Nope, it's a work in progress, why I'm a socialist instead of a capitalist is the direction and the goals,
socialism is for the people capitalism is for the capital. :wave:
No, socialism is for the mass, while capitalism is for the individual.
Both become perverted.
Socialism is perverted because human nature dictates we (as individuals) don't give a damn for the mass, only ourselves and our family/tribe, so we will try to dominate or exploit the system for our own advantage.
Capitalism is perverted because individual labour becomes a commodity to be purchased as cheaply as possible, and those on the bottom never have an opportunity to capitalize...........and those unable to sell their labour become mere unwanted expenses to be disposed of. And the success of capitalism depends on ever-increasing consumerism.
Capitalism has done much for human society in the creation of wealth. It needs to be overseen by democratic institutions concerned with the protection of the weak........but it works.
Socialist ideas succeed only as a tool used by democratic institutions to defend the weak, to provide a check on dominant capitalist culture.
