Nah, that's not true. Capitalism is quite OK. Wouldn't want anyone else but myself to own the fruits of my own labor.

@stevenroose @selfsame you shouldn't pay any taxes then. That's your labor paying someone else's healthcare, transports and retirement benefits!

@falt_ @selfsame Well.. I think we should help out those lesser off. I don't think we should be coerced into doing so, though.
Modern democracies call themselves "solidary" while the vast majority of people would pay way less to the state if they weren't coerced into doing so.

@stevenroose Like I said, i think Takal really lays out the fallacies in this tech utopian vision of capitalism and the role of charity
