The gross evils of capitalism have become too apparent...too bad, another wingbat religion going down the tubes...
Worldwide poll: Vast majority say capitalism not working

November 9th, 2009

Dissatisfaction with capitalism is widespread around the globe 20 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall that heralded the demise of European communism, a poll released Monday showed.

Only 11 percent of people surveyed across 27 countries thought free market capitalism is working well, while nearly a quarter -- 23 percent -- said the system is "fatally flawed." A bare majority, 51 percent, believed its problems can be solved with more regulation and reform, the poll said.

In only the United States (25 percent) and Pakistan (21 percent), did more than one in five people agree that capitalism works well in its current form, the poll conducted for BBC World said.

The survey of 29,033 adults comes after the worst global financial crisis since the 1930s Great Depression and amid celebrations of the anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, which abruptly ended the Cold War.

And it reflects growing concerns among the public and politicians that the world's economic system has failed to live up to its promises. In Europe's post-communist eastern bloc, where residents have lived through both communism and capitalism, a poll released last week suggested capitalism is losing favor with the public.

Research by the Pew Research Center showed the percentage of people approving of democracy was markedly lower in the former Soviet bloc compared to a similar 1991 poll.

Eighty-five percent of respondents in East Germany supported the change to democracy, but even this was down six percent from 1991. The figure dropped 24 percent in Bulgaria, 20 in Lithuania, 18 in Hungary and eight in Russia.

Japan's recently-elected center-left prime minister, Yukio Hatoyama, launched a broadside last month against the excesses of capitalism in his first parliamentary address since taking office.

Speaking on his vision of a kinder, gentler society guided by the spirit of "fraternity," Hatoyama said market forces were useful for a country but must be tempered in order to create a livable society.

"It is self-evident that free economic activity in markets invigorates society," said Hatoyama, 62, who swept to power in August elections, ending more than half a century of almost unbroken conservative rule.

"But it is also obvious that the idea of letting markets decide everything for the survival of the strongest, or the idea of 'economic rationalism' at the expense of people's lives, does not hold true any more."

Doug Miller, chairman of polling firm GlobeScan, which co-conducted the BBC survey, said: "It appears that the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 may not have been the crushing victory for free-market capitalism that it seemed at the time -- particularly after the events of the last 12 months."

What a maroon. There are many systems worse than capitalism, like socialism and communism... and those are the very economic systems he advocates. We'd be better off with feudalism.

The funny part is, the more "socialist" the country the poll is taken in, the more the respondents claim that capitalism has failed... not understanding that the systems they have which are failing and they are complaining about are socialist with only a minimal underpinning of capitalism that keeps it afloat.

"Doug Miller, (who?) chairman of polling firm GlobeScan, (what?) which co-conducted the BBC survey, (lol "co-conducted" and the socialist BBC!) said: "It appears that the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 may not have been the crushing victory for free-market capitalism that it seemed at the time -- particularly after the events of the last 12 months."

No, no, of course not. It could very well may have been-- quite possibly in the infinite realms of possibility, speaking hypothetically, perhaps, but feasibly if all things are feasible-- a crushing victory for totalitarian governments and communist systems (and their wannabe socialist siblings).

Indeed, in a way, apparently, it could seem, in a manner of speaking and from a certain point of view, the ultimate victory, or last laugh, if you will, may have been East Berlin's, particularly after the events of the last 12 months have irrefutably proven beyond a reasonable doubt that Western Capitalism has been--like Iraq was, once upon a time--a debacle, an abysmal failure, an appalling disaster, just like the entire Bush presidency from Day One, and election day on November 3with the crushing defeat of the Republican AND conservative candidate in congressional district NY23, the single most important and epic contest of the entire election and the final arbiter of the successful Realignment of the United States republic into a green, "people-powered" proleterian collective where the only multi-millionaires allowed are tax-evading liberals who decry other millionaires and tax-cutting economic policies.

And if you refuse to believe me, than you're a moron. Like Bush. (If not Hitler. Like Bush!)

How does all that sound?

Deranged? Unhinged? Moonbatshit crazy?

Just plain, prosimian stupid?

