capitalism in action.

three articles today on the effects of capitalism.

really useful for your studies next year when we deal with MARXISM and MARKET LIBERALISM.

here's an article about 'cannibalistic capitalism', low wages, and how our society is affected.
think about: have you got a job? what's your pay? who decides who gets paid what?


here's an article about 'everythingism', dealing with who people in our society want everything, preferably immediately, but aren't prepared to work for it... think about: what does the article suggest about the illusion of choice in our society? is the idea that we can do anything we want, be whoever we want, actually realistic?

and finally, here's an article about the 'comfortable numbness' we feel when faced with the issue of homelessness, and people living in caves... think about: what do you feel when you see a homeless person? what can be done about the issue? why are there homeless people anyway?
