The end of capitalism?

Is there a global feeling that something is going terribly wrong?From my perspective we are failing to accept that yet another economic system is on the edge of collapsing.Not to many years ago,our society came upon a great decision,that was of course which political and therefore social system to accept,capitalism or communism.The world's two greatest superpowers were ready to literary destroy our world,with their weapons of mass destruction,in order to imprint in the global conscience their political system.As we all know communism tragically failed as it had a big conceptual problem.All men are not alike therefore the economic retribution could not be the same.So the only economical,social and political system that raised from that debate was capitalism as it seemed logical and more democratic that the economic retribution should be free and therefore abundant to those who chose and had the possibility to work harder and longer.
In the beginning everything seemed positive for the western world.Economic growth,increase of capital,investments brought a considerable progress in compare to these states that held the communistic ideals.But right after the economic boom someone somewhere discovered and even greater problem with capitalism.This particular economic system depends itself on profit.You cannot have capitalism without profit.So what happens when all the resources are already exploit and new ones that come along cannot justify a reasonable gain to sustain capitalism's growth?
Let's take a look at today's economy.There is a global financial crisis that seems to have no end.Back in the 50's right after the second world war,with Germany and japan defeated and destroyed,the only vital industrial power was the united states,Europe was slowly recovering the war's devastation and the communist countries struggled with the lack of capital.In these terms,capitalism was ideal. In fact that was the time for the economic boom of the western world because the margins for economic growth were extremely wide.But growth and profit cannot continue unaltered for more than a have of a century.Capitalists invented many way to keep the profit high but eventually,as we all can experience there is and indisputable economic recession and crisis that affects the life of us all.To support this thesis we must only understand that capitalism today works great for countries like China,where the margins of economic growth are huge due to thirty wears of communistic depressed economy.And as these countries continue to grow and profit,where are we now?
The milestones of capitalism,the united states,the united kingdom are in economic recession.The European Union is at it's greatest economic crisis ever on the verge of collapsing,with tremendous repercussions on the euro stability.Does all this seem a little annoying and overrated?Then what about you?
Are you happy with the way your life is going?The average citizen from the united states and United kingdom to Greece and Ireland would simply tell you that they are simply not.The most common aspiration and dream is to win the lottery!Why would a hard working citizen dream to win money?That is because he is not happy with the economic and social retribution of our/his society,actual profit for them is not enough. Wining the lottery or making money fast,cutting your way through capitalism will provide you with a better way of living.With the right amount of money you can become prettier,healthier,live better and longer.But why should it be like this?It is if only a few can actually taste the benefits of capitalism. Isn't this antidemocratic or at least stupid for the majority of the population ,to support an economic system that benefits not them but only the few? So leaving apart the global economy and the complex economic terms and conditions,you can easily understand that something is going terribly wrong.
The only problem is that there is no alternative to capitalism.If capitalism worked great after the great depression of a word war,today is failing.The only alternative proposed was the exact opposite,communism which at his time also failed.So where do this leave us?There is a huge amount of people,worldwide who are ready for a social revolution.But if we overthrow capitalism and with communism out of the way,where do we go from there?
The hardcore capitalist cast,whose pockets are still profiting from this economic system will use all means necessary to convince you that without capitalism you cannot exist.This is an ancient technique used throughout human history from the kakistocracy.That when the least qualified and unprincipled citizens are put to power to decide our fate and future but instead they only promote their own agendas,aiming for their own personal gain and interest ignoring the common good.But if you are still convinced that there is no room for change and you can do nothing to make your life better you are wrong.We as a society have gained a lot in the past centuries.When there was no room for change and no alternative what so ever we managed to overcome slavery,theocracy,monarchy and divine rules,fallocracy and every other system that simply came to his end.
Despite this article i am not an enemy of capitalism and i do not support communism.I am only convinced that capitalism is at a stall and it's slowly failing and we must act as soon as possible.It is a time of change and new ideas, that can guarantee a new era of prosperity and growth for the western world.Stay tuned for the latest philosophical updates on my blog and a new economic,political and social system that can make our lives better.Thank you for the time you spend to read this article,post an promote these thoughts,thus you are actually doing something to change the world.The day will come.
