: Get a clue, guys. Capitalism is not the problem, it's the answer.

Yep, and it's working great so far isn't it!! ;-)

zero unemployment,
no need for welfare handouts,
great education systems,
medical attention available to all,
healthy populations,
everyone getting enough to eat,
a home for everyone that wants one,
a clean and unpolluted enviroment,
everyone happy and content.

GET REAL! where do you live, disneyland?

Capitalism doesn't work, it creates a greater
gulf between the 'haves' and the 'have nots'.

Capitalism has no interest in protecting the
rights of the individual, or the enviroment,
or the welfare of animals. Capitalism is
interested only in money.

The only people that believe that capitalism works
are the ignorant or those that benefit from it personally.
Which are you?
