My family used to tell me that I would become less radical as I got older.
Lol.
Still waiting.

I'm bleeding right now because of capitalism.
Let me explain one by one:
* capitalism produces shitty products that have to be replaced regularly
* they send them in oversized cardboard boxes to be able to add more plastic around the product
* the cardboard box is more durable than the product
* i have more than once been yelled at by neighbors for putting boxes in the wastepaper bin without making them smaller first (usually they were filled with wastepaper, but the neighbors didn't see that)
* if capitalism didn't produce so much garbage, or there was enough money for a more frequent garbage collection, the neighbors wouldn't be stingy about space in the bin
* but capitalism wants us to be angry and miserable
* to avoid getting yelled at again I just tried to crunch a very big, very sturdy box
* I stepped on it
* the box didn't give in
* i slipped
* fell
* and hit my head
* hard
Die capitalism, die!

The mutant version of capitalism we have now -- overwhelmingly tilted toward financial looters and their cartels -- is destroying community after community. This is deliberate, not an unintended outcome. Local hospitals are just one notably egregious example.

@dangillmor #nationalize everything. Utilities, housing, factories, farms, markets, all of it.
Take the owner class out of the picture. Then the people can work towards a way to organize it all for the benefit of all.
