“The idea is the least labor and capital and resources you put together and the more you accumulate the better capitalist you are. So the suggestion I will make to you is that the idea of constant accumulation, which is what America is about, what consumerism, NAFTA are about, means that you always take more than you need and you don't leave the rest. So I suggest that it is possible from an indigenous world view that capitalism is inherently out of order with natural law.” WorldNeedsMeanIdeasTogetherAmericaLawOrderNaturalViewsCapitalismResourcesLaborConstantCapitalistConsumerismSuggestionsIndigenousAccumulationNatural LawOverconsumptionWorld ViewNaftaLabor And Capital Author:Winona LaDuke
“Our problem is that the climate crisis hatched in our laps at a moment in history when political and social conditions were uniquely hostile to a problem of this nature and magnitude-that moment being the tail end of the go-go '80s, the blastoff point for the crusade to spread deregulated capitalism around the world. Climate change is a collective problem demanding collective action the likes of which humanity has never actually accomplished. Yet it entered mainstream consciousness in the midst of an ideological war being waged on the very idea of the collective sphere.” WorldIdeasWarEndsMomentsProblemActionSciencePoliticalHumanitySocialNatureNaturalConsciousnessConditionsCapitalismCrisisClimateClimate ChangeSpreadLikesAround The WorldAccomplishedCollectivesMidstThat MomentSpheresMainstreamTailsHostile80sLapIdeologicalMagnitudeCrusadesSocial ConditionsCollective Action Author:Naomi Klein
“Ignorance, as well as disapproval for the natural restraints placed on market excesses that capitalism and sound markets impose, cause our present leaders to reject capitalism and blame it for all the problems we face.

“Adam Smith's was a real universalism in intent. Laissez Faire was intended to establish a world community as well as a natural harmony of interests within each nation... But the "children of darkness" were able to make good use of his creed. A dogma which was intended to guarantee the economic freedom of the individual became the "ideology" of vast corporate structures of a later period of capitalism, used by them, and still used, to prevent a proper political control of their power.” WorldWellsChildrenStillsRealUseAblePoliticalUsedPoliticsIndividualNationsInterestCommunityNaturalDarknessEconomyEconomicPeriodsCapitalismHarmonyStructureIdeologyCorporateLiberalismGuaranteesAdamCreedsDogmaLaissez FaireEconomic FreedomUniversalismLaissez Faire Capitalism Author:Reinhold Niebuhr
“In Southeast Asia the world is understood to be a vast, complex network of interdependent relationships. So when global capitalism makes it impossible for small-time rice farmers to feed their families and make a living, it is a natural thing for anyone in the family who can find an alternative source of income to do so.” WorldNaturalImpossibleSourceUnderstoodCapitalismComplexesIncomeAlternativesFarmersAsiaRiceNatural ThingsSoutheast AsiaSouth Asia Author:John Burdett
“Because the free market system is so weak politically, the forms of capitalism that are experienced in many countries are very far from the ideal. They are a corrupted version, in which powerful interests prevent competition from playing its natural, healthy role.” CountryFormInterestNaturalPowerfulRolesHealthyCapitalismIdealsWeakCompetitionVersionsFree Market Book:Saving Capitalism From The Capitalism Source: Saving Capitalism From The Capitalism

“It is largely dissynchronous timing standards that have kept human beings off-balance and alienated from the natural cycles of the Earth they inhabit. The worst culprit is the Gregorian calendar, and by extension the "12:60 frequency" that it fosters - together these have become, in essence, the inescapable time clock of globalist capitalism.” HumansEarthTogetherPeaceNaturalHuman BeingsWorstBalanceStandardsCapitalismEssenceClockCyclesTimingExtensionsFrequencyCalendarsCulpritTime Clock Author:Jose Arguelles
