After reading up on all this economic outcry, I have deemed myself worthy of saving humanity, with this simple solution!

Is deflation giving you the blues? Is Laissez-faire putting you down? Does getting less welfare money make you unhappy?
Why rage against the machine when you can merely dismantle it?
Protest the existence of capitalism by becoming a socialist!

*sigh*

Both socialism and communism are capitalism.

Marx promoted communism as the next step in the evolution of capitalism where the means of production are controlled not by a ruling class but by all members of society.

Further socialism does not sit at a midpoint between capitalism and communism. They all employ similar methods of production but place the means of production in different hands.

The Marx brothers also promoted the use of comedy in dire situations, but I guess you hadn't read up to that page yet.

EDIT: You can capitalize on communism by buying your own off-kilter political statement, simply by IMing me inworld, or donating land to a poor, hopeless vagrant.