Yup.

btw, stankey, do you ever think independently apart from how the Daily Kos tells you to think and what to "say"?

What he--this particular Stankey--"says" are the words of his Kool Aid mixing gurus who give him his daily swill of Kool Aid and then send him off to vomit them back out on the commentary section walls of right wing blogs in the Alinskyite tactic of incessant harrassment and the ill-bred impulse to vandalize and spray graffiti.

from Bartcop:

NY-23 was a damaging setback for the hard right. Hoffman had the energetic support of Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck,
Rush Limbaugh and the Fox bastards as well as big bucks from their political auxiliaries. Furthermore, Hoffman was
running not only in a district that Rove described as "very Republican" but one that fits the demographics of the incredibly
shrinking G.O.P. The 23rd is far whiter than America as a whole - 93 percent versus 74. It’s rural. Its income and education
levels are below the norm. Only if the district were situated in Dixie - or Utah - could it be a more perfect fit for the narrow
American demographic where the McCain-Palin ticket had its sole romps last year.

If the teabagging right can’t win there, imagine how it might fare in the nation where most Americans live.

Some G.O.P. leaders have started to notice. Mitt Romney didn’t endorse Hoffman despite right-wing badgering to do so.
On Wednesday, Michael Tom Steele dismissed the right’s mantra that somehow Hoffman’s loss could be called a victory
In the aftermath of this clear-cut demonstration of how Republicans can win, the revolutionaries are still pledging to
purge the party’s moderates by rallying behind more Hoffmans in G.O.P. primaries from Florida to California.
And they may get some scalps. But Tuesday’s loss revealed that they’re better at luring freak-show gawkers into
Fox’s tent than voters into the G.O.P.’s. As if to prove the point, protesters hoisted a sign likening health care reform
to Dachau at the raucous tea party rally convened by Michele Bachmann on Capitol Hill on Thursday.

What, deleting yourself, stankey? Censoring yourself? On second thought? Nevermind?

Good boy. Be careful what you say, stankman. Pressure's on.

I suppose it's always easier to just steal other people's ideas and words--in lieu of your own.

But that's called plagiarism. It's theft. And even though there is, apparently, some understanding between the Kool Aid distributors like you and the Kool Aid mixing gurus, I think your gurus expect to be quoted and credited for their work, and only expect you to widely distribute it, not chop it up to your liking and present it, unquoted and uncredited, as your own.

Biden did it in college and got an F, and almost the boot. Then he continued to do it as an adult and senator, plagiarising the words of a British Labor Party politician in a speech.

And I remember Obama doing it during the campaign, when he plagiarised the "Just words?" spiel.

And, of course, the "Hope & Change" schtick was plagiarised from "Man From Hope" and "It's Time For Change" Bill Clinton's '92 campaign.

But what can you expect, really, from a party that has, for the past four decades plus, been churning out copycatting, JFK doppelgangers in lieu of offering anything new and original, save the gimmickry of geographic origin and, most recently, race?

"from Bartcop:"

Good job! You credited the source! But is it originally from "Bartcop," or Frank Rich?

Oh, right, like "X-Mas."

You vampires can't even bring yourselves to write out the name "Christ."

You have to X it out so it doesn't cause you to break out in hives and have convulsions.

Do you hiss and recoil at the sight of crucifixes, too?

"Let me get this right, someone who consistently posts articles and youtube videos is complaining about cut and paste?"

Yes. Can you discriminate between posting credited Youtube videos and properly credited articles (I provide links to them now, as proper) to stealing someone else's work, tweaking it here and there, but otherwisde posting it uncredited, unquoted, and presented as your own, stankee?

You're a thief and a fraud (on top of being a liar, stupid, and a lightweight).

Now can you please leave before I evict you? You're lowering the blog value here.

It's "you're so smart," not "your so smart."

What I was saying about "providing links now" is that before I would indeed cut & paste (though not really that often) but still--always--credit the author/source.

I later realized that all serious authors prefer having their work linked to for the purpose of counting hits, and, of course, both the authors and/or the publishers have ownership rights that often forbid unaccountable, freewheeling distribution of their property, and I honor both the likely wishes of the author and copywrite law.

