Capitalism Has Run Amok


London, Cairo, Tripoli, Yemen or Madison, Wisconsin. It doesn't matter anymore. The wealthy have stolen all the resources and the poor want their payoffs. Neither side even cares about the other at all so the riots will spread around the globe. If you don't have a future then fuck-it, burn it all to the ground.

500,000 people turned out Saturday in London to protest budget cuts. The UK is broke and Moodys is considering a sovereign downgrade. It's impossible to borrow to pay off the poor when your credit rating goes south. The wealthy moved their money overseas to protect it, so it no longer benefits Crown subjects.

Like the UK, the US is broke, so the payoffs to the poor will come to an end. Poor people will be cold, hungry, sick and uneducated but they won't die from it until the middle class is reduced to their lot too. One day, in London, Athens, Cairo or Madison, the rioters will do their worst and cops won't show up. Why fight them when cops are taxed at 80%? Let it burn.

Capitalism won't work if local capitalists won't invest in the local economy to create jobs and wealth. If all of the capitalist's investments are in other places the locals will become poor and revolt, taking the capitalist's money. Who could blame them?

I can no longer argue for the rich or the system. It's utterly corrupt. Capitalism has run amok. Burn it down!
