  I think i was more trying to say that it goes in waves. But it’s always the first people who benefit (ie, type of governance is declared, you buy a few acres of land for 300 dollars, 40 years later that land is worth millions because you were there when the act of buying and selling it started. You’re born 30 years later, fuck you, 1 acre of land is now $400,000.

  Of course if you started a business when it was still possible to do so (maybe building a specialty tool with 3 employees) and could buy houses and land off your little business, youd think capitalism is great. That’s not possible in later stages (regulations, and China can do everything cheaper, large corporations will stop you instantly if you challenge them)
