Capitalism (Part I)

One of the most wonderful and respectful things in this world is that whenever a new need is given birth, a natural process comes along to answer it, naturally. And if you don't wanna make part of it, just stand back and relax, let yourself contemplate nature, perfectness. Because one thing is for sure: it will happen.


Capitalism is the ultimate response not to economics, not to politics, not to society, not to religion, all in particular but as a response to a whole, to a society structure.

Capitalism is often seen within the economy topic only, but is this a reasonable statement? Isn't it too redundant for such a wide and comprehensive creation which rules an entire intelligent life form? Isn't it too redundant for the greatest religion ever?

Let me take us back to the past, to the end of the Second World War. Mankind needed strong leaders once again, leaders which and as any other leaders people could trust. Leaders that would work with the people for the people, for peace and stability, for well-being and rebirth from the ashes.

So leaders after WW II and as any other leader which people trusted, or were forced to, cheated on their own people as they believe themselves as demi-gods. Leaders are the most fortunate humans, in power and intelligence so they conclude even as a wild ancestral instinct that they are in position to take advantage over the rest of the humans which are less fortunate.

In result, they created the greatest scheme to control, dominate an entire life form. All in their very own hand. They created a system which make small amounts of power circulate naturally between people, which keep their dreams alive, which keep them working without questioning or contesting. People are slaves of the capital, you will born and die in debts and your life and body are your pay form. As an gratitude bonus you will be offered feelings of wild, savage competition and you will often see life made of your blood as an enemy.


Now this is the very worst my words can tell in a short text about capitalism. So it is time to think and seek the best out of capitalism, what shall we respect and learn from it?



The turn of the tide.


No matter what you and me can tell about capitalism or even feel about it, one thing is certain as it is the first thing we shall respect about capitalism: it rules an enormous group of people all around this planet for a long time now. So considering its time and space we can easily say it works and most of all it works in a big, huge scale. In the most synthetic way of evaluating we can say capitalism is the best solution for ruling and develop society so far.

It rules and looks like a strong society system as it lasts, but is it fair? Now that's a totally different point. And if you ask yourself: whats a society system supposed to do - to simply rule or to rule fairly? Now, is it possible for capitalism to rule fairly? Yes if we take control of it. Control is the key. Do politicians aim for control? Or would they take part of the lack of control? Questions are infinite and the answers turned into a chess game. So let's get back to what we can be sure.

Capitalism is efficient. It is also flexible, very flexible indeed. In the very beginning of trading and market affairs there was always the problem of fairness between traders. Once again and as you could stand back and relax watching it happening if you and me were alive, a natural process born to respond to a new need - the coin was created.
This is one of the reasons I respect capitalism the most: it offers us fairness on the buying power. Also it offers to any kind of worker, from garbage man to a surgeon, the possibility of acquiring a product from any industrial sector. You won't depend on what you produce and have in stock to acquire other products, you will simple have money to trade for anything.
