Socialism vs. Capitalism. (Part Three)

Many supporters of capitalism, all from the 1st world of course, point to the relatively high standard of living enjoyed in their rich countries. They are either too blind, stupid, or evil to realize that they can afford their luxuries only because the 3rd world suffers. A system that affords happiness to a few hundred million at the expense of billions is NOT a success. It is rape. And it must fall. The WTO, the World Trade Organization, itself an engine of global capitalism, issued a report which can be found on its website, in which the disastrous effects of global 'free' trade on the majority of Humanity is described in detail. Please visit their report at: www.gatt.org/trastat_e.html.

The trade statistics shown in the video from 1:15-2:37 were taken directly from WTO's website at wto.org.

The song that plays starting at 7:30 is called 'El Pueblo Unido' and it was sung by a group called Quilapayun. Here are a couple of vids. The first is of the group itself performing on stage. The second is of tens of thousands of citizens in El Salvador at a political rally. Stirring!!

@Freez57fr No we know for a fact that we are there for oil. But simply saying that we did went to war for not being capitalist is bullshit, and neither him nor you have presented plausible evidence.

@CyberTechWolf

It seems you live in a fairy tail.

In 2030, you will say: "saying that we invaded Iraq for oil and benefits without any sources or proof to back you up is a fallacy"

Just admit the facts and stop your hypocrisy.

@platipot Your not going to get an asnwer, his account doesn't exist anymore, also don't bother with him, I have a feeling he/she doesn't understand how markets work.

Writing shouldn't of been yellow, with all the bright background pictures, it was hard to read.

[CyberTechWolf]

@Mraloneandsad Yes but what someone defines as good in an economic sense is very broad.

[Mraloneandsad]

@CyberTechWolf belive what u will.In the end we will all die.what matters is that we live good before that.NO MATTER WHAT

[CyberTechWolf]

This video is a fucking joke. Saying that we invaded Latin America to keep them from turning scoialist without any sources or proof to back you up is a fallacy.

You should write in Red as the Yellow colour is not visible and slow it so that we can read it.

[squirell1952]

self jest is the best.

[squirell1952]

chastised, more like, not baptized! This is called SELF-DEPRECATION. JEWISH Humour is a bit like irish self humour. we can laugh at ourselves. but if OTHERS laugh at us, we might not like it! Still, isn't there a big difference between laughing AT someone and laughing WITH them? People who give out jokes have difficulty laughing at THEMSELVES yet they can laugh at you or me or everyone else, but not at themselves. Strange, is it not?
