Quote:I think this is part of the problem, capitalists judge capitalism by the small scale implimentation, then expect it to work in exactly the same way on the large scale. Which of course it doesn't, just like on a small scale, in a hippy commune, Communism is fantastic, then expecting it to work the same way in Communist Russia.
Capitalism is fine when it's a couple shops accross the street from each other in a small town. But when corporations "live" for centuries and control areas larger than the largest countries, any resemblance to classical capitalism seems to fade.
