| That's an example of Capitalism in America, and if you haven't noticed, we aren't the best country when it comes to economy. |

"People in sweatshops work hard so why don't they have a lot of money"

Then explain how they are benefiting from their work as the years go on. The 1st year, the workers walk to work. The next year, they ride a bike to work. Eventually they'll have a car.
This happened in Japan, Korea, Currently China, soon Vietnam and on and on and on. |

| they're not getting their part of the work that they deserve, only through years of struggle for small raises and large massacres do they eventually get what they want, don't you know about the huge massacres and murderes that went on during the late 1800s and early 1900s for small things like the 8 hour work day, weekends, sick leave, getting rid of child labor, do you realize what you're saying? "if you wait a few years you'll start seeing a slightly larger fraction of your work going to you". Pepper, you really really amaze me, are you really that ground to your ways you refuse to achnowledge the corruption and how disgusting the capitalist system is? |

| of course not, he lives in a privileged gated community, his dad makes 260k a month and he's always gotten everything he's ever wanted, he has a servant to wait on his every need, that's why he's so blind to other's plights |

| Mango, I'd like you to show me how capitalism is so 'corrupt' as you say it is. All alternatives are now in the trash-heap of history. In 60 years, Japan went from a nuclear wasteland to a technological paradise. |

how was the infastructure built? don't tell me they were communist before....
pay attention to history, pay attention to the present, the only reason socialist nations have failed was by being oppressed by american imperialism, Nicaragua, Cuba, China, El Salvador, Iran, the list goes on, not to mention the democracies squashed by imperialism that weren't explicitly socialist, only freeing themselves from imperialism, how can you refuse to achnowledge these facts? |

Apparently American 'imperialism' is working a lot better than your filthy socialism.
You call it imperialism, I called it enterprise.

| it's working better because it persecutes smaller and weaker nations and forces them into slavery, so what now, you say it's okay to hurt weaker people if it's good for you? |

pepper: a mugger puts a gun to you "your money or your life" except in this case, he leaves you with just enough money to survive and makes you his slave, your choice is to work for him with no dignity, no chance to advance yourself or starve/get shot, yeah good options.
