Most rich people in this country didn't start out that way.
I hope to one day be rich after producing something that changes society for the better.
I hope to have a large company with many employees. A company that is profitable and provides good wages and incentives.
And that is why capitalism is doomed to fail. Everything revolves around profit at the expense of a society living as harmonious as possible with nature and its actual needs. Why do we need an economy based on greed rather than an economy based on needs.
Greed encourages over-production, small worker wages, maximum profit, neglect for the enviroment, etc It goes against the needs of the many and benefits the wishes of the minority. Its a recipe for waste and corruption!

EarthCitizen - exactly, it is bound to fail, that's why we have to hit certain evolutionary points, the pinnacle would be free energy. So say some tribe lives in a wonderful communal fashion and live harmoniously with the Universe and are deeply spiritual people, well that's great and all, but they're not going to be able to create free energy. So we need a system that allows us to become economically and technologically advanced so that we can end up with free energy and then evolve back into a more communal society. The economy is everything, if it's working very well, we have much less a need for the "safety net", but when a huge safety net is foced upon an economy that isn't doing well, it merely makes everything much much worse. So the point is to get such a successful economy that we can have these social programs, but the problem with the economy is that eventually you get an oligopoly and transnational megacorps. But Tesla's work happened in the early 1900s, so we should have had these wonderful advancements, which a Leftist economy would never create, and this would have helped balanced against Big Biz. So all of the problems with Capitalism these days comes from the fact that we have long since passed our evolutionary jump. So even if we demolished the Fed/IMF/World Bank, got a Fair Tax, backed money with gold, and all of those good things just short of kicking out the Illuminati and benefitting from their Black Budget technology and contact with ETs, we would still have some problems, though things would be much better. So Capitalism that skips over free energy will have many problems, but trying to fix it with anything Leftist just causes even more problems.
To all those speaking out against Capitalism and using your Leftist talking points, what is your suggestion for setting up the perfect economy? Then what would you do to this economy presently to make it perfect? And give us an answer that doesn't share anything with what the TP/C/Ls would suggest, since they're all just billionaire shills.
So what? The achievements of the past of a family (in case such existed, because some as bankers were plainly robbing people) gives them the right to slave other humans for all eternity? The thing remains, for a few to be rich, most should be poor. Do you really think that is fair?

privledged? do you know how many millionaires and billionaires became that way?
most of them grew up in slums and it was only from hard work and alot of sweat and alot of tears and more hard work and it took yearts to accomplish.
do you think those priviledge few just had everything handed to them on a silver platter? no
the reason they are successful is because they have never blamed anyone else for their problems and they knew if they were ever going to get anywhere in life THEY HAD TO DO IT.

No offense received. You're obviously a leftist bigot who hates people who disagree with your party line. Care to share more of your delightful insight?
Yes let us make assumptions.
You are obviously a person who thinks Obama is the anti-christ.
See I can say things without proof also.
My Insight? My insight is this:
Ignorance - The condition of being uneducated, unaware, or uninformed.
So you ignored videos just because you had a feeling that they were propaganda? Right?
I don't need to watch Janene Garafelo to know she's going to say something stupid. That's like saying , "Why don't you hit yourself with a hammer? Do you KNOW it's goin to hurt?"
I don't think Obama is the anti-christ though nice try changing the narritive. I think he's a progressive who wants to fundamentally change America.
And you are still being biased and uninformed. But follow that party line!

bruji - I've read some quotes and I've gotten a general idea, but when someone is writing lies meant to deceive people, it doesn't really matter if I've actually read it. It's like me calling Chris Matthews a Lib shill, I've seen and heard enough to know. Reagan sums it up well, "How do you tell a Communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin."
From Fritz Springmeier, at rense.com, "The Bund der Gerechten (League of the Just) was an illuminati front run mainly by Jews who were Satanists. This Bund financed in part by the Rothschilds paid the Satanist and Mason Karl Marx to write the Communist Manefesto. The Jew Gumpel Oppenheim was in the inner circle of the Bund. His relative Heinrich Oppenheim masterminded the communist revolution of 1848 in Germany. The Communist Party's official histories even accept the Bund as the predecessor of Communism." - That's all I need to read.edit on 23-4-2011 by SincerelySarcastic because: (no reason given)
