I’m not anti-capitalist; it has done a lot of good for the world. But unbridled capitalism, untethered to ethical considerations, has done great damage too. It helped create the problem and it is not the answer now. This isn’t about profit for anyone; it’s only about saving lives

Not really. Everything you think money has done is actually just Labor, Technology and Infrastructure. Capitalism is a way to control people by controlling economics. Limiting the money supply limits economic activity, and creates poverty. It's institutionalized inequality.

Right, there is a difference between classic capitalism that keeps things going for all and unbridled “cowboy capitalism” that rounds up profits for only a select few leaving out the rest of us.

I hear you loud and clear, Marianne. You’re on board with the abolition of all classes and the liberation from work. We don’t have to say it. Gotcha. Sincerely Your Comrade, Krapp.

Did you lose your ability to read the stars? Is the orb not speaking with you?

Amazing. You should run for president, again... However ethics and a soul could get you in trouble. Washington has problems with people like you and Bernie.

no it hasn't, ms. w. industrialization, germ theory and hygiene, borlaug's green revolution, and government investment in technology have. capital has redirected the gains from these toward itself and away from the masses
