I've decided that basically capitalism is ruining our world.

I really never wanted to have to say that.

I'm really not *one of those people*.

But, I think we have a problem.

It's basically a form of government, and it controls and oppresses the citizens.

I'm sure it doesn't need to be this way.

The primary problem is the centralisation of power.

The argument that “people vote with their wallets“ is somewhat true, but unfortunately the majority of people do not demonstrate a capacity for free thought, and even when they do it is difficult for them because 'branding' has saturated every area of their world.

I'd just shut the fuck up and play the game, but I really despise dishonesty, manipulation and exploitation.

John.
