Capitalists march

[MJM]

March of the wannabes

The picture in the paper showed two men holding a banner ‘I own my life. I am not a slave. I am a capitalist’. Around 25 avowed capitalists had taken to the streets of Auckland in a Walk for Capitalism on 2 December. The comic (or tragic?) side of it was these were no capitalists. One man was a customer services manager, another an architect, while another was a civil engineer. There were no Fletchers, Brierleys, Fays or Richwhites on the march. What these aspiring capitalists all lacked was capital. If they had that they wouldn’t have to eke out an existence as salary men

Amusing is right. There was 100 people who showed up for the march in Toronto. They carried signs such as "Mine Earth First, Other Planets Later". Yeah-- nice one you dumb fuck-heads. There petty march was quite a laugh especially when compared to the numbers and solidarity of the marches against capitalism/imperialism all around the world.

capitalism sucks, the only argument for capitalism is 'there are no alternatives'.
so why demonstrate for something which is the best of many devils?

"Mine Earth First, Other Planets Later".

Jesus... people are fucking stupid

[Freiheit]

you are right.
sometimes i just dont get it.

[Dreadnaht1]

ANY capitalist march ANYwhere at ANY time is just plain stupid.

FUCK CAPITALISM!

You all should move to DC. The street vendors here are used to marches for the stupidest things in the world, and whenever organizers of HUGE marches ask them to move away for an afternoon, a few of them get their own signs and protest for their right to sell "FBI" t-shirts and hot dogs to protesters.

Three cheers for freedom of assembly! I just wish I could remember some of the slogans they came up with.

i thought this was gonna be something like this one march i saw somewhere.

"Millionaires for Bush (or Gore) - Because we arn't rich enough yet" or something like that was written on their banners..........it was great. :)
