A recent headline reads "Venezuelan Leader: Capitalism needs to go down". It should no surprise to anyone that Chavez would say this. What is shocking is that there are many, many leftist Americans that believe the same day. To the Leftists/Statists/Marxists, it is Utopian to think of a classless world where everyone has everything they need everyone contributes everything they can in the name of worldwide communal living. Ahh - peace and harmony....
In theory, this would be a beautiful world. Just think of how much less stress one would have if you didn't have to worry about keeping up with the Jone's. The truth of the matter is, even in a Kumbayah loving world, there will ALWAYS be individuals that look around and see room for improvement. Inherently, humans have a "greedy" desire for advancement, improvement, and a strive for achievement. Again - this is inherent. The leftists in power have this same desire - with the exception of their belief that only THEY should have the power to name who will be the elite, the "haves and have nots", and who should have the opportunity for individual achievement. So basically what I'm saying is that Capitalism will NEVER die - it will only be stifled with laws and regulations that benefit only the elitists in power that only allow achievement in their own right while denying this right for all the common folk. The "masses" will be made to deny their urge of self-fulfillment in the name of the environment and "saving our fellow man".
So you see, the leftists have staged a ruse whereby only the one's making the rules will have the path to achievement while regular old Joe Schmoe's like myself have the will and desire snuffed in order to stifle the will or the inherent desire to make a better life for ourselves and our families. No, Capitalism will not die - it will only be denied to the masses and applied discriminately to the elite.
