Hey friends, just trying to get an idea of how people think of capitalism in different communities. What first comes to mind when you think of that word? Is it your national or international retail giants, resource extraction, or logistics companies? Or perhaps your local diner, hardware or convenience store? The black market? Or something else?
We should update it. The wealthy are above soldiers and police with bail out money or just taking a private jet to a private island without laws.
Heck, some fucks are so rich they might actually stand above the ruling class. Which is logical considering the only thing that does matter in capitalism isn’t who you are but how much wealth you hoard.
I was just thinking I’d love to see this with a modern cast of characters.
I always loved this illustration
