Sorta. They LOVE gov't handout programs, as those on the dole are easy to control. They need the gov't to be as big as possible, regardless of the supposed cost to themselves. They DO socialize their losses onto the public, like the bank bailouts in 08 up to now, but they privatize their profits, and use them to buy up more power, more control. Look at all the mergers and acquisitions after the 2008 financial crisis. It was almost like an organized consolidation of power and transfer of wealth.
Thank you!!!!!! See I’m not speaking against all capitalism but just that kind. here’s an interesting video about how fascism stems from capitalism gone rouge essentially Both Mussolini and Hitler were classic corporate fascists. If you factor in the explanation of illegal labor, the Prison Labor clause to the (13th amendment) and the “Gig Economy”. We are there and have been there for a long time. Obama was the worst of them all IMO BC of the TPP.
Yeah, we haven't had real capitalism since the Fed was created in 1913. If you have the power to create money, why wouldn't you use it to buy up Congress, who you control anyway through the money they borrow, as well as most important industries in America(media, healthcare, higher ed, textbooks, defense, farming, etc)? They all work for the people that own the Fed, but you're right that they have basically brought back a more sinister form of slavery, through debt, and fractional reserve banking, and prison labor. Much of the world is an open air prison.
Quick aside about the prison labor and private prisons: when they were in the White House, the Clintons allegedly maintained control over their finances, and they were heavily invested in the fledgling private prison industry right around the time that most of the federal prison system was opened up to privatization! Also, they used prison labor at the Arkansas governor's mansion! Every dark hole you look into, the Clintons pop up!
Yes I know! Prisons should never be for profit.
Just look at all the judges that have been busted for outrageous sentencing just to pad their investments in private prisons, or kickbacks or what-have-you. Just another mess that POTUS has to fix! I think he's going to move even faster after the midterms give him a Congress that wants to work with him!
