Capitalism

Hello ignorant masses of America. My name is "your name here" and I’m here to talk to you about capitalism. In our capitalistic society most of the resources end up in the control of a small few. Those few can now decide how everyone else will work, for most of the population cannot survive without the money these few provide for them. They can even decide how their environment physically and psychologically looks and feels since they own most of the land and media anyway.

So how does this affect you? Well this means that your time and creativity are being bought from you. When all you have to sell in return for your own survival is labor, you have to sell your life away to simply exist. In your free time you can use the money to have fun but the time you spent at work is now gone and the only thing you have to show for it are the bills you were able to pay. After a while the idea of going after your own goals seems far away and no longer occurs to you. Some people actually do find ways of getting paid for doing something they enjoy but how many working people do you know that fit into this category? Mr. McHugh maybe… We should find ways of helping everyone to do what they want and live the way they want. Do you really want to live in world filled with unhappy people who never got to go after their own dreams or maybe don’t even have dreams?

There is an alternative. This alternative would be a society where everyone would be free to choose what they wanted to do and would never have to worry about starvation or a place to stay. In this way everything would be shared rather than it all being in the hands of those select few. The creativity of society would explode without bosses or tight schedules. Whatever you wanted to do you could do. You love science? Build a new more efficient mode of transportation without oil companies paying millions of dollars to stop you. You love building computers? Build the best you can and put a smiley face on it if you want to. Some hard work could be minimized by just simple changes in awareness occurring in everyday life. Think about doing the dishes at your house. If everyone, after they ate, washed their own plate no single person would end up doing them all. With a change in awareness even picking up the trash and cleaning up after others becomes a noble profession that makes the world a better place.

To begin bringing this alternative reality into existence, corporations cannot be in the hands of the few and cannot control huge resources blocking out others who wish to do similar things. Governments will have to work for the good of the people instead of the good of the wealthy and the continuation of government bureaucracy. And you, people of America, will have to unplug yourselves from the unconscious media fed jungle of lies and deceit that keep you from changing your awareness of what is really going on. When you wake up in the morning and think about your way of life are you happy? Is the life you always dreamed of? Have you ever even had a dream? Do you feel secure? In your day to day life are you adding to the problem or are you helping to find a solution?

A new society is possible but it all starts and ends with you. Corporations will not vote to lower their profits and the government will not change its ways to make you happy. If we don’t do anything things are never going to change and we’ll be living in a world filled with sleeping pills and anti-depressants. All you have to do is raise your awareness and every little thing, is gonna be alright.
