Comrades:

Capitalism is an evil system based on the exploitation of the workers by the bourgeoisie.

The bankers and industrialists grow rich and fat at the expense of the workers.

The bourgeoisie begin stealing our homes and land by way of forced layoffs and mass firings. The Wall Street bankers are criminals as they quickly seize our homes with rigged foreclosure actions. These are the homes we paid for with our blood, sweat, and tears. Honest hard working families are forced to live in the streets while the bankers feast on wine and roast beef. The fat bankers sell the land beneath our homes to the bourgeois bosses who now fight like hungry vultures for our property.

Comrades, we must rise against those who seek to oppress us. The time has come for us to tear down this wicked, evil curse we call capitalism.

Comrades we will march to victory.

Capitalism is not the problem. What they're trying to impose on us is FEUDALISM. Get it straight. Know your enemy.

JoseO,

I've said it a hundred times since I started posting on this site- try to understand the facts before running your mouth. Why don't you enroll in college and study economics and finance?

Your rantings are nothing more than union-inspired nonsense, and your cause is mired in dogma almost a century old. It never has worked and never will.

Because everybody has their own agenda.

Every economic system is capable of being manipulated by the greedy. The benefits of Capitalism is that it increases the standard of living for all because of competition. If the people are educated, we have the power to make good businesses prosper and hurt the bad ones by not purchasing their products. The problem is that we are stupid/greedy ourselves and believe that we can have perfection by purchasing the cheapest products that come with a 30 day money back guarantee. We then start supporting the Chinese system where they employ pre-teens to work 14 hour days. We have to accept some of the responsibility.

Now, I'm not sure what kind of power, we the people, have over the cheating manipulators of money on Wall Street, but that's what the fight should be about. Holding these people accountable for their actions.

The true problem with Capitalism is that in order for a business to continue to be successful, they HAVE to continue to show profits regardless of any issues that may arise. It's the pressure the people underneath feel when the CEO's say, I don't care how you do it - just get me those profits.
