Is Capitalism on its way out?

The following is a discussion topic to which we responded. The message is worthwhile and should be disseminated to the extent possible by concerned citizens - like you. ............................Publius

Question:
What do you think, is the American public stupid enough to drop the ideals that made us great and endorse socialism? Will the U.S.A turn into the U.S.S.A? I'd like to believe it won't happen, but I've been wrong before.

Publius:
Is Capitalism on its way out? Capitalism is ALWAYS on its way out, displaced by pie in the sky Socialism. The motive force is the whole raft of politicians who pander to the masses with those promises of pie in the sky. (What they don't tell us is that it's a mud pie and we're paying for good apple.) As long as they can fool some of the people all the time and all the people some of the time they will be a problem. Even back in Rome, 2000 years ago the ruling class had resorted to bread and circuses to keep the proletariat from rebelling. This led to the downfall of Rome and there was no competing social system to cushion the fall. That led to the development of a religious autocracy which stunted the growth of human progress for a millennium.

More recently the fall of the Marxist Socialism that had taken over the whole core of Eurasia has been cushioned by the emergence of a viable Capitalist society after we showed that a desireable alternative exists. That should make you proud to be an American.

To summarize: Yes, Capitalism is on its way out. Its skids are greased with the foolish promises of greedy politicians and the insane voting of lazy bums who want something for nothing or think the world owes them a living. It is a failure of morality, an abandonment of all that is good and true in the Human spirit. The good news is that Socialism is on its way out. A society that has too large a percentage of its population suckling at the public teat can not survive. Somebody has to draw the water and hew the wood. Europe is a good example of society in balance. The lines of the battle are clearly drawn and the political tides swing back and forth between Socialism and Capitalism, always maintainig a balance between the two. Unfortunately America has not found this balance, but has been on a Socialistic path for the last eighty years. The question is, will the American people rise up in indignation and disgust and reverse this trend? Only time will tell.

Meanwhile, if you are already filled with indignation and disgust, rise up and challenge the lies of the Socialist media. Point out the corruption and existence of a whole class of non-productive voters who are pushing us closer to the brink of chaos.
