Reply #56: the alternative?

Separate systems for different people. Let the capitalists compete with the capitalists, let socialists work in a socialist structure, let anarchists exist without regulation (like the clergy and non-profits today---they don't pay taxes) and let labor just work without having to compete like a Harvard-graduate with others trying to separate them from their money.

The problem is, some people are inclined to be capitalist, some socialist, some anarchist, some just wanna work for a wage and go home and drink a beer until tomorrow. But, in America, all of these groups must be beholding to the group in charge---in America it's the capitalists, in Russia it's the communists---and all 300 million must act as captialists or communists, even if they just want to be a non-profit charity.

That is the basis of exploitation---wealthy captialists who can out-compete in business ordinary workers who just want to make a living, but not have to shop, shop, shop every day for a better deal. The capitalists will always win when they must compete against the non-capitalists. It's like having a pro football team that will only play games against elemetary shcool teams.
