No to capitalism.

Yes to Marxism.

Safari2010:

I agree.

[arnarXx]

the reason why they are doing it is to destroy the park outside the house where the goverment is

[oskarsteinn]

it was good food for the huge fire in the park. it's the christmas tree we get annually from norway (no offence to norway, though.)

Reminds me of Argentina during its crash.

All I know is that tree's last words were "Ahhh but I care nothing for politics.. fuck you hippie trash!!" The government didn't act during the financial crisis because there's nothing to act on. Its systemic within both wall streets trading of imaginary assets and the international banking systems participation in it. Burning the cash in their wallet would have been more effective.

why is it that every decade there is a major world financial crisis? every decade since the 1960s. I predict another meltdown by the mid 2020s. I wouldn't be surprised. It's rather pathetic that the only alternative we have is an economic system that chokes every decade.

[Xakryn]

Humans don't really have a sound theory of economics because of self determination and the "right to breed". We don't hand down occupations in families. 2 people have 10 dollars each in generation Y. 20$, 3 people have 10$ each in generation Z. 30$ = Inflation. Not only that, but jimmy the banker has 109928377446$ in his bank account, and rather than pay people to do work(create jobs), he thinks sitting on top of it makes his shit not stink. Strange isn't it?

This is what happens when white people do not get their daily lat-tay.

This crisis like every other in the past will go. No reason to panic.
