Capitalism to the capital "C", you mean?  *sighs*...  I don't think any of us are for Communism to the capital 'C', either, but Capitalism is currently screwing over 50% of Americans in the ass as global capitalization takes it course after America had its initial early success thanks to slavery, prime estate, technological prowess during the world wars, and giving leeway to the corporations with extravagant tax incentives until the corporations still did not think it was worth it to keep the Americans employed.

Ironic that you mention slavery and communism, because at least one defender of slavery said slavery was communism: https://archive.org/details/sociologyforsout00fitz  

Bachelors degrees will soon be regarded as something like a high school diploma.  Masters will be regarded as bachelors.  Even Ph.D.'s will have a hard time getting a job as a secretary, when there are just too many desperate Ph.D.'s.  Imagine putting a million Ph.D.'s in Africa?  Would all of them immediately qualify for a job?

Ph.Ds have a hard time getting jobs that they are qualified for now, due to either too many graduates or not enough jobs, depending on which way you look at it.

LOL, slavery and communism?  Well...   like the Egyptian Pharaohs and Jew slaves...

It's not just a linear scale of opposite extremes.  The line between unfettered capitalism (i.e., one company takes over all and becomes an absolute monopoly) and totalitarian communism is almost non-existent.  Instead of a linear scale, let's look at it as a circle.  We need to be more balanced on Earth, rather than going to the extreme North (where Northeast is extreme communist and Northwest is extreme capitalist), where Satan Claus rules us all, whipping us from his proverbial sled.

Quality of life might be improving in China, but it's at the cost of pollution, tainted groundwater, massive agricultural land depleted of nutrients and damaged with salts, lack of personal freedom and eradication of family-hood and tradition.  All thanks to the "North" where extreme capitalism and extreme communism are in bed with each other - global capitalization finding its haven right there. 

We seriously need to "un-fuck" We-the-People.
