And your second from the last paragraph is the problem. Clearly there aren't enough people who care who aren't in a predicament about whether they can feed their families.
Regardless of what regulations are put in place short of robbing the wealthy, thereby becoming the supposed villains, they'll always find a way.
Anyway, one thing I've learned over the years is there's no way to change your opinion or mine, not at a deep rooted level anyway. The minute people caring about capitalism falls below the other side, it'll probably be outlawed.
Well this has been a refreshingly calm and civil exchange of opinions.
10/10 would recommend.
