If the alternative includes the capitalism I grew up in that's not true - wages hit 63% of GDP in 1973 and fell ever since.
-
The capitalism you and I grew up in has delivered wealth to all beyond the dreams of anyone in previous decades.

Your notion of "poverty" and the rest of the world's notion of poverty (and previous generations' notions) might be rather different.

Splriing hairs Julia. You no he's right. And you are WAY out of touch.

-
I've put my glasses on. STOP SPLITTING HAIRS Julia. He is right. Ok??

If by "everyone" you mean Western Middle Class white people then you're dead right Julia

Nobody is questioning capitalism. It's Laissez-faire, no rules, no safety net, capitalism, which is an obstacle to wellbeing.
-
I am questioning capitalism, as it happens. It is a horrendously inefficient method of allocating resources.
-
When allocating capital it's reasonably efficient. Not for other resources like environmental, natural resources or communal infrastructure.
-
For example the carbon credits fiasco. Or air travel.
