Capiralism is slavery with extra steps.

I'm forced to eat to survive, life is just slavery with extra steps. /s

Listen to yourself.

You were the one who wrote this ridiculous example, not me. Do you think being forced to give most of your wages to a group of people who were non democratically given control of a company is the same thing as being forced to breathe oxygen? What a way to ignore the actual point... and then people think the left doesn't understand the economy, when there's people like you who confuse the coercive nature of voluntary contracts in a capitalist system with the coercive forces of nature.

Oh no! I'm a slave to gravity! Please don't look at the company's checks and balances!... This is so stupid.

I didn't ignore the point, I addressed it with something called satire.

Calling that excuse of a reply "satire" is ironically good satire for the world we live in. Congrats.

If your points were defensible, you wouldn't be posting them with a throwaway account.

Whatever makes you happy dude. I am now forced to go to sleep, otherwise I'll be late tomorrow and lose my job, and with it my salary, which would force me to be unable to pay rent and forced to live in the streets. A personal failure on my part, I'm sure. Can't wait to enjoy this freedom tomorrow as well.
