Doesn'...Don't machines like cars wear out?<br /><br />Doesn't that mean they DEPRECIATE?<br /><br />But do manufacturers control how fast they depreciate? So how much do consumers in each country lose on the depreciation of things like cars every year? When have economists mentioned that statistic?<br /><br />When do they discuss planned obsolescence?<br /><br />Now we have the planned obsolescence of computer software. Ever heard of NET DOMESTIC PRODUCT? They don't mention that either.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5889026769761133073.post-16077118567455580342010-11-11T01:25:06.559+00:002010-11-11T01:25:06.559+00:00The problem is not Capitalism.

Why usa or european citizens will earn more than a third world worker for the very same work?.<br /><br />Yes. USA & european citizens have to be as poor as a third world worker.

We've been living in a world of *Corporatism* (Fascism)for a long, long time. Unfortunately, REAL capitalism requires moral people to function correctly - and the same people who've been running the show on the financial side have also been working hard to destroy morality - and I'm not talking about religious morality - just human decency. In the end, they want to sell you on the idea that THEY should control every aspect of your life from cradle to grave - because they know what's good for you (and you're a bleedin' idiot, and couldn't possibly make a decent decision in that regard). It's classic Hegelian Dialectic of Thesis, Antithesis, Synthesis. The sad thing is: A lot of people are buying into the lie, hook, line, and sinker...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5889026769761133073.post-63339085946571487602010-04-12T18:30:03.488+01:002010-04-12T18:30:03.488+01:00Hello Molly

I don't want to critize the U.K. politics, but I just want to make sure that we all know that Politics is always lies, damned lies. So be careful yourself and thank you for the good work.<br />Yves ChambazChambaz Yvesnoreply@blogger.com
