Still Going - One Million Years of Capitalism

To Whom It May Concern:
Without any regret or sadness whatsoever I announce that, as of this date forward, I shall not provide, on demand, universal free bricks or anything else. Anyone desiring bricks, sandwiches or health care is hereafter left to his own devices. Happily, there shall be sufficient bricks, sandwiches, and even TURNIPS, for all, if one is clever enough to devise such means as may be required to obtain various goods and/or services, both for himself and for those deemed worthy of his charity. I have given you Capitalism. (I INVENTED IT.) That will suffice you. Now, knock yourselves out. But, DO TRY not to over-indulge; moderation in all things is my advice to you! Oh yeah. One more thing. If you wish to become a rock-toting capitalist, there are plenty of nice rocks down by the watering hole.

Signed, Duh, former tree dweller and inventor of the multi-purpose rock.

The first human to pick up a rock in order to EXPLOIT the limited and fragile resources of Mother Earth... well, he is now my hero. Because in so doing, he blew Marx's theories all to hell. Leftists see capitalism as both evil and recent. It is neither. The bottom line: Karl Marx was an idiot.

@opchidexio Well, folk, 'real' socialism/communism has not been achieved. Therefore, you cannot critizise its practice (unless you are saying its impossible), you can only critizise the IDEA, which, for me, any sane human being likes.

Capitalism is GOOD for all? Pfft, ok, you are blind...VERY blind.

no real answers here, as usual its all half-truths and twisted truths...

no-one is against the exchange, only the accumulation of wealth that is only possible under capitalism (and only by a few!)

the difference is that the single brick maker is empowered whereas the multi-corp is more fair for those at the top than those at the bottom of the heirarchy

the soveits were just as exploited by heirarchy, we're also not arguing that stalinism is the only other option

no gods, no masters

I also gave this comment a thumbs down since you were condescending to the person who made this great video!

Listen to what he is saying. Communism is the most terrible way of living. Also he forgot to mention that in communism, religion is banned. That's why many priests in the soviet were sent to jail or murdered

[blueswilly7]

you obviously have no idea how old capitalism is if you think its a million years old. there was no such thing as capitalism athousand years ago. inless you mean the rich exploiting the poor in which case, yes it has been around for a long time.
