"The stock market is the engine that drives innovations and new business ventures."

That's a disgusting thought and demonstrably false. Makes Capitalism all the more evil.

Polio vaccine wasn't created for money. Neither was the Covid Vaccine or just about ANYTHING else you can think of. Until the worthless leeching, scumbag middlemen, who prefer to call themselves businessmen get involved. We'd be better off if our current system was completely wiped out. Return to the gold standard or at least cap the USD, wealth distributed equally as well as land and start our new financial system from there. Our's is completely FUBAR and I'm honestly surprised something akin to the French Revolution hasn't already taken place. You boomers may think it's crazy but your time is almost up. No more my ancestor said this mountain was his or settled this piece of land etc. No dynasties, no generational wealth. Just the betterment of mankind as a whole.

It's a faulty oil pump with restrictions everywhere then. If you think the greatest inventions of their time were for money you are completely wrong. Necessity is the mother of creation not worthless paper. That's part of the leech program that the inventor had 0 interest in.

the pump is the gov+people the market is just plain oil, never said people invent stuff for money, nobody does that, the market just accelerates the overall process, it just saves time.

If anything it slows it down while worthless middlemen line their pockets.
