The Greatest System on Earth

Fear of the isms: communism, socialism etc. has led to the perception that
the capitalist way is the only way to be without slipping into some sort of
preconceived abyss of eternal sociological damnation. This has led to
complacency and a general acceptance of the status quo: the norm as it is
presented to us. There are no questions asked; there are no protests: there are
no thinkers that can see beyond, to a place and time where things may even work
for all of humanity. We are told that greed is human nature, given examples of a
few people or groups in history that have exemplified this and told that it
encompasses all of humanity.
