| That argument is a golden hammer. It can be used to render any point moot. "People die in car crashes", "People don't have access or can't pay for healthcare", "Student debt is a massive problem", "Home ownership has become prohibitively expensive" "Nothing good has happened because bad things still exists." Sure, good has happened. But I'm pointing out that the "good" part shouldn't be prioritized as an absolute, nor used as an excuse to look away from the "bad things". Read my comment again. I concluded with: > "Market economy" only helps certain groups in certain circumstances. It's definitely not an equitable way of "helping people". On the contrary. The first sentence literally acknowledges the "good part", the second sentence points out that this isn't an absolute and that glaring issues are facing humanity eye-to-eye. Beyond that, I could intepret "nothing good has happened because bad things exist" as another way of you, for whatever reasons, just trying to outright hand wave the very real concerns I've put on the table. In which case, I, for my part, am entirely unwilling to continue this discussion. |
