Is capitalism working?

@izzythepush,

I spoke the truth and you have chosen to ignore the truth, you are a true ignoranus.

@H2O MAN,

You've been stuck through the looking glass for so long now that you don't know what the truth is. I called you a lackey because that is what you are. I know you believe that you're a spokesman for the average Joe, the rugged individual who just needs to throw off the chains of big government to let his spirits soar. You don't speak for him though, you speak for the rich man.

He's the real moocher, making huge amounts of money whilst refusing to pay his staff a living wage. This forces them to take second or even third jobs. At the same time the rich man can afford teams of lawyers and accountants so he pays significantly less in tax than those he exploits. he's got sooo much leisure time, and his workforce are living on a treadmill.

He does this by forcing everyone else to live in fear.
1) Fear of getting sick, lack of universal health care keeps the peasants in their place.
2)Fear of immigrants, set the proletariat against each other. Make sure they blame illegal immigrants for stealing their jobs. At the same time employ a lot of illegals to maximise profits.
3) Fear of being blown up. With all those commies gone America needs a new enemy, grossly over-exaggerate the threat of Islamic terrorists.
4) Fear of redundancy, the last thing the rich man wants is full employment, that way the worker might be able to demand a living wage. A labour pool is much better, keep the peasants in their place.
5) Ramp up the fear on Fox News, blame all this **** on all of the above, divide and rule.

Blame it on liberal, socialist, communist, islamic, democrats. Shout loudly.

H2O Man open your eyes, live in the real world for once.

Your being pathetic is well known.

@H2O MAN,

What is well known is your inability to formulate a coherent argument. You just repeat the Conservative/Fascist/Nazi lies. Your rich tax avoider is creating jobs in Communist China by cutting them in America. That's how it works.

Tell you what, get rid of the tax loopholes for the rich, make them pay their taxes, and use the money to do something about the roads. Trickle down is a myth, it trickles down as far as the Cayman Islands

Our government is so corrupt with our big business conservatives vying for the next election with these billionaire's money stacks in their freezers... Silenced liberal news agencies recently all bought off by greedy polluters and middle class haters... Is capitalism working anymore?

Want to know a way to fix this? We should not allow congress to control the money supply. It is lobbyists that are destroying this country. Lobbyists are just another way of saying, bribing political leaders to get favoritism passed.

Take away the ability for congress to control who gets what funding and you'll begin the process of fixing the problems in capitalism. Will this ever happen, probably not because people refuse to acknowledge that the government is the cause of the problem.

Would that do it, or would it just shift the problem somewhere else? Maybe making it illegal for politicians to vote on any issue that affects the people who bankrolled their campaign would have more effect? What do you think?

In an age of information, if people would just get wise about who they are electing and for what reason that might help. People are quick to give congress a bad approval rating but their own approval rating on how well they know their elected officials is even much worse.

It takes a scandal or an egregious overstepping of political etiquette before people take notice and become informed about who is running things and what is actually going on in Washington.

As for all of these trade agreements... the more we knit ourselves with other countries and governing bodies who think they have a judicial stake in American politics the more necessary it is that these countries and powers that be acknowledge and swear allegiance and loyalty to the inalienable principles of our declaration of independence.

The problem with trying to elect "better" politicians is that they lie to get elected. Not to pick on him but to bring up my point. Obama had not done a single thing he said he would do during his campaigning. But it is not just him as an example but many of them do it. You can't trust that what they campaign on will even get done. People always try to argue that if a politician doesn't live up to what they promised then just get them out of office. That turns into nothing but a constant disappointment process and a huge waste of time.

The only way to fix government is to fix the ways in which government functions itself, then deal with the people involved. Otherwise you are constantly chasing the target after it's a problem and you never get the problem fixed. Replacing a politician with another that utilizes the same policies doesn't fix anything and as far as I can tell, Obama is exactly like bush except black.

The moocher class are a greedy bunch. The do nothing to earn what they are given except vote for democrats. They feel entitled to what the tax paying working class earns & has... democrats are working hard to 'spread the wealth around' and increase the total number of moochers.

Democrats have enslaved the greedy and growing Moocher class.

Good summary, waterman. Dems will promise almost anything to anybody that will vote for them. Sadly more and more are voting for who will deliver them the most dollars rather than what is best for the country.
Study history and almost every notable tyrannical dictator demagogued capitalism and the rich. This included both communists and fascists. Good example is Germany's Hitler that used Jews as his favorite scapegoats because they represented the so-called evils of capitalism and everything else that was bad for the world. According to Obama's friend and mentor Jeremiah Wright, rich whites and Jews are still the cause of most of today's problems.

[/quoteYes, they are called government bureaucracies. Organizations like ACORN have also been known to do it.

The moochers class? Is that the same class that provides green energy jobs to the poor and are not complaining about government subsidies like the oil companies?
