There is so much wrong with our high streets, the gradual destruction of communities, community centres, small businesses, book stores, independent café's, libraries, anything that isn't a mindless blah of depression in an increasingly soulless pit. The epidemic of tax dodging and fraud revealed by the excesses of the Conservative alliance, the revelation that public services and welfare are being cut for the preservation of big business, for nuclear weaponry, for monarchy, for holidays-on-a-yacht is more than just a finger to point at the wallowing rich - it's a expose that shows a system rotten to its core. The belief that the social good is at the core of our government, that we live in a 'democratic' society, that Britain (amongst other 'developed' nations) intervenes for the welfare of its citizens and aims to preserve fundamental human rights is in shambles. In a system so fully reliant on the suppression of intellectual criticism, on the promotion of hugely damaging commercial, un-ecofriendly, un-humanfriendly corporate interests as 'cool' or desirable or 'cult' as sops to the poor, welfare is not sustainable. Capitalism is not a meritocracy. Capitalism is not compatible with freedom, equality, liberty, charity, environmentalism. It never was. The rich ain't rich unless the poor are poor. Capitalism is kaput.
