yeah, the last time we played with communism ended up pretty well.

humans are by nature greedy and selfish. hence why utopia via communism dont really work. and why capitalism is showing the most effect

lets start with ineffective regulations, ever spiraling complexities, tendencies to create financial aristocrat class, widening of wealth gap, and the numerous scandals that is the result of this system.

same reason why you want to light a fire. controlled fire/greed is beneficial, uncontrolled...

i have to disagree, does contribution to society only comes through blood and sweat? how about thinkers, philosopher and researchers?

and society in general seemed to be allowing such practise to happen, cause no one actually forced the workers to work for the bosses. you seemed to be under the impression that top CEOs are nothing more than fat kings living off the toils of their corporate slaves.

well, i feel that proper leadership is worth much more than grunt work. in any system you ll need proper overseeing and strategy to direct and focus the grunts below them to a cohesive force.

now the issue is, is this exploitation? a general generally stays out of harms way and direct soldiers to risk their lives. in a war, which is more valuable? i dont think you can assign the same value for a soldier vs a general.

correct, if you feel like you are "exploited" and dont like it, you are free to start your own business and "exploit" others. quotation is that i dont feel it is exploitation per se. slaves and serfs are exploited, employer/employee is a symbiotic relationship

Mac OS X FTW! ofc, we are OT

in case of that overpriced mamak, you'd wonder why no one else opened a more "reasonable" priced store. My uni was totally different, thre was 1 popular mamak where seniors traditionally bring juniors go, then he started overcharging and under delivering on quality. by the time i grad, no one goes there anymore.

its easy to say "pay their dues" but how do you know they are not already being paid their dues?
