#do the people who write/edit/publish/approve these articles not hear how insanely dystopian this sounds...#capitalism#reminder this is not a free market#in fact the USA is only rated around the 25th least govt regulated market#and isn't it convenient#how it's the ultrawealthy corporate lobbying groups who are able to influence much of what regulations the USA DOES have 🙄#groups like ALEC that are comically evil - like straight up cartoon villains#Cruella de Vil irl type shit#and they just WRITE LAWS that will make them richer at the expensive of all the rest#and essentially legally bribe the actual so-called lawmakers to push their bills through#that isn't democracy... obviously#turns out the invisible hand is just a giant goddamn middle finger. shocking.#capitalism as a theoretical concept relies on the idea that transactions will be entirely or at least predominantly voluntary#and that both parties in the transaction will act out of self interest#but somehow everyone making transactions out of pure self interest and nothing more#ends up working to the benefit of society on the whole#which doesn't really hold water to begin with but gets even more laughable when you take into account that#it falls apart at stage 1 when you realize transactions can't be truly voluntary if#one party is struggling for survival and the other just wants a 7th yacht
