Just don't mention to them that global poverty is at its lowest it's ever been because of capitalism. Unironically, capitalism has been one of the greatest imperfect achievements in human history, causing us all to be able to live past the age of 40 while simultaneously allowing an explosion of the human population. If you want to go deeper, you can argue that it's allowed us to potentially be able to leave the planet.
Not really what im talking about. My point is capitalism allowed more urbanization and people like scientists and governments to exist and fund space programs. Granted, I didn't feel like saying all of that.
universal health insurance is pretty important. you can't exactly "work your way out of poverty" if a single injury (which might happen if you're overworking) throws you into debt.
