Capitalism's goal: profit. Decision makings drive when profit is the bottom line- what gets the most money. The idea that you can gain pass the station you were born into is pure luck or if you end up "studying hard" for that one idea which will end up making enough profit [without stomping on any toes of those bigger then you] to feed those above you and around you so you can have the left overs to trickle down to those who were in the station you were born in. Now both those instances the probability of that actually happening is pretty slim. Seriously before you defend capitalism through numbed minded insults do the math. There is no way for everyone to compete in this. It is a free reign freak show. If you have the possibility to steal the show or tip the scales in your favour who ever is above you will try their damnedest to snuff you out- the bottom line is profit- this is a pretty finite number to work with. If they created enough money to allow and support everyone who genuinely could be giants to be giants the dollar would lose its value.
I worked full time min.wage [just under $8 at the time] splitting 1300 in rent+ utilities 3 ways and I had absolutely no money. I traded food money for activity money trying to keep a balance in there- scrapping by. That is the reality.
Unfortunately Marxism got a terrible name from Russia, communism. Hitler furthered the hate towards this by promoting the values and disregarding the names.
Lets talk about Hitler;
The anger and hate Hitler had for capitalism destroyed many peoples [the ones who are unable to rationally think about the ideas separate from how they were enforced] ability to see the ideals he preached for what they actually are, just destroyed them.
He essentially went crazy with rage and killed so many people because he was right in the initial idea he tried to start with. Pettiness does not gain followers; hating a race of people which in is your own blood due to unknown factors and creating a war that killed millions because of this hate- all because of some dispute with his mother? or the jewish collectors didnt like his art work, this just doesnt seem plausible or even sane to think- its petty. Yet he got support from around the world even to walt disney- someone creating things with children in mind.
The victors write history has never been so blatantly in your face than with that one. Jew was a euphemism in which is still used today for money hoarding [thus the blue eyed, blonde hair children you'd seen in concentration camps with a star of david in video from that time]. Hitler did horrendous, horrible things because he was that afraid of capitalism and what it would bring to this world. I hate his actions, even him as a person but he was right.
An argument for "what is in a name"
Capitalism existed before present day- the system for slavery was the same as capitalisms system is set up now. The only differences- instead of whips, we starve. Instead of punishments, we ridicule. Instead of a hand full of people in golden/jeweled jewelery parading in their respective area.. well thats pretty much the same except there is technology bridging the gap.
The idea of people plunging into chaos only exists if there is coveting to be had. Take away the idea of someone else having it better, replacing that with the idea of self importance [in the sense of you are a cog in which what you do does matter and does help everyone to survive as much as yourself] things could work. What about the lazy/no goods? Maybe they are like that because they do something rare- they think beyond existence as we know it. There are many wasted minds which eventually shut down due to their very skill being of no use in the world as we know it. It only takes a little math to see the dangers of living in a capitalist world. I say its a world unto itself because it is a delicate system and politics do matter when it comes to capitalism.
So we've adhered to Marxist thinking now?
No, by accepting this truth we are adhering to knowing that resource based thinking is how we will survive.
These Communist and Marxist system no matter how "higher thinking" they may be always fail, why?
Capitalism is a monetary based war.. or competition as it likes to be known as. The basis for a resource based system where we get what we need and enjoy each others talents in a shared community is not based in trying to win anything- how can it win a fight its not participating in? Capitalism will crush its contenders, its systematically designed to do so, but it will also destroy itself- as we see today. Death Star would be the most appropriate name to call this system. The system shines bright like a star but it will kill us all.
How can it kill us all?
The consequences of profit for a bottom line allows you to completely ignore any and all other information which does not allow top dollar.
Can there be moral capitalism?
First off, by moral capitalism I am talking about free market with resources and welfare being top priority. To answer the question, only if the highest profit includes survival and resource realism.
