| CAPITALIST PIGS: THEY OUGHT TO BE EXECUTED! |
“Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom
of heaven.And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich
man to enter into the kingdom of God.” (Matthew 19:23-24)
When Jesus made that statement to his disciples, they were shocked and astounded beyond measure. It was believed
that the rich would be the first to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, because the mere fact that they were rich was taken as
a sign that they were blessed and favored by God. They reasoned that if a rich man could not be saved, then who in
the world could?
Their assumptions were based upon premises that were, and still are, patently false.But Jesus knew the truth of the
matter: All capitalists are greedy pigs, and are therefore unfit to enter God's Kingdom.When we speak of being rich, we
are not referring to those who prosper financially and are able to live comfortably: We refer to those who are multi-
millionaires and billionaires. We are talking about capitalist pigs, not successful businessmen and women.
It sickens us that vile men such as Warren Buffet, T. Boone Pickens, Bill Gates, and the Wall Street financiers are
respected as great men with tremendous business acumen, and admired because they supposedly provide jobs for the
so-called middle class, and are beneficial to the U.S. Economy. The harsh reality, like it or not, is that nobody ever got
the kind of money these men have by working for wages, or dealing honorably in business.
In order to make that kind of money, one must lie, steal, cheat, and utterly crush anyone who stands in their way, or
attempts to gain their own piece of the pie. They believe that anyone who competes with them must be killed, either
financially, or even physically in some instances. The great tragedy is that those men and women use the government
and its institutions to run roughshod over their competitors.
In order to get rich, you have to screw others, and sadly, the American people have come to believe that this is
acceptable and right. Pickens got rich by capitalizing on the need for oil, and did everything he could to drive the price
up beyond that which is reasonable. And he did it by using your money, not his own. Rich people never use their own
money to acquire anything: They use Other People's Money (OPM), and they do not even ask your permission. They
simply go to your banker and entice him into lending them large sums of "Venture Capital," which your banker takes
from your bank account without even consulting you beforehand. If the venture succeeds, all is well, but if the venture
fails, you, the account holder are left holding the bag.
When these capitalist pigs receive money for their projects, the first thing they do is siphon off a large portion of it into
their own wallets. They do that because if the venture fails, there is no way that they are ever going to be poor. The
capitalist's motto is "Pay yourself first."
Savings accounts used to pay 6% interest to passbook holders, whereas nowadays they pay less than 1%. Why is it
that when you borrow from them via your VISA card, they charge you 21% interest, but when they use your money, they
pay a measly one-quarter of a per cent? It is because your banker is a gambler, just like Pickens, and Buffet, and he,
like them, is using Other People's Money with which to gamble.
In this day and age, it is a certainty that the American worker will come to poverty, whether by unemployment or
hyperinflation, but there is no way your banker, or the high-stakes gamblers he subsidizes are ever going to suffer
need. When you have to pay $50 for a loaf of bread, and take out a mortgage on your home to fill your gas tank, then
tell me what a great system capitalism is.
Our founding fathers envisioned a republic, and an economy based upon free enterprise, not capitalism. Incidentally,
you can blame the British for the introduction of capitalism to the USA, and the subsequent degradation of its population.
Free enterprise works like this:You work hard and save your money, and you open up a pizzeria. You produce a good
product, and you earn a comfortable living in the process. You call your business Joe's Pizza. Now another pizzeria
opens up across the street from you, and he calls his business Hank's Pizza. Now Hank begins to do well also, and he
prospers. Neither is intimidated by the existence of the other. Hank uses a different recipe, and both realize that not
everyone will prefer Joe or Hank's above the other. Some will prefer Joe's Pizza, and others will prefer Hank's Pizza, but
both earn a living and do well.
If competition begins to rear its head, that competition will be based upon improvements in the quality of the product
itself, not based upon the elimination of the rival. Rivalry is healthy and respectable, but competition is diabolical and
wicked. Rivalry leads to new and better products, while competition leads to open warfare: Just ask you local Mafioso,
or your local drug dealer.
