Why Is Capitalism A Fantasy? (part 2 of a series)

in #informationwar6 years ago (edited)

We have become a people's farm because obviously some know more than most. But the main strength of their knowledge is rather metaphysics because the top 1% is well too aware that metaphysics rules over the physical realm. Just like Max Igan said in one of his latest podcasts, it is time to reclaim the pyramid symbol and the eye of horus, which are ostracized by many alternative media merely because the hidden hand gives them pejorative meanings, while the fact is that only Awareness and Enlightenment can end our dire conundrum. The eye also merely representing the "pineal gland", the center of consciousness in humans after all.

So-Called Free Market

Capitalism, to distance itself from centralization, argues that free market conditions are essential to its foundations but there have never been such “free markets” in the entire world history because as stated previously the goal of competition is to eliminate all competition for the sake of wealth concentration. Such dynamics is embedded in monetarism. Free Market only works as theory. If the whole isn't free, one is not free. The whole is one, and the one is whole. Nothing is voluntary if it does not go both ways. The one and the whole must mirror one another.

A competition-free model is not capitalism but Voluntaryism

What Laissez-Faire?

Anarcho-capitalism advocates for the end of centralization, which is great, but in the practical sense it is merely impossible because collusion is not preventable in any way. Laissez-faire is therefore double talk essentially benefiting the top down by subterfuge. Those who have the most always collude because they want to keep their advantages and perks.

A collusion-free model is not capitalism but Voluntaryism

The Wealth Mirage

Another inherent flaw is that capitalism cannot prevent any mania because it creates them in the first place. Value being entirely subjective, demand can be distorted very easily therefore. This is what actually causes the beginning and end of the mania itself, when nobody can afford anymore to be part of it. Only well connected traders and bankers and their cliques know when comes the time to dump (before any induced sell-off)

A Mania-free system is not capitalism but Voluntaryism

Small Lies, Big Lies

To increase the demand, embellishment is definitely required. The more competition the more lies have to be used to remain competitive. 80-90% of TV commercials are falsehoods in disguise, either unhealthy or have planned obsolescence embedded in them or made by people earning slave wages. Capitalism can never be the answer because Knowledge ever progresses, so we cannot sell lies or ignorance while claiming being omniscient. In that sense, monetarism helps perpetuate deceptions.

The quest for Truth as a model is not capitalism but Voluntaryism

Wealth Accumulation Fantasy

Nobody accumulates anything because death is what we can all expect at some point. The world is sick from passing down this neurosis from a generation to the next. It is a deception. We belong to Earth. And Earth belongs to the Cosmos. Just as any organism and subparticle, Earth and Man are fractals within the Cosmic Creation.

The proper metaphysics is not supported by capitalism but Voluntaryism

Slave Wages

Remember the colonies and their legacy? Well, without exploitation the first top wealthy families would have to been able to make it. The same can be said when Asia and Latin America began to offer "so-called competitive wages". Wealth cannot be achieved without slave wages. And the middle-class refunnels the money back to the top. Money goes into a full loop. Who benefits? Qui bono?

Once a system endorses poverty in various forms it eventually self destructs. A Natural Law. All the booms and busts throughout history have been stark warnings, which were ignored... and now a major economic world crisis is lurking because of the failure to address the issues in favor of a top-down system. That is just how life is. Really? Or is complacency at fault?

Spending Neurosis

The coercion and collusion of the few fuels the servitude of the many. A sick system that cannot be rescued. When talking in term of increasing profit and competition, all the means are good to exploit consumer spending. Propaganda becomes a way of life. "Strong spending" merely means that consumers go into more debts, which is always inflationary. Monetarism cannot survive without any form of leverage. An economic flat line would even render monetarism meaningless over time.

Nemesis Of The Truth

When a top-down manages society, the latter controls the flow of information in the mainstream media, which can manipulate people's perception using their influence. The more a top down consolidates (what we see today) the more difficult to speak out it is.

Cheapness?

When realizing the beyond staggering pollution caused by industrialization, and which is inherent to the corruption of science by and for profit, indeed the price tag is beyond tremendous, we can no longer escape the consequences. Meaning that we can no longer produce to satisfy profit seeking. This is a dead end.

Conclusion

Once a system endorses slavery and poverty in various forms, it will eventually and completely self-destruct. That's a Natural Law. Nature's Law for humans. Man is not animal because his awareness is able to understand how Natural Laws operate instead of being subjected to them like animals. The main duty of mankind is to witness and protect Creation. Therefore we must have a non-coercive premise that respects Life, and which is Voluntarysim.

Sort:  

Capitalism is a economic system specifically designed to find ways to spread the wealth of a society. Corporations are engines of economics designed specifically to concentrate the wealth and was illegal and unlawful in its inception. One can see the fraud by looking in the law dictionary's. De Facto Corporations are not legal and never have been.

I see where you a coming from and wish you'd explain this @uvas, who cannot stop lauding corporate profit optimization along with slave wages.

As for me, the problem lies in the fact that collusion is not preventable at all. As long as monetarism rules the game, regrouping wealth will continue and find other names.

thanks for stopping by @commonlaw

Corporations are economic engines designed specifically to destroy Capitalism. Once you find this to be true, one begins to see the real deal is finding ways to expose corporations for what they are.

Thanks for getting the facts right. I would not have curated your post otherwise. Your analysis seems a bit off. Let me ask a which came first the chicken or the egg question.

