10 Reasons to Hate Capitalism

[defacto7]

182. Capitalism is a myth in a myth

It's a short-term idea, a spike in productivity that gives the short-sighted the feeling of stability or even wealth while it eventually leads to collapse. Those who want to deregulate simply speed the process of collapse and those who seek regulation only slow the process down. There may be different opinions that think Capitalism can be balanced, but that assumes unlimited resources and they do not exist except in the mind of the faithful. It also assumes the universe fits in a generation or two and the rest doesn't matter.

If what people want is to generate a sense of economic stability for themselves and their children, a short-term view, then maybe there are ways of stretching out the inevitable though regulation and whatnot. But in the next, and next, and next generation it will finally fail, and what is left will not be sustainable.

Things change now... or never. I sincerely doubt there will be real change... but dream and hope on.
