>Be Laptop computers>In the past you could change out the battery easily by external unlatching it, put in a new one, and there you're done. The process takes seconds.>Now laptop batteries are internal something no one asked for so now you have to either send your computer away to let some Indians change out your battery for you, for a fee of course, or you do it yourself having to pry open the outer casing of the laptop (anyone who has done this knows it it not easy) just to reach the battery to replace it hoping you don't damage the casing or anything internal. The process takes a lot longer compared to what it used to be plus has the potential to damage your computer.>We are told this is innovative progressWhy do people buy into the lie that Capitalism pushes innovation when it is such a bold-faced lie?
>>523878714>Muh capitalismCommie faggot thread
>>523878714Capitalism hasn't existed in America since we got off the Gold Standard>bbbbbutgrow up
>>523878763Where in my post did I promote communism as an alternative retard.
If we had to wait for degenerate commies to invent the laptop we'd still be waiting.
>>523878714Doesn't China does the same thing? Unless they aren't communist too and all communist countries and planned economies just don't work and never get results unless they become capitalist-esque in the process. Also give up, communism is a dead ideology only discussed in loser circles. The mere fact that you are relegated to the corners of the internet on a shitty thread just proves that.
>>523878832That's not true though, America didn't really become a Capitalist county where it was all about money making over everything and everyone else until the 1980s before that being a capitalist was deragatory the same way as being a communist.. People who think the US was always Capitalist is kind of like believing in the Communist Year One idea where all the history of a country starts now with communism and everything before was bad. It is basically the same premise except now people think the country was always Capitalist and it is forbidden to be anything else when no it was not always Capitalist.
>>523879003Why do you retards think you can only be Capitalist or Communist that's it? No where did I promote communism in my post so please stop being retarded and reading into things that aren't there.
>>523878714How long until you retards figure out we're not a capitalist society?The government gives private banks the right to counterfeit money, stealing value from your dollars remotely, bypassing the need to seek investment capital from people who have money available. Not capitalist.The government at the behest of corporations makes various mandates about "safety and efficiency" locking startups out and creating barriers for ownership of things like cars by artificially raising prices. Not capitalist.The government grants private corporations rights to extract resources from land owned by other Americans. Not capitalist.The government makes certain products entirely illegal for your to own. Not capitalist.The government grants monopolies to insurance companies, utility companies, lawyers by restricting practice within states etc. Not capitalist.
