you know what the problem with the world is? free market capitalism. u may think its done pretty well, and it has in a way (like making succesful economies in America and, coming soon, China), and certainly it beats communism (at least as its manifested itself so far). but the problem is that it degrades to social fabric and morality of our society by pitting everyone against each other.
in the system as it exists here, theres a limited amount of money that people can get, and we all want money and need money. not only that but so many of us equate money with success and therefor work very hard to get as much as we can. we pursue it to the exclusion of ethics. we always say "its just buissness", as if the acurement of wealth makes anything we do OK just because we were making money while doing it.
how can a society expect to have a strong moral fiber if its citizens are constantly trieing to steal from each other? think in order for a society to truely prosper is if the members of that society cooperate completely. how could this be acheived? i dont know...yet, maybe i'll blog about it in the future.
until then, fight the power!