There is no similarity with my cut & pasting and yours.

"...no one would even know of your existence if I hadn't stumbled on here..."

Right. That particular stankey (there's a bunch using the same blog account named "Stanley") is the lefty troll fathead who used to harass Evan Sayet at "Sayet Right" blog.

Fathead isn't even an American citizen but a Canadian Polack named Sirkowski who likes to draw the kind of cartoons that will never break out of the alternative, underground genre (and he is not talented enough to be another Robert Crumb, his hero).

Fathead (a.k.a. Sik) took a Worldwide beating from me over on his turf, the group blog called The Liberal Avenger, years ago.

I was eventually deleted there.

To find out why, you can use his own projected definition of what I would be doing--and why--if I deleted him here.

Then I literally stumbled across him (not followed him) over at the neutral turf of Evan Sayet's blog, at "Sayet Right," and continued to give him a public beatuing there, right in front of his comely girlfriend, Blossom, who became enamored with me in Darwinian recognition of the better man and fitter mate.

Envious and enraged as only a beta male (at best) can be, he followed me back here, seeking revenge, on my own turf, for his emasculation in front of his girlfriend (who has since dumped him, it appears, making his vindictiveness hellbent).

And that's how--as he downplayed the epic drama--"stumbled into me."

What we have now is "the superior" Khan on the Enterprise on an obsessed mission to destroy Kirk.

Overconfident, he strikes a macho, toughguy pose, and alternatingly hahaha heckles and angrily bullies both the captain and his crew, barking out threats and his own own orders in an impotent attempt to assert his penectomied self as the new alpha male captain here.

Note his preoccupation with your host's penis, and his insecure, fish-storied need to advertise his own as being unusually large.

His fondness of using the word "pea," however, is, as all things he spouts, a projection.

It's quite amusing to hear him try to swear like a sailor and hearing words like "pissant," "grotesque," and, of course, "peabrain" coming out of his mouth, instead, making fj's observation that he had metamorphisized into a gay cowboy quite apropos (he was castrated by me over at Sayet's, after all).

But, as in the movie +The Wrath of Khan,* wherein Khan faced the same outcome there as he did in the television episode over a decade before--i.e. he loses--the same thing happens here to fathead as happened at The Liberal Avenger and Sayet Right.

And that's why he is the angriest and most malicious stanky of the bunch.

I got their number, fj, and it's the same for these lowly blog trolls as it is for their gurus and alpha males higher up the food chain.

stankee envied:

"WOW! What a vivid imagination you have. Let me try this make crap up out of thin air thing too:"

"The moderator, after getting harassed by everyone who has ever met him for being a blowhard incapable of making a point after stringing thousands of words together..."

Well, not "everyone." Usually just the people who can't keep up and then blame me for going too fast and diving too deep.

"...runs a tiny little blog..."

It's a lot bigger than yours.

"...frequented by a handful of braindead rightwing zombies."

The only braindead zombies who frequent here are you, the other stankeys, and stankee.

And you're all left-wing.

"He occasionally offers anonymous oral sex to some posters..."

That's a tired old lie, Lenin, and you know it (but if you repeat it over and over again...).

As you well know, I once suggested to lana banana that she could suck my dick, but not to offend her. I was under the impression that liberal women don't even consider that to be sex, anyway, and do it for guys that they don't even like very much.

Ok, I lied. I suggested it more than once.

"...then gets bent out of shape and bans dissent for awhile."

I do not, liar. Do you think that I'd put up with all your libelous crap against me and the treasonous attacks on my country for a moment if I was as you characterize?

What, do you think that you're still here because you tricked me into feeling that I should be afraid of you calling me a coward if I crush and squish you under my foot and rub you out of existence, as you deserve?

Think whatever you want, fool. Republicus is excellent flypaper to catch liberal flies, which I then pick apart with tweezers and examine under a microscope, and have learned, quite some time ago, exactly what makes them tick.

