I look forward to the day when I see Che in a double-breasted suit, puffing on a cigar and drinking fine liquor while sitting in a plush leather chair at a country club.

Nah. It's not what you own. It's what you do. Bill collectors, landlords, oil men, military lifers etc...Originally posted by snoopy369
To be a capitalist pig dog, you have to either own 10% of a business, or get "profit sharing" equal to the cost of a steak dinner.
I drank beer. I like beer. I still like beer. ... Do you like beer Senator?

So a plumber in the military is not a "worker"-- Nor is an oilrig worker?
Holy arbitrary distinctions batman.....

Mad Monk, you don't need money to be a capitalist. All you have to have is the desire. What does that have to do with me eating fruitloops?Originally posted by The Mad Monk

With nations it's easy to say who are the capitalists. With people you know if you know them. You can't say someone is a capitalist because they own things. I don't know why that should be weird. Maybe weird is good then.Originally posted by Arrian

Dude, you didn't expect that answer from Kid? It's not obvious to you yet that Kid's entire philosophy is "I am good; anything that immediately deprives me of money is bad; anyone who has more than I do is bad", with no thought whatsoever about the actual system?Originally posted by Arrian
You're a really wierd commie.
-Arrian
Kid isn't a commie. Kid has no coherent ideology about how the system should work; he's not intelligent enough to even understand that there is a system, and changing one part of it can have far-reaching consequences. Kid just latched onto the idea that "communism means I get more stuff and bad people get less stuff".Comment

So no criteria then ??? It seems like you are saying that "you know one when you see one?"Originally posted by Kidicious

I thought "ownership of the means of production" WAS your criteria for being a capitalist?Originally posted by Kidicious
You can't say someone is a capitalist because they own things.
Instead it seem you are using some sort of ill-defined test of a person's support for or opposition to an existing capitalist economy???
I'm just trying to understand. If a person works for a wage are they somehow disqualified for the exalted status of "worker" if
1. their employer gives them company shares
2. they make too much money
3. they work in an industry you don't like ( ie military lifers or oilmen)
4. they like their job
5. They question the half-formed idea of a utopian society you present in semi-coherent form on this boardYou don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto LuongoComment
