fuck this shit ive decided that capitalism is fine
people can make it as long as they are responsible enough
ive realized corporatism is the real issue.
Even corporatism can be beaten with education. The only advantage corporations have that allow them influence is one they can bribe our politicians and two they can influence our vote by throwing a lot of money around in campaigns. Both of those things can be beaten with a good education. One study the facts about the politician to make sure the corporations can't use their lobbyist to bribe them and two research the politicians through places like the Internet where corporations can't monopolize information on their candidate allowing you to get true info.
They can't control us if we don't put their people into positions of power.
We are not arrogant enough to believe we are all powerful and we are willing to learn and adapt. When we came to America we merged with the people and willingly adopted some of the beliefs of the people living their if the beliefs were the best thing for our combined people.

I think this argument is going nowhere since all of these people have been taught that capitalism is good and they haven't even read a marxist book.
I read practically any philosophical or historical book I can get my hands on. I have already stated my love of China's State Capitalism. Which is the only working somewhat Socialist government in my view. Humans get in the way of True Socialism though. Their is no way a human being would give both his allies and enemies equal pay. Human intelligence gets in the way of that kind of stupidity.

ive read the communist manifesto and shit and other marxist books,
but ive also read up on shit written from the other side so idk anymore.
I care less about what ideologues say and more about what seems to work. The countries throughout history who have Capitalist type systems tend to last longer and be more prosperous whereas countries that try to implement Socialist systems tend to die out.
Socialism's problem is humanity our inherent flaws make us ruin that type of government.

What is weird is that most capitalist countries are 3rd world countries... and the ones that are not, they're in recession right now.
Mmm... makes me think...
