Imagine: Capitalism is Dead. Then Speak Your Peace

[GeorgeGist]

[Ian David]

1. How much you want for that peace symbol? n/t

[KansDem]

3. No way! I'm prepared to pay $5 more than you!

By doing so, I will crush my competition while professing that "competition is good!" :woohoo:

[Ian David]

4. I'll find someone who can make knock-off copies in slave labor conditions for less. n/t

[Hugabear]

2. Is gravedancing acceptable in this case?

We could have a swell party on top of capitalism's grave.

[blindpig]

6. It would be the greatest party in history.

Dance the night away.

[Occam Bandage]

5. "I sure wish I had listened to the wingnuts and stocked up on guns and ammo."

[cherokeeprogressive]

7. Some new form of capitalism shall rise from the ashes of the old, just like the mythical bird.

Somewhere, someone will decide they have a need for something they either don't have, or can't make themselves. Someone else will recognize the opportunity to provide whatever is needed, and produce it, at a profit to themself.

[blindpig]

9. Not what capitalism is about.

Capitalism is about exploiting workers, the capitalist retaining as much of the value of the worker's labor as he can get away with.

You don't need capitalists to provide what is needed, labor does that, capitalists are simply parasites. You are channeling Ian Rand.

[Vidar]

8. Drive a stake through its heart and dance all night.

[denem]

10. We all work for the state and are waiting

for it to wither away?

[killbotfactory]

11. Oh no, who will make me hamburgers for the lowest wage legally allowed?

Who will I have to pay rent to?

Who will take all the profit I create during the workday?

This is horrible, just horrible.

[Delphinus]

12. I'm really interested in this,

so am kicking and hope that more people will respond.
