Saying that capitalism is as permanent as gravity is to assume that humans have no control over how they organise themselves. The point is that humans invented capitalism, it didn't exist as some universal law of how things should be, like those of physics. If we created it we can sure as hell destroy it.Although whether or not we should destroy (or more reasonably, Change) capitalism is something which can only be decided through discussion. If the discussion is left up to the powers that be then they will predictably choose to maintain the status quo because it is benefitting them. Thus it's important to keep the discussion going amongst us commonfolk, and that's where mcspotlight come in. The promotion of free discussion of ideas will serve as education for all. I myself have learned a great deal from reading other's views, and for that I thank mcspotlight, ("Thank you mcspotlight.")
