Is Capitalism Saving Us Right Now?

Who’s actually fighting for our rights? It’s not the politicians.

Is it just me, or are there business owners who want to open, and customers that want to get the hell out of their homes and pay for goods and services, who are primarily driving the pushback against a state that’s encroaching on our rights?

I’m not merely talking about a right to open their business. I’m talking about the basis for human rights on a far larger scale.

I’m not necessarily a huge cheerleader for capitalism; but I’ve learned enough about free markets to know that certain things do work, and I think right now we are seeing some of that play out for the better.

You’re probably asking the question, exactly what or who is capitalism saving us from then?

People want to be free, and people want to be able to earn money, because it costs money to live, and it kind of costs money to be free nowadays.

Many don’t realize there is an actual global effort underway to tamp down on our human rights. Several world leaders and other influentials have openly stated that Covid is the perfect opportunity to make some big changes to society. Some of them talk about it by calling at the Great Reset or the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

I write about Economic and Social issues that affect us all, because my country, America, has problems and change is needed now.
