    I still say there is nothing wrong with capitalism. Decide what service and/or goods you want to sell, start a business, calculate costs, sell your products, make a profit or hopefully at least break even.

    It’s like most anything else, too much of a good thing becomes bad and too much capatilism is mega corporations that care more about profits than customers.

    The mom and pop taco truck is capatilism. But so is Tesla.

      You described markets, not capitalism. You can have markets without capitalism such as worker co-ops or publicly owned companies. Both of which are examples of market socialism

      “there’s nothing wrong with capitalism”

      You sure about that?

      Also you’re describing commerce, which can exist in non-capitalist systems.

      The mom and pop taco truck is commerce. A factory full of industrial equipment and underpaid laborers being exploited to divert the largest share of profits to those who do no work is capitalism. The mom and pop taco truck is closer to a cooperatively owned business and thus is closer to socialism.

      I think you need to spend some time learning what “capitalism” is. That’s not even close to accurate.

      Oh my God, you can’t go against the commy fucks on Feddit. All business is bad and anyone financially successful in business should prop up the rest of the world like a good comrade should.
