As far as I am concerned capitalism has won the economic argument. However, the people who are presently steering our economies are just as stupid as those who believe in the command economy. My viewpoint is that capitalism is a good idea when used for the benefit of all instead of the smug, greedy and utterly selfish few. Does that make me a Marxist? I seriously doubt it.Iphidaimoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05020652010253808879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984650470049442891.post-83969152416377916502013-12-03T12:43:42.765+00:002013-12-03T12:43:42.765+00:00I agree, we live in a very sick society, one that ...I agree, we live in a very sick society, one that has become noticeably sicker over the last 30 years, under both Labour and Conservative governments, I might add. The question is; is either party capable or motivated enough to change our society for the better. I personally don't believe that they are. Big problems need big solutions and voting in a new improved version of the culprits of our downfall is not big enough. Its time for a new party or a new institutional framework, but again unfortunately this generation just doesn't have the intelligence or the stomach for it any more.<br /><br />The other point to ponder is that is this done by some inept leaders or is the destruction of our living standards and the decimation of our culture done by design. You're a Marxist so I think you know the answer to that one. Their master plan is for the destruction of western civilisation and it's going perfectly so far. My prediction is this, all major world currencies will collapse in less that 3 years bringing down with it all independent sovereign nations, riots will ensue, millions will be killed and then a new saviour will be announced, a new world order backed by a single world currency controlled by a one world communist government. But like I said you probably know that because if you've studded Marx/Engels et. al. that's always been the plan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
