Everybody is Bullshit from a Generalized perspective,we're Weak....Submissive,Opinionative,Illogical,Ignorant,Naive,Superficial,Cynical,and Hypocritical.We all have those negativities it's just matter of degree,Slavery converted to Indivisual Jobs so we can think we're not slaves and continue to make our masters money unintentinally,basically it's a social hiearchy.More education leads to more money enabling you to workless as a result,less money you make the harder you work.

I think Capitalism is good as long as we teach the children not to waste money, not to vote for a certain party just because Mom and Dad vote for it, and History of politics. Because History of certain political parties is more accurate than what the parties say they are going to do.

In a purely capitalist system you have a choice between starvation and getting fucked.

In a purely capitalistic system, you legally could not get fucked by businessmen.

Again, the expansion of credit was only possible because of how low Federal Reserve made the interest rates and how high the inflation was. Banks were practically being paid to borrow money. The interest rates went up, banks couldn't pay their dept, and now here we are.

No, it's not impossible and it's government intervention into the economy that caused this in the first case. The same thing happened in the Depression and it's happening again now.

"Capitalism" as you describe it is impossible. The rich WANT a government there to bail them out. Oh, and the crisis is due to capitalism. Capitalism is very simply a system of private ownership that operates for profit. With disastrous results . . .
