91. you assume we are all capitalists here.
that we support the economic status quo as it is -- and don't want radical changes.

well, this ''we'' doesn't fit in that category -- and if the current violence in the middle east -- or the abandonment by the people who really do commit class warfare of the people of new orleans -- climate warming -- doesn't give a clue that capitalism has failed -- then there is no sense in talking to you.

wealth is not infinite -- and people who have most of wealth are consequently -- by accident or whatever -- denying it to someone else.

that's the world.

and it has to change.

humans have to evolve into something other than hierarchical monkeys.

but if being a baboon makes you get all giggly and happy -- then more power to you.

for now.
