Spouting shit on a Sunday.
I over heard a conversation on the bus
the other day were someone was telling their friend about one of
their children. “They've done really well for themselves.” as
oppose to what.... doing really bad?! When it comes to life under
total capitalism life is reduced to a competition, where doing well
is seen by people as having a good job, earning good money, owning
your own home and generally being a good capitalist by consuming it
all, and then standing in judgement of those who've done bad.
Human nature isn't just greed and
selfishness. Humans have been nurtured that way. Co-operation has
been sacrificed on the alter of capitalist competition, in the church
of consumption. We need to be going backwards to go forwards.
Mutual exchange working together for the common good, before things
turn really bad!
