THE DANGERS OF CAPITALISM.

After spending several minutes looking for a link to delete my facebook account,  it magically appeared.  I think when I finally got through to whatever person is in charge of this at FB ,  I got the link. So now in 14 days my account will be deleted.

But what will they do with my information in that 14 days. Are they sitting around their desks at the FB offices thinking... How can we make a bit more money on this person who has deleted her account?  Who can I sell her data to? WE better do it quickly because in 14 days it will be gone.

This is what I envision happening at Facebook.  Do I have a problem with trust?? You bet I do.  I recently read "Shock Doctrine"  and :'No"  by Naomi Klein, and if you want to see how we are losing our democracy and our comfortable middle class lives,  read either of these books.

tt is pure unadulterated capitalism, at the cost of everyone,  and even the planet that will bring about the end of our world. And even for the very rich, who have the money to relocate to an AREA  of the country that is safe from rising sea levels. Eventually their lives will end to

But the point is,  if we all work together,  if the wealthy invest their massive resources in working toward a solution, then we will all be better off.  But in the end I suspect money,  greed and private enterprise will win out. And we have been brainwashed into thinking that privatization is better. Well it is not better. There is no accountability in the private sector,  other than to keep growing the bottom line. So whatever has to be done to do that... cut corners,  refuse health care,  put toxic substances into the air, water and food supply, to increase production,,, then that is ok in their world. But it is not ok in yours and mine.  WE have to get away from this idea that the private sector can do everything better.
