Of course I realize that the money it costs to get my message across
could be put to much better use, but the fact is that we are stuck in
the idiotic world we have created.
I would agree that capitalialism allows this cyper-comment to be
possible but does that mean capitalism is the answer to all evil.
The United States of America is creating some of the most advanced
technology in the world.
They are able to sent space ships to the moon, yet they are unable
to adequately feed and house their own population.
Are these the proper priorities?
Should Bill Gates make 18 billion dollars are year while people
starve around the world? It seems idiotic to assume that some
aspect of socialism isn't necessary in order to provide for those
that weren't born with a silver spoon in there mouth.
Many may gloat while USSR falls to pieces, but that doesn't
necessarily mean that a self interested capitalist system should
rule the world.
