RE: Cape Town's water apocalypse

Righton, though it seems strange as it is certainly a well meaning system, especially in contrast to Capitalism. Communism implies caring for all while Capitalism is basically the fittest rule.

If you believe Communism has killed more people than Capitalism then I'd suggest some alternate reading.

Capitalism has been behind almost all atrocities, including the communising of the Soviet Union and China.

Capitalism has been behind the replacement of almost every legitimate government on every continent with illegitimate factions, sustained with the objective of undermining any force which competes with US political and world domination objectives. These include Asia and particularly East Asia, Africa, South America, the Middle East and even Europe.

I am no communist but I certainly abhor the way in which Capitalists have applied the maxim "All for us and nothing for anyone else" meaning their cosy group rather than capitalists at large.

Both systems have been grossly misused but Capitalism's misuse has been more carefully secreted from the public eye as the sheeple have been manipulated via the most powerful of all weapons the world has ever seen, being modern media, in the form of radio, television the Internet and social media.

Both systems have been misused by the same entities which manipulate governments and world powers, primarily through debt slavery.

Here are some sources of note

You send me some pertinent commentary of your own on the sources I referred you to and I will consider reading the book.

You might say that I extol the precepts taught by the Master, wherever they are to be found.

I still favour capitalism over most leftist thinking but not the way it has been applied. The essence of Capitalism needs to be tempered with compassion and understanding and a greater commitment to service.

A man considered to be the greatest Industrialist and possibly Capitalist is Andrew Carnegie said some relevant things :

The day is not far distant when the man who dies leaving behind him millions of available wealth, which was free for him to administer during life, will pass away unwept, unhonored, and unsung, no matter to what uses he leave the dross which he cannot take with him. Of such as these the public verdict will then be: The man who dies thus rich dies disgraced. Such, in my opinion, is the true gospel concerning wealth, obedience to which is destined some day to solve the problem of the rich and the poor.
Andrew Carnegie

The man of wealth [should] consider all surplus revenues which come to him simply as trust funds, which he is called upon to administer to produce the most beneficial results for the community - the man of wealth thus becoming the mere trustee and agent for his poorer brethren, bringing to their service his superior wisdom, experience and ability to administer, doing for them better than that they would or could do for themselves.
Andrew Carnegie

Sadly his example and exhortations fell on deaf ears and blind eyes.
