So just to be clear I'm pulling this out if my ass, but I'm gonna go and say the main trick to be rich is to be born rich. The lack of morality is just a side-effect of your parents being capitalist vampires. Being a psychopath in itself doesn't give you a business edge.
I personally know a few kids born into families for the sole purpose of their parents getting more pocket money from the government and they made millionaire by their 30s and are all nice. Stop equating america to rest of the world, thanks.
Nope, social inequality and class warfare is not just a US thing. Congrats for having rich friends though I guess. Also please stop equating the US with North, Central and South America, thanks
Wow its as if there are more countries than usa and more forms of capitalism than the fucked up one usa citizens allow themselves to be governed by.
So where's that magical place of humane capitalism where everyone truly has equal chance regardless of their social background, and nobody buys items made by slaves in the third world?
By your loaded question and moved goalposts every place in the world is a dystopian shithole of eternal damnation and torture. But europe comes close.
Meh, Montreal is full of French expats running away from France's rigid social ladder and the far right is strengthening all across the old continent. I do hope Europeans aren't all falling into the trap of thinking they're all good because some other place is worse.
Oh yes we absolutely have our own fight as a society to inform other members of the society to keep being moral and not voting our freedoms away and to deal with the impending russian invasion, chinese fuckery, climate change and to not loose the social safety net that gives people social mobility. If anything trump might have been the best thing to happen as it is giving us the evidence that far right is evil and destructive.
Trump sure is a wake up call in Canada as well.
Tons of research says you're wrong. Psychopaths and other people with mental issues that diminish their ability to have empathy are absolutely more successful in business than their counterparts. Because capitalism is could, cruel, and uncaring about anyone or anything.
Tons of research say the opposite as well so there’s that.
Where?
Same place as the others
