Two thumbs up.
Was the poster posting this out of admiration or being annoyed? OP please.
I agree thumbs up. It was reading the Road to Serfdom that first introduced me to that kind of point. Amusing that a Rev Lefter would find objectionable one of the key insights that helped get rid of my totalitarian leaning mindset.
Is there a link to the thread this was in?
Can’t find it now in that huge forum with so many sections, so now this statement becomes purely testimonial with no evidence.
Argh! There was a response in there, which said that capitalism requires people to believe in benevolence of the employer in getting your paycheck. Trying to find that thread with little success.
(Before anybody asks, I just go there to see what is the other side of the whole Maoist insurrection story in India. I had no idea the whole Operation Greenhunt was so violent, with gross excesses from both sides. Mainstream media doesn’t report it.)
