Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.  
 
Bertrand Russell

What is morality in any given time or place? It is what the majority then and there happen to like and immorality is what they dislike.  
 
Alfred North Whitehead

Karl marx in great quotes? really don't think so.

Freedom, morality, and the human dignity of the individual consists precisely in this; that he does good not because he is forced to do so, but because he freely conceives it, wants it, and loves it.  
 
Mikhail Bakunin

Think again, HIGHtechDEADfromtheNECKup. Marx was beyond correct with his prophecies of the sins of capitalism on the "working army". We are the millions, the unemployed, the foreclosed, the denied masses of basic medical care. Contemporary "bourgeoisie" are a cabal of faceless figures who operate unregulated and unchecked.  They launched the senseless wars in Korea, Vietnam, and Iraq; they killed JFK, RFK, MLK, they control the Federal Reserve and the CIA. They are responsible for 9/11 and the continued existence of Al Qaeda. They squashed and ignored alternate auto energies which would reduce demand for their oil; they caused Global Warming, and are responsible for major oil disasters. The Founding Fathers built the framework for a Democratic Republic and feared and warned of the disease of capitalism. Neither them or Marx could dream that capitalism would be the cause of the destruction of man's very physical existence on Earth.  
 
Capital is money; capital is commodities. By virtue of it being value, it has acquired the occult ability to add value to itself. It brings forth living offspring, or, at the least, lays golden eggs.  
-Karl Marx  

Butt I always knew you were a Marxist so no surprise there. Capitalism is what has built our country to the super power it WAS. It is what allowed me to go out and create a market for my abilities and start my own business. It is what fed the desire for millions of immigrants to want to come here to this country.
 Without capitalism we are nothing but a union of doers doing for a bunch of no doers. You have officially crossed over the wack job line in my book with your last post.

What is useless about trying to squash Communism. Ask the people live in North Korea if they would rather live in South Korea same thing for Vietnam.  
  Quote:

 The foreclosed? Most were foreclosed because fannie and freedie and others like them gave loans to people who could not afford them. underemployment is high due to your president and congress. No one wants to hire or expand due to the taxes and regulations that are looming.
 My question is how many times has a poor person hired you or anyone you know ? And as far as basic medical when was the last time you visited a emergency room? When I was a firefighter/medic I went on countless medical calls and transported numerous people to the ER for free treatment and transport.

"Advocates of capitalism are very apt to appeal to the sacred principles of liberty, which are embodied in one maxim: The fortunate must not be restrained in the exercise of tyranny over the unfortunate."  
 
Bertrand Russell
 
 
"Predatory capitalism created a complex industrial system and an advanced technology; it permitted a considerable extension of democratic practice and fostered certain liberal values, but within limits that are now being pressed and must be overcome. It is not a fit system for the mid-twentieth century."  
 
Noam Chomsky
