The main problem is you're dumb enough to think the current system is this thing called "capitalism".
In reality, it's a massively government controlled ponzi scheme controlled by central banks.

>Neoliberalism
DOES NOT FUCKING EXIST
Never existed.
Just a leftist strawman argument that is used to brainwash people.

Nixon cut the gold standard in 1970 resulting in the central bank having absolute power.
This coupled with massive government intervention in the economy is the reason the economy is shit and our generation is fucked.
>b-b-buh muh reagan
he didn't deregulate SHIT
In fact he increased regulations.

Nobody believes in your neoliberalism meme anymore leftists, just fucking die.

>You talk as if you were gifted with logical and cold-reasoning capacities and yet you don’t know even the basics.
HOLY FUCK THE IRONY

Also the IMF is a fucking joke. It's a government organization that intervenes in the market.
and for some strange fucking reason you people claim the IMF is "capitalism" LOL

>What a load of bull. Productivity has skyrocketed since the 80s yet wages have stagnated.
Thanks to america getting off the gold standard and printing massive amounts of money. Wages have stagnated, savings has been destroyed and prices have dramatically risen.

Keep supporting the fed though....

In a free market wages increase due to productivity and always have.


>When you increase productivity you don't decrease the amount of time spent working, instead you work the same amount of time but get more done during.
Not necessarily.
