Reddit mentions of This Changes Everything

> Significantly reduce extreme poverty

Slavery also managed progress. And yet it was not the performance of the slaveholders, but that of slaves.

> Ease with those living in poverty

I would highly doubt that. This is a documentary about the effects of Hartz IV in Germany (of course in German). In other countries, it is not better. And don't forget the conditions of the poor in the so-called. Third World.

> Reduce unemployment

Before capitalism there was virtually no unemployment. Unemployment is a concomitant of capitalism.

> Lead to greater GDP per capita

Yes, but not longer in the Industrialized world. For further progress we need socialism.

> Lead to less economic inequality and less gender inequality

Obviously wrong. The 62 richest people own the same amount as the poorer half of the world population. The gap is greater than in the past between the sun priests and slaves.

> Lead to lower child labor rates

Capitalism was built by the hands of children. That this is no longer common, at least in developed countries, is not the work of capitalism, but the struggle of the people. Without the state and trade unions there would be no barriers to use child labor.

> Increase reforestation (regrowth of forests) and reduce deforestation

Obviously wrong. Capitalism leads to environmental degradation.

> What do you think about it?

I highly doubt the empirical evidence base of this video.

Edit: typo

But not the other way round, eh?
