Some fantastic schlorship here, as well as the Q & A

[@Flux_40]

Financial profit is only derived from the deliberate and forceful creation of a large working class.
Feudalism is to blame for that, then the capitalist took advantage of that ready made class system.
without that foundational class system capitalism could not exist.
The hierarchies of feudalism and capitalism are pyramid shaped, while every natural hierarchy of competence is a bell curve (IQ bell curve) with few at the top and bottom and the majority in the middle.
Pyramid hierarchies are artificial and integral to capitalism/profit, there has to be a very large base of low paid workers in a capitalist hierarchy in order for profit to be generated.

Financial profit is not possible in a natural (bell curve) hierarchy because there aren't enough people at the bottom to skim labor value from.
Capitalism is not contrary to feudalism, capitalism is the lying rat that feudalism gave birth to.
