Marxism views the emergence of a socialist system as a historical inevitability that arises from the obsolescence of capitalism and the corresponding social revolution, where private property in the means of production would be superseded by co-operative ownership. The hypothetical system of socialism would succeed capitalism as the dominant mode of production when the accumulation of capital can no longer sustain itself due to falling rates of profit in real production relative to increasing productivity. A socialist economy would not base production on the accumulation of capital, but would instead base production and economic activity on the criteria of satisfying human needs - that is, production would be carried out directly for use.

Michelle Obama is all set to become the next big reality TV star -- the First Lady has announced she'll be appearing on an upcoming episode of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition." Obama is slated to help build a new greenhouse and a children's play area for a community resource center for homeless female military vets in Fayetteville, N.C.
You already know and its a shame.
You hate Obama because he is ______! - fill in the blank

Ok when all is said and done, and the vets have been helped by the altruistic people person matriarch of congress.... lets count how many vets thank her and the whole show. My guess is yes, there will be a HANDFUL of people helped out greatly, given cars and wheelchairs and Oprah books and swimming pools. But then lets see just how many vets are still left in the cold.

Shouldn't she be helping her husband getting the USA back on track or staying the hell away all together?
Originally posted by hotbakedtaterWhat do you think? Does the First Lady cheapen and degrade the White House by doing reality TV?

Let me show you how your post reads to a mind like mine.
"The other day some person gave me $1000 for no reason at all but pffffft. It's not like it was a $1,000,000. I almost punched him"