And it's no great mystery. Like the other brainless flies, you basically spend your lives attracted to the smell of dogshit and find some every morning at your favorite lefty Kool Aid factories, where you land on the dogshit there and crawl all over it and rub your hands together and puke and then suck your own vomit and the shit back up, drinking your fill and loading up before flying off and finding your ways into people's houses, where you annoy the hell into them by incessantly buzzing around and landing on everything to puke out your leftwing dogshit before the humans finally have enough and whack you with a rolled up newspaper (but only *The Wall Street Journal* or *The Washington Times*).

Sure, I gave you all the boot once after I made the mistake of appealing to your better natures (you have none) and graciously opened the house and extended the curfew here in an open forum.

And you gremlins all showed your gratitude by hooting, hollering, harassing my other guests, throwing plates, overturning the furniture here, and drinking water out of the toilet bowl (because you obviously love my shit, too).

So I ended the party and got you the f.o. one day, if only to remind you who the Captain Kirk of this Enterprise is (and it ain't fathead--he's Khan).

That's my prerogative and certainly within my power, and if you don't like it, that's too bad for you, stankee.

But you better learn it.

And I banned anonymous comments for 48 hours, fool. You're the ones who got bent out of shape and disappeared until you came up with the Trojan Horse of "Stanley."

*Star Trek* kicks ass.

Don't tell me: You're a Star Wars kinda guy, right? I can tell.

"...and lives in his parents basement."

Wrong.

"He hopes to one day be able to actually speak to a woman."

Nonsense. I hope one day I can send them all off on a long Carribean cruise and finally have some peace and quiet.

Stankey derided:

"Hahahahhaa...that's some funny, shit, John...paranoid, delusional, completely insane... yet fanciful and most amusing as only a lunatic can be."

That's what Polonius said about Hamlet, stankey. Before the latter ran him through.

"But a monkey as crazy as you are is probably a danger to someone...most likely small children or nanny goats."

Definitely a danger to you and other liberal baboons, stankey. That's why this "tiny little blog" looms large on your consciousness.

"I really hope someone has their eye on you...for your own good."

That's what an omnipresently surveilling and intrusive Big Brother is for, right stankey?

For our own "good"?

"I sincerely hope that I won' be posting a GOPerv article about you on your own blog in the near future."

Don't worry, stankey. I'm pretty sure I don't do anything or anyone who you wouldn't do--or would if you could, that is.

Stankey instigated:

"Stanlee, tell us more about the anonymous oral sex thing! I missed that."

I told you. I offered a former female regular here-- a lefty who went by the tag of lana banana but who then flitted and flirted about as "anonymous" (but still recognizable as lana)--to suck my dick.

"Stankee, is there a record of that in his archives?"

I think most of the interaction and courtship of lana banana are in Evan Sayet's archives.

But alas, we were star-crossed lovers and the romance was doomed.

She apparently got bored and split.

Or just wanted to gtf away from fathead and the other asshole lefty males like Blivious and Perlmutter.

No wonder so many liberal females become lesbians. Look at the liberal males.

"...or has he judiciously removed those in the interest of propriety..."

I might just do that someday, but more out of bulldozing and steamrolling urban renewal and gentrification than "judiciousness" or "propriety."

Liberals have a weird way of bringing down the value everything they come into contact with, from blogs to neighborhoods to the employment rate.

You ruined perfectly good neighborhoods in the sprawling metropolis of Republicus with your graffiti.

"they're berry, berry beeg on propriety, you know."

Sure, when it comes to stuff like lying, plagiarism/theft, slander/libel, etc.

It's that kind of propriety which separates the principled Republican from the typical Democrat, conservative morality from liberal depravity, the good guy from the bad, the law abiding citizen from the criminal.

"Until someone looks just beneath the surface and finds there the utter chaos and rampant perversions which drive them into the wingbat 'philosophy' in the first place."

You are projecting, stankey.

"Their entire orientation is designed to control their own frightened and frightening selves..."

Right, because the Right is notorious for being entirely oriented towards control, and for being fearful.

"...which they then project outward onto the world around them."

lol

"That shadowy world of reality which is turned into a mightmare of threatening 'others' who they must denounce and destroy."
