Capitalism isn't really something I can believe in, in the true sense of believing. Hell, I don't even believe in religion, and for many folks, capitalism *is* their religion. I'm all for people making a profit from their hard work and good ideas, but not at the expense of others. And that's where it all falls down for me ... the exploitation of other people, exploitation of natural resources at a rate far disproportionate to the rest of the world, rampant avarice and all that results from it, running around the world waving our big bad dick ... the list goes on and on and it's all in the name of capitalism. This is something up with which I cannot put. -Fred
