Very appropriate that this was posted on May 1!
A very good and informative video 👍
Great review, Noah! When is the sequel to the manifesto coming out? Is Karl too busy? I've been waiting for centuries.
He's actually quite busy doing something right now. People think hes in grave danger.
Plsss do a video on lenins book on imperalism
Could you do a video on "das capital"
If it hadn’t been written and published, it’s very likely that the Russian monarchy would still exist today. It’s also likely that WWII would never have started and our great grandfathers would still be alive. Lenin and Hitler would not have had their motives to do what they did. The 20th and 21st centuries would look very different.
And we would not have public schools
You are sadly mistaken on one basic point- Capitalism works for one main reason- motivation. Once you remove motivation to increase wealth and comfort production takes a nose dive- "They pretend to pay us and we pretend to work". There is a certain % of people in a society who simply cannot work. It is the producers responsibility to provide for them while attempting to help them to get on a productive path. Wevare failing in this area. Sadly, at least 50% of people who live on the streets want to. They do not want to have to play by the rules. Those Inna capitalistic society who choose to stay sober, get a good education then work hard always succeed and live a happy lifestyle. Four of my 5 children chose this path and are living the dream. The other one took the California socialist path and she is miserable. Show me any society that has survived. old luck.😊😊
What I dont understand is why should capitalist be condemned for making money?
If we we're the ones making the dollar wouldn't we be entitled to that satisfaction?
So what if I don't create the news genius idea, I shouldn't be upset when someone else does.
Βερυ χελφυλ ❤️❤️
the manifesto is a good read, but we should improve regulation instead
You said all the necessary facts within first 15 second.
And that will always be the case. As long as there are humans, power will be sought. Even those which believe in communism. Capitalism is still the gem to drive human achievement. So deal with it, love it, accept it.
I think this video does a decent enough job explaining the ideas of the book but a terrible job of explaining the problems of capitalism. If capitalist are greedy and people are poor, how are the workers supposed to spend more money to make the capitalist richer? With the current situation, do you think Jeff Bezos is happy food and gas prices are sky high? Do you think people are going to spend their last dollar on the latest Kindle or on
groceries?
@@iloveyoufromthedepthofmyheart See, you understand the problem of capitalism…monopolies. Which is why there are anti-trust laws. And the problem is the lack of enforcement, which has led to “corporatism”. Everyone that complains about capitalism is really frustrated with the political aspect, not the inherent economic structure.
Amazon sells groceries.
This guys is embarrassing and is painful to watch. It would be really worth learning some emotional intelligence and rewatching his own episode on stoicism. Also… crisises?
The problem with this is you intersecting your own ideas, contempory references etc
Suggesting the climate issues are cause by capitalism is irrelevant snd not supported by science. Even if it was the cause, it would be the answer to solve it. Capitalism is simply the private ownership of the means of production. It’s liberty and freedom. Communism is state control, and the abuse of personal liberty and individual rights. Since win, do unionists get to decide what is best for somebody else, and who gives them that authority to be a dictatorship? There is no evidence that communism works. In fact the only time communism worked was win the Soviet union made the farms capitalist, Marx Wass, economically illiterate. He himself was a bourgeois parasite.
