@123sbw dumbest comment ever. Whats it like being an intellectual caveman?
-
@123sbw No he's saying that a shitload of people are starving or dying everysecond and not because they are not willing to work or they're lazy or parasytes, the system just works this way; genius.

It comes down to whether you think you should have a stake in your society, or not.
Those who sit back and let unfettered competition take them for a ride may find themselves in a hole in 2009. Yeah, if the people had any say in the economy, I'd doubt we would have invaded iraq, or stuck an oil I.V. line into America's jugular, or devastated Nicragua. PROFIT OVER PEOPLE

No, he is saying that there is a system which doesn't produce good enough results for people. And instead if blaming people, we should evolve the system. Your excusing the system, because you do not want to take the responsibility of making it better.
Because you believe it can not be done.
Because you believe this, you will not try or carefully evaluate anyone who claims it can be done.

So basically what he's saying in this video is that if there is a society that can't support its self, they should be put on welfare instead of reforming. Wow, genius.

Goddammit, I was reading about Parecon at work today and it the whole capitalism fostering anti-social behavior thing makes a lot of sense. It also makes me sick.

You instead, are one of the millions who, if we survive the next hundred years, be looked back upon as archaic, and outdated.
