Interesting example of how insideously Capitalism works, on today's BBC news.
Playboy, One of the worlds biggest producers of pornography, is marketing a range of stationary and clothing for schoolchildren.
This stuff,bearing the Playboy logo is being presented in shops and catalogues beside well known childrens brands like Disney.

This practice is known as "normalising" the brand, making it more acceptable.

The marketing of women as sex objects is one Is now a multi billion pound industry. Perhaps it is just a coincidencebut apparently the new "free" Capitalist countries of Eastern Europe are top contributers to this industry...isn't progress wonderful.

By the way Teribus, despite your sense of humour bypass, you are quite correct, any system, Capitalist or Communist which attempts to build an infrastructure to enslave the many for the benefit of the few will ultimately fail.
At least Communism went in relative peace.

Don't believe for one second that Capitalism will just slip off into the quiet night....Ake