Which came first. Capitalism or Corporatism?

neither... I think monetarism is the problem :)

maybe should I say that in my view all systems dealing with monetarism are capitalism, fascism being an extreme form of it. My stance about a money-free society is very rational.

Maybe you are not aware that Hayek and the like were considering some form of basic income, because they understood that the free-market theory was imperfect. UBI is another big trap, and I am sure you agree on that.

but thanks for your curation @iw-curator

Wow, that was a large wall of bullshit.

Free market capitalism is simply voluntary trade. You can trade whatever you want with whomever you want.

It is based on a few simple first principles.
*You own your own body
*You own your own labor
*You own resources taken out off nature that you mix your labor with
*You can trade, gift, or use your property as long as you don't attack another
*You cannot initiate aggression, but you are free to defend yourself and your property against aggression.

It is simple, and easy to abide by. You don't need to study philosophy for years.

corporations and banks own almost everything by leverage... ownership fantasy is a fact these days... how did that happen? because THEY know...

Capitalism can never be the answer because Knowledge ever progresses, so we cannot sell lies or ignorance while claiming being omniscient. In that sense, monetarism helps perpetuate deceptions.

voluntary? So tell me how capitalism can ever become honest? Ownership was created for and by the elites, so they can own LEGALLY most of us.

dont need to study philosophy for years, sorry wrong.

voluntary?

Yes, capitalism is voluntary. Consider the votes you receive for your posts. You are not forcing anyone to vote for you. You are honestly earning that value. You do some blogging, and people send you what they think it is worth.

This happens everywhere, all the time, all over the world. People honestly provide things and people voluntarily pay value for them.

corporations and banks own almost everything by leverage

even currencies/value are own by THEM... THEY FORCE YOU/US TO SPEND with their currency games/wars ... keep your eye in the ball rolling, instead if taking small examples. The big picture says otherwise.

are the goods you sell from cheap labor countries, are your sales depending on credit cards thru paypal or cheap money from the Feds? NOTHING voluntary here... the economy is fabricated and has always been... think of the tulip mania but globally

ownership is a mirage because death strips us from our material belogins, and THEY know it

and with DARPA owning the internet, cryptos will not go anywhere. They can crash any cryptos whenever they want. Bitcoin shows us that.

Everything I have is mine. I own it.

True, I had to use shitty fiat money substitute to obtain the property that I own, but I still own my property. But don't fear, fiat paper never lasts. We will get back to a more honest money and free market capitalism will become more efficient.

Yes death awaits us all, and all our property will fall to someone alive. If you are smart enough to live in a freedom loving country with strong property rights, you will be able to construct a lawful contract known a will. With it you can distribute your property to whomever you wish upon your death.

Almost all large corps are welfare recipients, so are inefficient and gain advantage through the political means. Now it is very similar to mercantilism, but there are no monarchies giving royal monopolies, but rather our welfare socialist states. This is only as sustainable as fiat paper, so it will also not last. But this in no way is stopping you from gathering capital to better your life and the lives of your loved ones.

I am honest but do not care about how/where my money come from, that all goods I sell contribute to ecological issues and slave wages, if the currency I use dooms 70% of the country... all I have is mine. Personal responsibility??? You cannot see things at your own level only, the big picture tells otherwise. And that's Reality.

Genuine voluntaryism only cares about the WHOLE. Because if the whole isnt free, one is not free. The whole is one, and the one is whole. Nothing is voluntary if it does not go both ways.. So you have to learn to think along these lines, because eventually you or your grandkids will be proven wrong.

Humanity is a like a body, when the limb is injured you must take care of it. And that is why atheism is part of the problem, it does not care about human suffering nor the environment.

but do not care about how/where my money come from

Obviously. Otherwise you wouldn't be posting crap from scam artists and bullshitters over and over again. And that is why you only get tag bots to upvote you.

Genuine voluntaryism only cares about the WHOLE. Because if the whole isnt free, one is not free. Nothing is voluntary

What a load of bullshit and nonsense. An action is voluntary or it is not. You are forced to do something or you are not. If you make a trade of your own free will with someone who also does it of their own free will, then it is voluntary. It is as simple as that. And that simple fact is the basis for free market capitalism. Societies are considered more capitalist or less capitalist by how much freedom of trade they allow. The more that free trade is allowed, the more capitalistic a society is. As you grow in wisdom, you will find things aren't quite so black and white as all wholey voluntary or not voluntary at all. The real world exists between those extremes. And it always will.

And all of history shows us again and again that a people who abides most closely to the first principles I outlined above, are always the most prosperous.

atheism is part of the problem, it does not care about human suffering nor the environment.

You are correct. Atheism does not address human suffering or the environment. It only considers the single question on the existence of a god/gods.

As you grow in wisdom, you will find things aren't quite so black and white as all wholey voluntary or not voluntary at all. The real world exists between those extremes. And it always will.

Hysterical: growing in wisdom.... talking to yourself?

The real world is utterly bankrupt, nature is being destroyed as never before... Prosperous??? You cannot think in term of the big picture... I was right, atheism is part of the problem. So stay stuck in your bubble of perception that as long as YOU are doing fine, who cares?

what a joke and then you give @commonlaw a thank, while you never critic any corporations and turn a blind eye to their humanitarian crimes and ecocides

You are a corporatist. Even von mises was against slave wages because they always breed upheavals, that is WISDOM... that you call yourself a capitalist is an insult to the (flawed) ideology.

I defended the gold standard for about 10 years... so I know what I am talking about.
