Why in the world would you trust manufacturers? Would you analyze the ingredients in your pills? Do you think anyone would?

Why in the world would manufacturers put expensive ingredients in their products if they could simply say that they do? That's human nature.

There was that supermarket chain who took their very old meat, bleached it to get rid of the smell, put a new label on it and sold it. Lovely. I also like companies that relabel their unsold old eggs.

Trust companies? Of course not. They're only human.

Sure, hollow out the middle class of industrialized countries. Where are you going to live? In China? There's really no reason then for upper management to be from industrialized countries either. Outsource CEOs/CFOs etc. to China and India as well.

Libertarians don't have a coherent philiosophy beyond: keep your hands off my money but give me all the things that I want when I want them.

Exactly WHAT is your money? Exactly HOW did you make that money without the infrastructure that you were born into? Even Bill Gate's dad says it takes a village to raise a millionaire and he should know.

Do you think Bill Gates would be as wealthy as he is if he had been born to a poor family in Brazil? Even Warren Buffet acknowledges his luck to be born the person he is in the place and time that he was. He also should know.

Capitalism is a system. Criminality is an opinion.
