Because capitalism is inherently exploitative and unjust and inhuman.

The justice system never 'turned' corrupt. It was created that way.

the problem of capitalism is
1. its build-in crisis, that can only be "solved" by wars
2. the requirement of unlimited growth, that destroys the planet
3. the requirement to dis-educate/dis-inform, finally fool the people and to make them act/react like consuming animals
Also Albert Einstein in it essay "Why Socialism? " 1949 regards the psychological damage on humans by capitalism is far worse and dangerous than exploitation.

find others with the same ideal.Always keep in mind what you have in common with them,not what divides you from them.Be a reliable Friend with a warm heart.Keep the flame inside you alive.Be prepared that such an Ideal has to face many frustrations.Share DIY knowledge among each other & try them out, if & how they are working.
Even if this ideal won't be established in society, you will rewarded with a connection to people & sentient beings in a way, others never will encounter!

This System has NO FAILURE !
IT IS A FAILURE!!!
I have seen this Video over&over again.
I still deeply love it, since it gives me support to stick to my guns with our ideal of a Society, where every1 has equal rights to fullfill her or his needs.
May we all remember that we are children of Mamma Anarchia...a mother who always treats her children equally according to it's individual abilities.
May we learn to share & support our family of true Liberty!
May it grow & shine for everybody.

The more I learn about the human psychology, the more am I reasured of, that Anarchism is natural and the best way for humans to live on this godforsaken planet.

My dream is to die fighting against the tyranny of this world or live after throwing the tyranny away.
I will not live in the society that condones tyranny without resistance. Anarchy is the way. Now to get people to wake up and realize it.

If an old person like him still has that energy and positive hope for the future, every young person like me (I'm 18) should have the will to build a better tomorrow and struggle for a brighter future. Almost every kind of hatred and corruption comes from social stratification... Anarchism shall prevail!

I love this.

quote :39 "We are living in a society without slaves, poverty , misunderstanding, social injustice"
Is that what he said or did I misunderstand him.
If I heard him right this guy is senile.

Not all old people have just given up and become rescind. Some retain their enthusiasm for the future and can be a great help in shaping the world to come. Don't underestimate the Wisdom...sometimes a hard pill to swallow, but usually beneficial.

Hey, this guy is Irving Abrams, the old anarchist who paid for and took care of Emma Goldman's gravesite. It's from our 1980 documentary, FREE VOICE OF LABOR: THE JEWISH ANARCHISTS -- Pacific Street Films

Exactly, and thanks for not asking for it to be removed if you have that authority. ;-) ... long live the "Digital Commons"
