Agreed? And? It still doesn't detract from the fact he has been successful (overall) in business.

How have I idealized it or ignored it? Have you read what I have said or not?

Capitalism needs an overhaul, just not into a communist hell hole.


The very reason capitalism needs an overhaul is because late-stage capitalism is designed to only care or value money. Capitalism doesn't fail when it lets people die of preventable causes. It doesn't fail when it oversteps some arbitrary ideological line. This is the system you defend when you defend capitalism

You've dismissed ethics in the equation, because Trump still made money in his grifts therefore he is successful. Things will only get worse with that attitude

Ya. "Late stage capitalism" is designed to only care or value money. That's why almost every major medical breakthrough in modern history was funded by America. Lol capitalism doesn't fail when it lets people die of easily preventable causes... Capitalism also turns out to be the thing that makes those deaths preventable, and in most cases actually does prevent them.

Let me know when you find a communist or socialist country making anywhere near the medical breakthroughs that American capitalism makes. It's been 80 years, none of these fkers have ever come anywhere close.

Keep sitting on your high horse throwing rocks from your glass house. We'll keep revolutionizing medical practices consistently while you contribute nothing to the world. Yeah, we're the evil ones.

Lol America pays for almost 50% of the world's medical research.

Getting dunked on obviously, China must pay for 200% of the world's medical research. Pinko math

China is the dominant global leader in quantum computing, hypersonic research, astrobiology, supercomputing, and chip manufacturing

How is that? Because they embraced authoritarianism blended with capitalism. They were, at one point, much more top down communist. But guess what happened? They freed up a lot of the aspects of their markets and they propelled ahead every other country except the USA.

Bunch of nonsense. Again, if we are talking about ethical contributions to humanity(which is what we were talking about) America is far in the lead. Literally almost half of the world's medical research.

Astrobiology may be theoretically useful at some distant point in the future lol. That's great. You keep dreaming of your utopia, we'll keep being the leaders in consistently improving pediatric oncology outcomes around the world as we've been doing for 80 years. I guess we just value different things

How many businesses have you started and succeeded with?

I don't even like trump, but I am not delusional.

Sincerely,

Reality

Edit: I guess learning from mistakes is a foreign concept to people like you.


I mean he inherited the equivilant of 440 million dollars at a time when there was 298 billionaires on earth, his starting point was being already one of the wealthiest people to ever exist and most of his ideas failed.

It doesn't change the fact he has been successful.

Again, I don't even like Trump. But I'm not TDS ridden lefty.