In the Free Enterprise System, nobody becomes a gazillionaire, but everyone earns a respectable living and prospers
according to their abilities and the quality of their product. That is peaceful, fair, and just, and is in accordance with the
Law of God.
Capitalism on the other hand, operates thusly: Hank opens up his pizzeria across from Joe, and becomes impatient that
not enough people are eating his pizza. Instead of waiting for his own clientele to develop, Hank desires to lure
customers from Joe, resorts to unethical practices such as degrading the quality of the ingredients in his pizza, and
lowering the price to make the customer think that he is getting more for his money than Joe can give him. But his price
lowering and product degradation doesn't work: Joe's customers like the taste of his pizza, and continue to patronize his
establishment.
There is only one solution to this problem under capitalism: Hank must gobble up Joe's business, and remove him from
that location at all costs. Hank checks his bank account, and finds that he has $40,000 which he believes is enough to
convince Joe to sell his business, but Joe laughs at the offer. His business is earning $80,000 per year, and he is not
going to sell his business for a paltry six month's salary, so Hank decides to up the ante considerably. Hank goes to
several of his friends and offers to sell them shares in his business, and persuades them that they will receive their
money back in one year, with interest, which he knows to be a bald faced lie, but his friends go for the deal, and they
lend Hank the money.
Hank goes to Joe and offers him $400,000 for his business, and Joe begins to seriously consider selling for that amount
of money. Hank sees that Joe is plainly interested, so he ups the ante to $500,000. A whopping half million
smackeroos! Joe takes the money and runs. The first thing that Hank does is to close down Joe's Pizza, lay off all of his
workers, and sell the building to a dry cleaning outfit. He still needs money to pay off his investors, so he enlarges his
own building to hold more people, and further degrades the quality of the ingredients in his pizza, by using artificial
cheese, textured vegetable protein which masquerades as pepperoni, and tomato sauce diluted with water. He
substitutes canola oil for olive oil, and margarine for butter on his garlic toast.
Hank's pizza is now a bland, insipid mass of goo, but his is the only game in town. In the neighborhood where two
quality pizzerias once flourished, there is now only one miserable imitation of what passes for pizza. The customers
have no place else to go for pizza other than Hank's, and they flock to his establishment every evening because they
are too lazy or too tired to cook supper, and they eat that crap that Hank dishes up, and convince themselves that it's a
real treat.
That's what happens under capitalism: The consumer suffers, and the mogul prospers, secure in the knowledge that he
has no significant competition.
But what about the Asian couple that bought Joe's building and opened up a dry cleaning business? They see the
booming business that Hank is doing across the street, and decide they ought to "diversify." They have enough
relatives to pool their resources and buy Hank out.
Furthermore, they know how to produce a pizza using rice flour, and red-colored soy sauce instead of tomato sauce.
They know how to make a pizza that tastes like shit, but looks very good in the box. Thus once again, the vicious cycle
of capitalism occurs, and the consumer is forced to accept inferior goods at higher prices.
That's the difference between Free Enterprise and Capitalism.
Not many years ago, if you wanted to buy an American car, you had many choices available besides Ford, GM, or
Chrysler. You could also buy a Studebaker, a Packard, a Kaiser, a Willys, a Nash, an International, or a Hudson. but
Studebaker gobbled up Packard, and shut down the Packard plant, laying off all of its workers.
Kaiser gobbled up Willys, shut down the Willys plant, and forced its workers to seek work elsewhere.
Nash-Kelvinator swallowed up Hudson Motor Car Company, and got rid of all the Hudson employees. The result of this
capitalist feeding frenzy was that the quality of those brands of automobiles declined abysmally, while their price tags
rose.
People stopped buying Studebakers, Ramblers, and Kaiser-Willys jeeps, and those companies went belly up. Chrysler,
whose autos were already known for shoddy workmanship, bought out Nash-Kelvinator (American Motors), and the
quality of the vehicles produced by Chrysler-AMC became so trashy that the brand name became a joke.
