The capitalist think their "wonderful businesses are the solution to everything, they believe they are providing jobs to everyone and that we just don't want them. (who wants to die in a mine?) Not realizing that it's these so-called wonderful jobs that are really impoverishing us by not paying us enough to keep up with inflation, and by poisoning the food we eat and the water we drink. And then on top of that the mechanize and displace workers after sucking up any competitive job in the neighborhood, so when you're fired there is no where else to go because there is no other job in town.<br /><br />Really THIS IS THE CRUX of all our arguments: Capitalism versus Socialism.<br />I'm for some blend called a Mixed Economy. Join the Green Party and make it come true. http://gp.orgMarciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11190039474711109652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13929434.post-1135271105500726972005-12-22T10:05:00.000-07:002005-12-22T10:05:00.000-07:00The problem with my sister-in-law is that she does...The problem with my sister-in-law is that she does live paycheck to paycheck and still doesn't get it.<BR/><BR/>In fact, I live paycheck to paycheck and have loaned her thousands of dollars I didn't have to keep her afloat (that's just the kind of guy I am) that she still owes me. <BR/><BR/>She still doesn't get it and it makes me sad.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01086411448964347304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13929434.post-1134089173682436222005-12-08T17:46:00.000-07:002005-12-08T17:46:00.000-07:00Great blog I hope we can work to build a better he...Great blog I hope we can work to build a better health care system.
