Capitalism is the only system where work that doesn't need to be done is a bad thing.

Capitalism is the only system where people producing too much stuff is a bad thing that causes recessions.



I hate when your local news station solemnly says "we have lost one hundred jobs" as if they are sailors lost at sea.

We should be rejoicing, we can achieve the same output with less labor, this should be a cause for celebration.

We now have extra labor available, what will we accomplish with this labor, will we feed the hungry, will we better educate the next generation or will we make art for all to enjoy.



We will not put this potential labor to any use, instead the workers will sit idle in poverty. They will exist a warning to all the other workers: this could be you. Do not ask for better pay and conditions or you too could be in this situation.

Capitalism is a failed system.
It has failed to raise living standards. It has failed to improve working conditions. It is the biggest obstacle in tackling the climate crisis.

Capitalism had failed an entire generation of people to the extent that they can't afford to live, they can't afford to perform the consumption required to keep capitalism running, they can't afford to raise the next generation.






A system where no one person owns an entire corporation acting unilaterally with the power of the most ruthless dictator.

Instead we need more democracy, not just in politics but in the economy. We need a system where the corporations are owned and democratically run by the people who work there and their community.

A system where housing is owned by the people who live in them and their community and exist for their community, not just greedy landlords.

We need a system where the workers and their community can democratically decide to forgo extra profits if, for example, these profits come from the pollution of a local river.

A system where Elon musk can't just buy Twitter and fire half the staff.

A system where BlackRock investments can't just buy your house and jack up the rent.

A system where if your job is automated away you can be happy in the knowledge that you and your family will be taken care of, and won't be kicked out onto to street to starve to death.
