  • Chomsky is not Marxism, he is an Anarchism, you have to know him better before to write shit. And destruction is promove the capitalism and its mechanism. The hungry and misery kill thousands of people but you live in your fantasy world thinking that capitalism is a wonderfull...thats shame!

  • The removal of our jobs to India, Tai wan and now China by the shareholders is what the Rothschilds of this world appear to be playing with. Diverting the world slave market. The monetary system must collapse when the division between masters and slaves gets too big. But at what cost? We have to start at home to produce a more Mutal rather than Adversarial way of life.

  • Marxism is a broad and versatile academic nexus of disciplines around various fields of research. To call someone "marxist" doesn't say much at all, because the concept is so enormous in itself.

  • @errocrasso Well in all fairness, while Chomsky doesn't label himself as such, he is more or less a Marxist. His beliefs are very consitant with Marx's writings. Now this isn't a bad thing because contrary to what the majority of the population thinks (the same majority that hasn't read a word of Marx), Marxism isn't bad.

  • In the meanwhile, only the income of the top 20% has continued to grow, growing very fast for the top 10%, and exploding astronomically for the top 2-3%. CEOs' revenues have been multiplied by 20.

    This phenomenon of wage reduction and explosion of profits is going on in most of the world, often in a manner even much more extreme than in the USA. In Haiti for example real wages have decreased by 50% during the last 20 years.

    Long live the corporations, down with the people!

    First of all, it's easy to say things are "market based." That could be interpreted to mean almost anything other than public ownership. Taxes and subsidies are sometimes called "market based incentives" but most people would clearly see they are not part of the market. Anyways, the level of standards isn't what you should look at - you gotta compare apples with apples. The thing to look at would be growth RATE, and it was highest in US history during the Industrial Revolution

  • my questions were in reference to those of @stealthswimmer.

  • so how does this theory stack up against the 19th century? do you propose that environmental i and labor standards were higher during the industrial revolution when everything was market based, and businesses were able to do whatever they wanted? when industry basically raped the planet, an children were forced to work in coal mines? that minorities rights were to a higher standard working for the transcontinental railroad for example? then pesky labor unions screwed up this imaginary utopia?

  • America doesn't have capitalism. We have a mixed economy, much like most nations around the world.

    As for our ecosystem, much of the ill effects come from government intervention and favors to businesses while trampling private property rights and is clearly not a product of the market.

    As for exploitation, the same goes there. One example was labor unions consisting of white people that disliked blacks and lobbied for higher minimum wages so that blacks would get priced out of employment.
