Forum Post: OWS Serves the Good Intent of Capitalism (On Why I've Stopped Being Afraid)

Capitalism, by definition, is the exploitation of one another. As long as this exploitation is rooted in good faith or fairness by all parties, it's a good thing and may even be the essence of cooperation.

No matter how much we need to and do deny it, all of us need each other on some level. On many, not all, things we need to cooperate.

OWS is calling out parties they think are not, when needed, acting in good faith or fairness. This calling out is a good thing as it helps Capitalism fulfill its good intent. OWS just doesn't scare me.

Also, we men seem to have forgotten that the women really want us guys to all just get along. Arrogance ain't sexy to the ladies, fellas.

Name me one political system that does not exploit people.
