@capitalism sucks “In midsummer of 2009, one third of the capital equipment in the United States stood idle, while some 17 per cent of the workforce were either unemployed, enforced part-timers or “discouraged” workers. What could be more irrational than that!” -David Harvey
@Braden I see a lot of professionally published books. And a table…. and pvc piping! Do you think they bought these items from govt. owned manufacturers??? Just curious. (And the shoes, and hoodies, and scarf?)
@Anonymous Are you implying that they’re being hypocritical by engaging in capitalism while propagating communism?
They’re not living communism because communism is a society, not just a bunch of people who don’t feel like doing the capitalist thing. Right now, there are no alternatives to living with and in capitalism, if you’re living here. No matter how much you want something else.
@lol lol, while i don’t agree with communism or whatever it is those people are tabling about, i gotta say… calling other people ‘sorry looking’ and ‘failures’ sure seems to indicate you’re rather unhappy with your own life, otherwise you wouldn’t be bothered to say something so… bitter and douchey
@Ferris -Ism’s in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an -ism, he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, “I don’t believe in Beatles, I just believe in me.” Good point there. After all, he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. I’d still have to bum rides off people.

@That's seriously the stupidest argument against Communism I’ve ever heard. Someone clearly slept through CC.
@Anonymous they say that capitalism is a failure. but honestly, they are pretty sorry looking people.
i’m pretty sure they are failures.

@Anonymous You say you want a revolution…
@Haha I wonder if Obama sent them?
@I've been told that everything I’ve been told about Communism is wrong. Is this also wrong?
