Let me be clear,
I mean non “natural” deaths, and am including stuff like the failure to counteract malaria due to lack of profit motive, etc etc etc.
Real question, is capitalism the deadliest human invention of all time?
this will probably come down to where you draw the line between capitalism and imperialism, but I’d argue they’ve been largely once unified force since at least the 1920s
Yes. Amartya Sen, a liberal Indian economist, estimated that capitalist India alone has the equivalent of the black book of communism in “excess” deaths every few decades. And that’s under better conditions than the Raj. And that’s just 1/7 or so of the planet.