They all failed, and the consumer was left to pay higher prices for Fords, Chevrolets, and Dodges. The labor force in
the American Auto industry was reduced by nearly 50%, and hundreds of thousands of auto-workers had to take much
lower paying jobs in other fields, if they were lucky enough to find them in manufacturing. Many resorted to flipping
burgers to keep themselves alive. But even though the American auto industry shrunk drastically, and the value of their
stocks dropped to incredible levels, the only ones who suffered were the workers themselves, and the majority of their
stockholders.
The executives, directors, and CEOs of those companies made obscene amounts of money, a lot of which came from
taxpayers in the form of government bailouts. In addition to their salaries and expense accounts, many of the CEOs and
directors of the auto companies received bonuses in excess of 65 million dollars. We always thought that a bonus was
something that a person earned by superior performance, not by abject failure.
The Auto industry is only one of many examples of how the capitalist pigs contributed to the destruction of the American
way of life. The aircraft industry, the electronic industry, the firearms industry, and the retail industry are just a few more
examples of the destructiveness of capitalism.
Just 20 years ago, in Klamath Falls, Oregon, you were able to buy just about everything you could possibly need --- but
you couldn't buy it in one place. There were hundreds of small shops and stores that sold good quality merchandise,
and you had to spend the day shopping around to get what you wanted. Shopping was fun.
But then Wal-Mart moved in, and soon all of our choices were eliminated. The small shops all closed their doors, and
now the only choice the local consumers have is that of cheap, Chinese goods, available under one roof. Shopping is
not fun anymore. And while were on the subject of cheap, Chinese merchandise, we should mention that the reason the
automakers, the aircraft companies, the electronics companies, and the other once-prominent American industries
started out-sourcing to foreign countries, is that they could not recoup the money they spent gobbling up their
competitors during their insatiable lust for absolute supremacy in the marketplace.
In conclusion, we wish to point out to our readers that there is irrefutable proof that our government once believed in
free enterprise over capitalism, and that proof can be found in the Federal Laws prohibiting the existence of a monopoly.
America once had the best telephone company in the world, under American Telephone and Telegraph (ATT). Our
phones worked reliably, and the cost of service was very reasonable. There were pay phones in every public place,
and you could put in a long distance call successfully 24/7.
But the Federal Government decided that ATT had become a monopoly, and ordered it disbanded. The result was that
the telephone service in America deteriorated to the levels of the 1880s. It took 20 years to straighten out that mess,
and prices for telephone service soared dramatically. Whereas a local call from a pay phone used to cost a nickel, it
rose to 50 cents for three minutes. Now all pay phones are owned by private companies, and they charge whatever
they think the traffic will bear. Pay phones have virtually disappeared from view, and if you can find one, a long distance
call can cost upward of 25 dollars, whereas it used to cost about $1.50.
Thank God for the cell phone! It's cheap, and it works --- most of the time. But why is it that ever since the breakup of
ATT, none of the laws forbidding monopolies have been enforced? Why have Boeing, Lockheed, and Northrop not
been prosecuted for gobbling up a multitude of other aircraft companies --- Companies that contributed greatly to our
victory during World War II?
Why have the auto makers not been prosecuted for their various debacles in the past? Why haven't the electronics
industries and the retail industries been stopped from gobbling up their competition?
The answer is that the United States Government no longer enforces the laws against monopolies because they, like
the capitalist pigs they allow to flourish, absolutely hate the thought of the American People being given a choice in their
lifestyles. They want everyone to be forced to choose what they, the government, wants them to choose, and not be
given any such freedom in the matter of choices.
The Obama-Pelosi-Reid-Schumer Consortium is now in the process of creating another monopoly in the health
insurance industry, much to the detriment of the consumer, and to the industry itself. The U.S. Government desires for
the populace to be under totalitarianism, while they, the politicians can practice free enterprise. Our politicians, judges,
and bureaucrats all deserve to be executed for treason, along with the capitalist pigs that have destroyed the lives of
the American People!
