Hey friends, just trying to get an idea of how people think of capitalism in different communities. What first comes to mind when you think of that word? Is it your national or international retail giants, resource extraction, or logistics companies? Or perhaps your local diner, hardware or convenience store? The black market? Or something else?
i think of it as the most basic and rudimentary economic system.
whenever a more advanced system fails or can't apply, people fall back to capitalism and start trading/hoarding tokens etc.
it's dangerous to let it run completely unchecked. usually societies will implement rules and taxes to make sure basic needs are met and there isn't too much exploitation going on.
