      Why do people keep misrepresenting capitalism as some silly boogie man? This is just as stupid as people claiming socialism is innately bad.

        Because most people don’t recognize a fundamental difference between capital “C” capitalism (the economic principal of supply and demand. and “venture capitalism” which is about speculating on a business’ future based on what essentially amounts to a magic 8 ball.

        Because people don’t understand what the word means. They just want upvotes for saying capitalism is bad.
