A teacher’s perspective: Firing Day at a Charter School

[bvar22]

26. Just as we will never get rid of "Terror",

so to we will never get rid of "Capitalism".
Capitalism is a natural condition of man,
and will always exist.
Trying to Stamp It OUT is a Quixotic Mission.

I WANT to be able to trade my goods and sweat equity to improve my economic situation.
Everybody does.
You do too, whether you admit it or not.
Profit is a great incentive, and fair competition produces superior goods.
The Problem is Unrestrained Capitalism that allows the unfair accumulation of Wealth and Concentrated Power.

The European countries, especially those in Scandinavia have demonstrated that an enlightened blend of Socialism and regulated Capitalism produces good results and a high quality of living.

The problem in the USA today is that our government, with the help of BOTH dominant political parties,
has completely abdicated its responsibility to restrain Capitalism through regulation,
and has lunged headlong into the abyss of Privatization of the Commons.
