Subject: RE: BS: The Bailout
"Helping" those exploited by Capitalism is akin to handing out goody bags to starving Africans.

When Capitalism fucks up.....as it does fairly regularly, the "blood on the ground" always belongs to the weak and the poor!

Don't get me confused with an apologist for the system....I hate it more than anything on earth.....thats why I was opposed to the Blair/Obama band aids
Our financial and social problems require "MAJOR" surgery.

Just look at the number on this forum who despite the evidence of their own eyes still see this system as "recoverable".
I'm afraid the truth is that most of the left are grade one hypocrits, no matter how little they have, it's still more than the "poor folks" and they sure don't want to lose it!

It can be argued that people who have worked long term in industrial relations, without attempting to change the system, are "enablers" who help keep the whole sorry show on the road.

The collapse of the banking system and the unrest created by the coming recession should provide impetus for a real change, providing we are not side tracked down "Obama Drive"......The real enemy are not the fat cats of industry or finance, but the voices of the evolutionary left......Ake
