't read any further, but no, there is not a finite amount of money. Money gets created every day.

yes, sure, but i mean that's controlled right?

isn't the very definition of inflation too much money in the system and overpricing of goods because they can get away with it?

wouldn't an unlimited stream of money into the system essentially defeat capitalism right there?  hmm...

I don't know what you mean, but no, that's not the definition of inflation. Inflation is the increase in the cost of goods, or the decrease in the purchasing power of your money, which has nothing to do with the supply of money other than the fact that endlessly printing money is one of the things that can lead to it.
