North Korea, where burger flippers don’t make $15/hr.

So ask them what they think about computer electronics and electronic communication. THEN ask for their opinion on capitalism.

A western progressive libtard reporter asked a communist what the difference was between capitalism and communism.

The old communist said, “Under capitalism, man exploits man. Under communism, its other way ‘round.”

And when they grow up to be actual adults, reality will smack them in the face.

Blame the education system, I don’t believe History/Civics are being taught properly. IMO

how about freedom?
That's the bit they hate the worst.

Talk of "freedom" is a sign of right wing extremism these days. Even "equality" is suspect.

Thats because young adults are lazy scum, and it’s their parents fault for allowing their public schools to mold their kids this way.

When a people’s highest ideal of freedom is who is doing what with their genitalia, so it rises no higher than someone’s crotch, the only thing exempt from “common sense regulations” is sex and whatever helps there be more sex, like abortion on demand.

The above describes too many Americans.

The only freedom many honor is why we’re all so ****ed.

They haven’t been told yet that nothing is free, even freedom costs something. Even slavery is not free. Capitalism entails the recognition that nothing is free and that something will always cost something.

Gen Z just wants free stuff.

They need to go to socialist camp one summer. It’d be free because I and many thousands of capitalists would donate funds gladly.

The same millennials who brag about their side hustle game.

Side hustle used to be called second job or entrepanuerism.

They have a negative view of big business as do I.

Big Business = Big Government

I really enjoy the “Campus Reform” videos on YouTube...It’s amazing to see how these young think they are so smart with their answers until they find out things are completely opposite what they thought...

“Then they need to throw their $1,000 phones, $10 Starbucks drinks, and $200 shoes in the trash”

Yep, but that also shows part of the problem. It doesn’t help that the phone and shoes are made in Communist China, and the Starbucks CEO uses his billions to attack capitalism.

Before I retired, I drove past a bus stop that many college students used to get to school...There would be 20-30 waiting for a bus and everyone of them had their heads buried in their cellphones just like this picture...
