It seems we agree about quite a bit. Rockefeller is a(n) [insert expletive here]. He was what I refer to as a conservative progressive, and was instrumental in moving America's economic system further toward corporatism, which is not what I advocate at all.

Rockefeller did not respect the Rights of the Individual. He was the result of corporatism, not the system I have consistently championed on this thread. Do not consider my concession of a good point to be anything other than an acknowledgement of a well made point, and do not try to twist to reflect anything other than my respect for Petrus4's civility.

This is an interesting discussion on capitalism and would be more interesting if Capitalism existed anywhere.
I think the 2007 economic crisis in the US was sufficient to show that Capitalism does not exist in that country.... just a form of totalitarianism that masquerades as Capitalism.
cap·i·tal·ism
[kap-i-tl-iz-uhm] Show IPA
noun
an economic system in which investment in and ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange of wealth is made and maintained chiefly by private individuals or corporations, especially as contrasted to cooperatively or state-owned means of wealth.

Genocide is conducted on the basis of the belief that a certain group of people need to be erased. This thread alone contains hundreds of calls for capitalists, corporatists and other successful people to be removed. Because so many "Zeitgeist" and "Zion Protocols" and "OWS" followers call for such, it will certainly happen in the future, just like it has been happening in the past few thousand years.
Behavior is caused by ones ideologies, beliefs, thoughts. In 1939 people kept talking about the evil jewish capitalists and the evil jewish bankers. They disseminated and promoted the "Protocols of the Wise Elders of Zion", just as you are doing it.
The implication here is that genocide is not the result of false ideologies but again of those vague "powers that be" that socialists always refer to.
Apart from Zeitgeist, OWS and Protocols-of-Zion, contemporary marxist brainwashing tries to indoctrinate the idea that anyone who denounces Communism/Socialism is a conservative. All across this discussion board, anti-communists are referred to as "conservatives", automatically, without thinking. Thats how far gone marxists are.

The attraction of doing business in China is undeniable. The country's low labor costs, in particular, enable companies to manufacture apparel, footwear, toys, and many other products very cheaply. China is also emerging as a large consumer market for many goods. At the same time, terrible labor rights and human rights conditions persist even as China's economy develops. Foreign companies must address these conditions if they wish to operate in a socially responsible manner....
....In practice, however, the rights of Chinese workers are routinely violated. Workers are often required to work far more than 40 hours a week, have few days off, are paid below the minimum wage, and are not paid required overtime. Improper deductions from wages are common. Some Chinese workers must pay a large sum of money as a "deposit" to their employer, and they may have to pay a "recruitment fee" in order to be hired. These payments can prevent workers from leaving jobs where their rights are violated. Physical abuse of workers, and dangerous working conditions, are also common....
