    Once you accept the fundamental falsehood that, in a free market, people become wealthy by exploiting others, the dominoes to destruction are very hard to stop. Wealth by exploitation is true in aristocracy, fascism, socialism, communism – and democracy, often. Not in freedom.

        People do love to blame others. Sometimes they’re right, most times they are not... with freedom comes personal responsibility.

        Wealth by exploitation by these political systems encourages this behavior because of no push back by ordinary people. These systems are built precisely to exploit. The apple is in the details.

        But the perception of equality that comes out of the ideology & its so called exploitation could determine peoples degree of being exploited & sense of freedome too,there are different stories tied to the ideologies, wealth by exploitation is also very evident in neoliberalism.

        Socialists fundamentally rely on confused equating of self interest, with greed. But they are not the same thing. Self interest, is what it best for one's self, including family, tribe, clan, etc fractally emanating from that central point. Greed only considers self.

        There is no contradiction, some get rich by playing fair and others don’t. That’s how the free market works. What’s makes it a great system is completion. If you exploit you workers they will leave as long as there is not a monopoly and nowhere else to go.

        Whatever "fair" actually means when no force is involved in the exchange changes from person to person.

        It is interesting the leaders of all communist/socialist states always become extremely wealthy while the average persons standard of living drops, it's almost like a rule In Democracies the leaders exploit their positions for wealth but the average doesn't necessarily drop.

        In freedom, no one is forced to make anything, buy anything or work for anyone unless they choose to. And we need to remember that if someone is working in what appears to be a shitty job, it is because it is better than all the alternatives that person was confronted with.
