Fake video lmao. Capitalism is not exploitation. You can practice socialism here if you choose. I’m sure there are thousands of migrants who will willingly take your place.

Lol socioeconomic systems arent religions, we cant “practice” something different, all americans live under the same economic system and have to abide by it’s rules, starve or go to jail. (And yes, it is exploitative)

Imo capitalism is likely the best economic system we currently have, but it is also built on exploitation

It doesn't. Capitalism has built in incentives that take otherwise decent people and pressure them to be exploitive bastards because if they don't, their competitor will do it, take market share and run them out of business.
Capitalism requires exploiting the labor of others and it required enormous violence for original capitalists to wrest the means of production from lower classes in the first place. All subsequent capitalism is built on that legacy. It requires constant growth, constant lowering of costs and minimizing your expenditure on labor. Capitalism can't say "enough is enough". The incentives create bastards out of otherwise decent people, as well as further incentivize the already greedy
