: Without it, the personal computer probably would not have been invented, let alone the Internet.IIIIDDDDIIIIOOOOTTTT! Okay, let's start with a simple question. Who invented the car? Workers. Who builds the cars in the factories? Other types of workers. Who profits off the cars? The capitalists.
It's the same thing for all technological advances. It's the ordinary worker, scientist or engineer who invents things and comes up with the ideas. The capitalists couldn't do this for themselves and they never have (they need to employ workers!) All they do is make the money off what the worker creates. After all, that's why they are called "capitalists", and not "workers"
You're trying to tell me that computers would never have been invented if there wasn't someone making money off it at the top! There is NOTHING that co-operative individuals cannot achieve for themselves, they don't need the bloody bosses to force'em into it.
