Take it from someone who knows. Who understands. Who might care, but might not. The failure of Capitalism is all but complete.
Please forgive any UNINTENTIONAL bitter sounds that may be attributed to any of those words.
Here is what I am trying to say. No matter what the capitalists say - you are insane! You are wrong! You are mistaken! I will stand firm. And shout out: NO I AM NOT!
They can chain me. Drug me. Inprison me. Torture me. Torment me. Hound me. Clone me. Experiment on me. Lie to me. Mistreat me. Strangle me. Kill me.
And until my dying breath I will deny them. THEY ARE WRONG! What they have, all they can do, all they have done and plan to me holds no bearing on my purpose. What I am. All that I can be. Nothing can stop me. They can repeat the process of torture and druggung and hounding endlessly. They will not shake my belief. They cannot change me. I BELIEVE! I AM A BELIEVER!
BRING TO ME YOUR ACCUSERS! YOUR PROSECUTERS! YOUR INTROLOCUTERS! YOUR ABUSERS, YOUR CONFUSERS, REFUSERS, SEDUCERS!
You will not and cannot change my mind. THIS TIME I AM RIGHT!
brand me with any insanity you want
imprison me indefinately
force feed me any drugs you desire
follow and hound me to every end of the earth
strangle and choke the air out of me
it all matters not to my sensibility. JUSTICE will find me, and SHE ALONE can protect and assist, guide and love, cherish me. what you have is nothing. I have it all. this cannot be taken. THE TRUTH!
WE HAVE FOUGHT FOR ETERNITY AND WE HAVE WON!

right, the capitalist criminals
who punish people for belief
for belief can inspire others to believe, and when people believe, people hope.
hope does not make a good worker. a good producer of capital. our faith, our dreams, our love, our belief, our desire and goals, our heaven, our God, our everything must be taken away. stolen. chanelled into TV and movies so that we don't think. we are told what to think. we don't believe. we are told what to believe.
I will fight against this.
I will believe. I will think. I will love.

Hehe...
Anyways, if the fall of Capitalism could come at any second, Im pretty sure it probably would have happened by now... I mean, its like a plague that overtook the entire planet, and for it to fall would mean damn near an entire planet would have to suddenly not believe that Capitalism works.
Most people's response to your statements will be to step inside their brand new car and drive home to a new flatscreen TV to watch the lastest Sports headlines.
And if the planet happened to somehow fallout, then Anarchism would ensue for about 10 minutes before someone with strength and pretty ideas would sweet talk part of the populace and offer them the chance to the return to the life they once had, complete with cars, flat screens and sports.
So no, as much I dont like to say it, Capitalism isnt going to randomly fall into itself.
"And remember kiddies, multi-million dollar companies dont fall on their own, they need the help of precious supporters such as yourself."
I laughed when I heard it from a man who called himself Bodhi when I was traveling through Savannah, GA. Its true.
And also messor messiah. How exactly is "lifespan decreasing by the second"? Statistics? Links? Source? Anything?
Chad King
6th June 2004, 11:28
The fuck? Does every other person that posts here ask for proof to back someone's opinion? He posted why he thinks Capitalism will fall, end of story, you are then allowed to comment. If there were statistic saying Capitalism is falling, Im sure it would be more outward than some kid posting a cute graph on a forum.
So what your saying is that you have no proof of actual decline in lifespan since the publication of The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith aside from the ultra-"cool" and "rebelious' opinions of a dedicated keyboard marxist the messiah.
I bow to you intellect messor Chad King.

Hey now, I didnt start the damn topic, I just noted how every 6th post is something similar to "Got any proof?"
Am I defending the messiah or anything? No. Im just slightly annoyed at how critical people here are.
I'm just pointing out the facts. And also, he did not state an opinion. "Life spans are falling by the second" is not an opinion as he says it as if it is a fact when he proceeds to continue with his "I'm cool" "U.$=Evil" "Parents suck" rant.
Chad King
6th June 2004, 11:43
I think he more or less meant the Capitalist lifespan is getting smaller by the seconds, not actual people... yeah, if he said the peoples' lifespans were going down, I could see asking for some proof.

