    ACKSHUALLY capitalism is a natural economic system that has existed in one form or another for the entirety of human history. Even animals practice primitive forms of capitalism. Capitalism predates humanity and will live on after we die. Capitalism in fact extends forwards and backwards in time from the beginning of the universe to the end of days. Capitalism was here at the beginning and will live on and once our sun blinks off and a cold darkness falls across our solar system. Time moves on, we live, we die, but capitalism remains, like a God watching over their children. Capitalism is all that has ever been and all that will ever be; capitalism is everything that is and is not. Capitalism devours all, because capitalism is all, an ancient God predating existence.

      It's true I saw a monkey sitting on a pile of more coconuts than it could ever eat throwing rocks at other monkeys as they brought the capitalist monkey more and more coconuts.
