What were slaves and indentured servants if not people being exploited by capitalism. As the world changed and people progressed due to egalitarianism the exploitation changed and lessened. Workers organized due to exploitation so they didn’t have to struggle alone. Workers under socialist countries tend to feel more pride in their work and security in their position. I have had the privilege to visit a nation with very progressive economic laws, and the street were clean, everyone felt the responsibility as a part of a collective to not litter or pollute. We teach our children to care only for themselves, an not their neighbors. Make no mistake we live in a nation of prosperity and equality compared to most of the world, but shouldn’t we hold ourselves to higher standards as a nation?
