Another thing that capitalism is hurting is music. Major record labels don't care about good, hard-working artists. They care about marketable artists that stupid people can embrace. Hence Justin Bieber and the bevy of autotune users.

@AntiMTVMovement Any type of artwork is being affected. The video game industry can no longer take any chances. Companies will only fund what they know to be profitable. That's why we see a new Call of Duty every year.

I meant people ,not the air dummy.Your just short sighted by saying capitalism 40 times,ok so what about the elite rich Communist and Socialist dictators like Hitler,they were well off and you do not blame them for being greedy. Capitalism does not promote scarcity,look all the food there is to say the least,while the Russians waited in line for toilet paper..Go to work,raise children and find out how things realy are and get out of your adolecent stage.Your arguments are very weak .

@CrashMarket Do you think that me targeting capitalism makes me a socialist/communist supporter? Yes some of these things do happen with socialism and communism. You are completely missing the point.  And yes our monetary system promotes both scarcity and waste. 1/3 of all food produced is thrown out (waste) diamonds are destroyed each year, cures or more efficient products are suppressed. (Scarcity) Air is an example of abundance. The idea here is our current state of capitalism is dying

@matteo311 Thanks for a kind comback,..There is no 100% perfect of a system.There are false shrotages created to keep from flooding the market with a certain product,farmers have done it killing new hatched fowl that could not sell,I have seen garbage bins at supermarkets with allot of sealed food in them ,a huge bag of cheese behind a Dominoes Pizza.I have even heard of oil tankers dumping oil at sea off the Arab coast ..

@CrashMarket There definitely isn't a 100% system, and I don't think there every will be. We can always find ways to improve. But we can't hold on to things that are broken. I'm glad you kept it civil with the comments.

=That is why the rush to metal is heating ,it is the only way to keep the money you have from drying up with Ben Bernankes printing press...Hopefully the gov will not find another way to make our metal worhless..There is no 100% answer to our problems and corporate greed mixed in with elite governmet cronyism for favours is a problem,but if small business dies ,we all die ,and small business has a terrible time with government regulations,they have it the hardest..

[CrashMarket]

At least though if we could keep product cost low by keeping the gov out of private business with out taxing them too much so they will not pass the cost to us,I think there could be allot less waste and our money would be worth more than just nearly nothing.The fiat based system has devalued our money to 5% of what it should be..Old money lying around,Pensions,IRA,savings accounts are worth way less than they were a few years ago..

@CrashMarket Greed is a healthy position in a capitalist system. The more you have the better you are doing. The environment causes greed. Do you know anyone who hordes air? No? Why not? Simple answer air is overly abundant; there is no reason to store it.  Capitalism promotes scarcity. You can't sell something that is overly abundant.
