The part a lot of people don't seem to understand is that capitalism is a dynamic system that evolves over time. My favorite illustration of this is the game of monopoly, everyone one starts with the exact same opportunity, and at the end all the capital will be in the hands of a single player through the mechanics of the game. That's precisely what we see happening with capitalism in real life. Competition, which is the engine of the system, ensures that some companies win and grow, while others lose. As companies become bigger, they gain brand recognition, leverage economies of scale, and so on, making it unprofitable to try and compete with them.

Exactly, capitalism ends up being just a handful of monopolies owned by the oligarchs as opposed to state owned companies owned by the public.

Exactly what this feels like.

Last I checked, China, Cuba, DPRK, Vietnam, and Laos exist.

lol we should go all the way back to the Soviet soy jack memes :)

This is a quintessentially liberal comment. There is no substance to it, no concrete plan of action that would help anyone. Just fantastical thinking and moralizing. Bravo.

Seems that you missed my point that Canada is moving in the exact same direction the US is. The conservatives here are mirror of Trump, and they're most likely to win a majority in the upcoming election.

Canada's not far behind the US in this regard, so not sure where this railway would lead to.

You could do something meaningful like joining PSL and engaging with the community instead of voting and donating to capitalist parties.
