12. Capitalism is social cancer.....
...and it does what cancers do, kill the cells (people) of the body (society) indiscriminately so that it might survive while attempting to give little or nothing back. If it can get away with it.

In nature, we all take something from life -- but we almost all give something back to it which becomes food or something of use for others. Without this kind of symbiosity the whole system would come crashing down upon itself eventually. Capitalism attempts to avoid that crash and disrupt the laws of nature. And fails. Every time.

- One doesn't have to be smart to be rich, just ruthless and uncaring. Which is itself another kind of disease....
