Capitalists run the world

The world & human race was better when run by monarchs & dictators? Capitalism is the only thing that gives most of the people a shot at being fed & owning things. As for child labor & how we "exploit" other countries, were the people better or worse off before we evil white folks started to infuse money into their countries? Is it really a horrible thing that a 14 year old can go to work at a shoe factory and help keep his family from starving to death? I think some kids *here* might be better off doing that than some of the bad/wasteful things they do.

point was, site was slowing down and people wouldn't have been able to read the thing without a posting of it. And as the gentleman said in another reply, i have 4 posts to my name. i'm not a karma whore. although you might have my vote as a troll. Geesh.
