Capitalim is the answer to What?
It's the answer to providing a priveleged few the BMW's and
a life time supply of Big macs.

It seems the american propaganda machine has brainwashed you
into believing that every other country is backward and idiotic.

It seems you are to quick to judge systems that you have never
been involved in.

Do you really think your capitalist ideals provide democracy?
Are you free?

Your free to pay taxes but do your opinions really count.
Multination corporations buy your vote before you even get to
the poll.

I'm glad to have naivity to bask in.
