If competition involves purposefully going to countries without regulations, a minimum wage, etc.. and finding the cheapest laborers and barely paying them enough to live, then yes, competition sounds wonderful. That is the real "competition" between capitalists. Capitalism appeals to the best and brightest? Encourages people? 80% of the world makes less then $10 a day, are they just not trying hard enough, or is it the system that is broken? My system, appeals to failures? Capitalism appeals to those who love the idea that food can be sold for a profit, that the world produces enough food to feed 10 billion, yet, we somehow can't distribute that, (exchange value is used over use value..) Let others do the heavy lifting? YOU MEAN THE FREAKING WORKERS working in the factories who may want to collectively own the factory for the benefit of everyone, not just the capitalist? LOL.