Though I haven't bothered reading Jesus's post, its true modern US capitalism will die when the US as a superpower dies, which can not be too far away.
http://www.ac.wwu.edu/~stephan/Animation/pyramid.gif
As the ratio between independant workers and dependant elderly people becomes much smaller. The amount spent on the elderly will become too high , especially as the elderly begin to live longer. The US economy will not be able to cope.
Not to mention this $7,210,718,887,247.47, the Current Us national dept. China is in the same situation as America , but with a considerbaly worse situation, but China and Europe have leant billons and billions to the US. Imagine what would happen if there was a banking crisis in China, the US economy would collapse.

I would agree with you to a large extent, but the capitalist approach to government, such as taking short term profits over long term security has only gone to inflate this iminant crisis.
I disagree with your assertion that economies always recover, the british Empires most certainly did not. I doubt that the USA's will either, the world order is going to switch in our life time I do certainly hope.

I'm sort of speaking about how influential and intelligent people are treated. Between being branded with non applicable mental illnessess, imprisoned falsely and ostracized, to me it is clear that the system is in complete failure. Because it is that obvious. How much fear can be forced onto the public? Especially when they are aware of the truth as it pertains to influential thinkers. They respond with the better him than me response, while they people get taken away to cheers and ovations. They are entertained by programs that function only on the mass manipulation of individuals by preying on their instincts and needs. They are cowed into submission under the command that they better enjoy it, or it might be them Or their kids. As soon as we stop being afraid and start doing something about it, the better off we all will be.
Anyway, TV is the prime example. Look at the changes in it over the last decade. Compare ads. Shows. Movies. The trend is not as startling as it is OBVIOUS. The next step is literally a retrogression into ancient times. Reality TV is one step away from including death as part of its program. Then there are those that believe that it already is. So as to pave the way for the day when the public NEEDS to be reminded once more - better him than me.

Economies based on slavery and subjugation usually have a limited life span. Economies based on wealth creation and free trade always prosper.
And it's mostly Governments which take the short term profits - massive borrowing and pork barrelling taxpayers funds to win an election. Most of us are still paying the price for past Government mis-management.

Come on Enigma, get serious. We're not going anywhere soon, tiger.
GDP, military capability, world economic holdings, and technology all continue to rise in the USA.
"America will soon fall", or words to that effect, is among the most unsubstantiated, rhetorical, hollow, meaningless statements made on this board, and it is made en masse at that. It is indicative of what a bunch of pinko sheep many of you are.
What is really disappointing is that you submitted this diatribe, Enigma. I usually count you among the more reasonable, original, and logical of the leftists, and I expect more from you that this re-hashed amateur commentary based on the fallacious idea of America somehow being on the verge of collapse, when in fact the opposite is true. The USA is actually very much still growing and developing, not declining.
The only thing you need to say bye-bye to are your antiquated, oppressive dictatorial communist ideologies.

This is unjustifiable, as it's plainly false. A totalitarian regime - a dictatorship - is not communism. The pseudo-socialist nations this world has seen in the likes of the USSR and Cuba are not, have never been and probably never will be communist.
This is old ground.... There has never been a communist society in modern history.

Oddly, this is often one of the traits that seperates the left from the right... The latter expects things 'now' whereas the former tends to be more patient... to accept that some things, such as the fall of any empire man could build, is inevitable.
The US will not last forever CI, but I agree there is no sign of it's self destruction in the near future. I would be surprised however if it still existed in the form it is (either depreciated, appreciated or stagnated) in one hundred years. Although many purely seek the downfall of the 'big bad guy' on your side of the pond, I'm more interested in trying to educate people, like yourself as to what communism actually means so that when the US Empire finally falls it is replaced with something a little more palatable.

dictionary's are for dorks
the word capitalist is distinct from the word capitalism
an idiot, or moron like you, would look at these words and think "I am living capitalism as an economic regime. So, I must be a capitalist" and that is how capitalism functions. by permitting the neverending stupidity and fascade to continue as long as possible. for if its participants EVER see it for it is, they would revolt. that quickly.
a capitalist is an entity who controls the means of production. such as the factory. in communism, ALL own the means of production. so the factory owner forces people to work in his or her factory so they don't starve to death. forces people to fight so they don't starve to death. and so on. in communism, people work in the factory so people DON'T force them to in order to eat. the fight so people DON'T force them to fight. the difference is that simple.

I say distinct but do not mean seperate
in the sense that there is not a necessary connection between them
the words capitalism and capitalist

What we basically have here is leftist scum that are desperate enough to wither in vehement denial of the definition of both capitalism and capitalist, no matter how easily they have been proven erronous.
Commie-pukes, just capitulate on this one, the facts are easily referenceable and quite clear.
