I see little point in raving about "capitalism" and "socialism." They're essentially meaningless terms. There are no purely capitalist nor purely socialist countries in the world.

And if the government spending trillions twice in a decade to bail out "capitalist" companies is "capitalism," what's the distinction, exactly?

Youd cry too if you went from decades of flipping burgers to being a butch security guard wouldn't you?

Or would the play the cards you were dealt, go all in on a pair of threes as if you had aces?

But if the Joker in Rideau....

In most places butch security guards make $20+ per hour, more if you're specialized like armored truck will raise you to $25/hr and Security in gold and diamond mines in Yukon and Ontario goes from $30+ to Salaried.
