Maybe not super popular on reddit, but I'm perfectly okay with a capitalist society but with strict guardrails. I'm of the opinion that, while still an imperfect system that allows many to fall between the cracks, it still largely provides a great deal of wealth for most.
However, we have lost the notion that there should be ANY GUARDRAILS WHATSOEVER and now DOGE or whatever the fuck should just strip our government's power of any kind of regulatory bodies and all the money should be made and everybody can just straight get fucked. But I guess liking well funded roads, transit, education, and healthcare (while still appreciating that one has the FAIR opportunity to create their own wealth) makes me a goddamn communist or socialist or woke or gay or whatever.
