7 Anti-Social
Under a capitalist system, the profit motive is far greater than altruism. If people are worried about what’s in their own pocket, they will avoid helping their fellow human beings because they’re concentrating on looking after themselves. People feel the need to put themselves first because they think no-one will be there to help them if they lose all their money.

Zim : Of course the profit motive is far greater than ultraism.
People tend to be greedy.
But as far as capitalist pigs not being ultraistic, that is a
crock of bull poop. Socialists will suffer from a lack of
ultraism just as fast as the capitalists will.
But here's the rub. Relatively wealthy capitalists will be more
willing to share their 'excess of riches' than their impoverished
socialist brethren. (It is difficult to share when one has
nothing to share with.)

6 Danger
Often companies will cut corners in health and safety restrictions, because it costs them less to pay off the families of those who die in industrial accidents. Often staff are not properly trained in certain areas, or provisions have not been put in place to protect them from certain risks. This has often resulted in injuries and sometimes death.

Zim : That is a valid concern. Which is why America created a
governmental entity called 'OSHA'. (Occupational Safety
and Health Administration.) A regulatory body bent on keeping
American workers safe.

5 Undemocratic
While every individual has a single vote in a democracy, in a capitalist system, they have very little say in the actions of government. Greater influences on government than ideology or public opinion are the wealthy. Governments will listen to big business and banks because they fund their election campaigns. They will listen to big newspaper barons because they know that they can influence public opinion.
>>>
Zim : This is another case of the liberal retards deliberately
blinding themselves to fact. Here in the United States the
People do elect the legislators, governors, President, etc. etc.
If 'they' are not responsive to the needs of the people above
and beyond the 'desires' of the rich . . . It would be the
fault of the people for continuing to re-elect the crooks and
thieves. Or perhaps the media for not pointing out the
shenanigans of the crooks and thieves in elected office.
Zim.
