Topic	Second Thought: "Are You Really 'Free' Under Capitalism?"
Esrac 09/20/20 10:01:55 PM #41:	ButteryMales posted... What about someone born into a wealthy family? Sure, I suppose. They have more monetary resources and will probably have a more successful outcome, but I dont believe that makes them more free. As I tie more freedom with more independence, I would say the most free person would be someone who lives in the wild. Entirely self reliant. But I would also say that person has less potential when it comes to monetary success. Like, what I'm getting at is the more you rely on or are entangled within the system, the less free you are. But you can have a lot of benefits by working within the system. If that makes sense. I'm not someone who thinks more freedom is always better. <cite>Esrac posted [p:944877092] in Second Tho...
