I'm asking you specific questions. You are asking me to read books you have dictated, regardless of if I've read them or not. I'm asking about your interpretation, and you repeatedly ignore that simple, basic, foundational component of a discussion. I'm inclined to disagree what constitutes bad faith.
> There's no such thing as capitalism to me. The things I listed are demonstrably not capitalism
So is capitalism everything you haven't listed? Is the question too broad or difficult?
> Pick one of what? Rights exist independent of society. Society and government trampled on them for most of history. Some guys that led a revolution wrote a lot about this and the self evident nature.
Pre-society your rights went as far as you could throw a rock and defend yourself, or your tribe enforced it. You can call rights inherent all you want, but in practice the enforcability is the only thing that matters. Without society person A can walk into person B's house while they're sleeping and remove person A and now there's a new house owner. The rights and freedoms you describe require that we agree what constitutes those rights, so that we can agree on how they're enforced, through police and courts, through elections, and what rights you have to move from point A to point B, given that without this framework you could get landlocked by others ownership.
> As for your last request, I've done that repeatedly and you've repeatedly resorted to attempts to change the topic.
It would be easier to just copy and paste it than to write something else. You haven't though, or I wouldn't have asked. Please argue in good faith.
> Capitalism and its principles...
Which you won't define
> capitalist societies...
which you won't specify
> and capitalist philosophers have consistently demonstrated the most rapid and prolific advances in ethics and morality in human history.
Easy to claim if you don't have to substantiate it.
If you don't want to discuss the topic, and only deflect everything through vague references elsewhere, then what point is there in you posting?
