  • Corruption is nominally illegal under most Western systems although economics does favour those with the money for their legal defense.

    what i meaning is more like, lets say you give some place money for some public service, like public transport. And then the guy who implements this service/ leads the service/ is responsible for it, takes half the money for themself and the uses only the rest for the service -> corruption In capitalism and privatisation, a private company has to do it, and like some percentage of the money goes into the pockets of the owners -> appearently fine

    sry writing this i think this might not be what corruption means as word, but maybe more like embezzelment? not sure


  • but you have to understand that if you dont like please these companys and make the working conditions like good, that they will just leave to some other cheaper place 🙃🙃 (I am pretty sure that is like the argument i am always hearing, that it will be too exspensive for the companys)

    Like as if some other place will not always be cheaper and easier to be used to produce stuff, and as if maybe one should not be blackmailed by the greed of the investors, and as if maybe the problem would be like something else (capitalism)



  • capitalism basically is just making corruption legal and acceptable and acting like anyone could become the next person profiting from it.

    while the non-capitalism examples are like alomst very autharian regimes, in which it was never really like that stuff is owned by the workers and all that, but that they were working for basically whoever was in power/ held positions of power.

    (and to be fair it (capitalism) made planning easier, since all of this happend in a time without the information technology of today)

    or atleast that is how i see it, but it i have no deep education in this so i can be wrong
