What the right and the left need to understand is that both of these terms lead to the same place as communism, which is why China is the ideal place for the corporations: cheap labour and no rights. Far from capitalism in this present dominant form being the opposite of communism it is virtually the same.Trooper Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01505221473081871071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357620132379563790.post-38342061901341728672008-01-09T19:11:00.000+00:002008-01-09T19:11:00.000+00:00'sins of capitalism'Can i ask a stupid question?Wh...'sins of capitalism'<BR/><BR/>Can i ask a stupid question?<BR/><BR/>When i bring this issue up over at ATW why do i always get told that i fail to understand the difference between capitalism and corporatism?<BR/><BR/>Also what do you think of Rasta's comment on my blog.
