As I understand it, and I said I don't understand a lot about money but I've picked up a few things, it is the enterprise that creates the wealth and if there is no capital there won't be an enterprise so it is the capital that creates the wealth.
That is the propaganda version but of course it is as is so often the case refuted by reality.
Before there was capital there was wealth. Before there was an enterprise there was wealth. It is another of the con-jobs to keep the proles in check and hopefully not notice that they are being raped.

But wasn't the wealth before capitalism all in the hands of feudal lords, who didn't get it by enterprise but by conquest? Capitalism does benefit the whole society in a way the feudal system of course did not. I'm certainly not arguing that capitalism is some kind of perfection if completely uncontrolled by law because it can be exploitative too, and it can be used against the people too, as Soros' billions are being used.
In one short period that was the case. Then the Capitalists replaced the feudal lords and hired armed thugs to support their efforts to acquire the wealth.
BUT there was wealth before all that as well.
But so far no one has shown any examples of Soros using his billions against the people. That is just made up.

Please be more specific. I don't recall a period of Capitalism defended by Thugs. When and where was that? And all the wealth created prior to modern times seems to me fits the feudal model, at least the model of the wealth all belonging to the ruling class and the rest of the tribe or nation living in poverty.
Sheesh. Have you ever read the Bible Faith? Did folk not own flocks, have gardens, was there not trade between nations?
And do you really know nothing about US history? Didn't you even study the Battle of Blair Mountain or the Ford Massacre or the Greensboro Massacre or the Honea Path Massacre or any of the literally hundreds of such examples in the US alone when you were in grade school.
Why are these things not commonly taught in school? Asking why Extremism and right there is the answer.

I consider Soros' use of his billions for leftist and globalist causes to be using it "against the people."
No one doubts that you consider things that way however that has absolutely nothing to do with reality.
This is the US Faith and the Super Conservative Supreme Court we have all been living under until the recent death created a neutral court has decreed that money is a form of Free Speech. Therefore what you describe can not only not be against the people it is a Constitutionally Protected Act.
