4. Democracy and capitalism are engaged

in a constant struggle. Oligarchy is the system best suited for capitalism.

6. Democracy has been knocked-up

by capitalism. A shotgun wedding was going to be performed, but capitalism refused to do the honorable thing and left poor democracy at the altar.

A few too many bastard children from Capitalism fucking with other people, Corporate "People". It's now more a shell of marriage: Capitalism fucks globally, National Democracies keep house, hoping they won't be bashed again when Sugar Daddy has had a few too many. Capitalism swears that this time, he will stay off the jungle juice, Democracy wears long sleeves and heavy makeup.

A couple of right Bastard Children of Capitalism right here:

7. That grinning fascist idiot, Stephen Moore of the Wall Street Journal, has said.....

...... that he believes capitalism is more important than democracy. He says he's not even a big believer in democracy. ..... Tells you all you need to know about that mindset, which tragically infects government.

8. Easier to say that on Wall Street and Poor Street.

Aan Oligarchy may have an interest that their upcoming human resources are educated and enriched. but those 'units' who are deemed to be defective, are dumped in a tailings dam without a vote.
