" From now on, the people who control money will run the world with only one objective--to make money. If it becomes necessary to overthrow governments in order to do so, then governments will be overthrown. This is the new ideology, so powerful that it is the only one permitted. No opposition will be tolerated. The free market now translates into unrestrained dominance of the rich over the poor, the strong over the weak." ( Former Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, quoted by Reuters, attacking "new capitalists.")

Why do you have to answer with such anger? Did I say anything rude?
I thought that I just merely asked if you agree or not? I have no idea how this simple question would provoke you so, as to say profanities! Perhaps it's becuase your "convictions" are not as strong as you think they are? Hmm..
I think truth is truth, no matter who the messenger!...don't you "Lordkelvin"?

Unfortunately your right , the dividing line is becoming way to big and the rich don't care that the little people are the ones making them all there money so i say, let's whip them out now and start over, before it truly dose become a inserpassable problem.

personally It sounds like jealousy on his part.
The fact is money dose make the world go around. With it comes every thing else that we enjoy in society. With out a free market economy the computer your reading this on will not exist.
look at Singapore that is right off Malaysia. They cannot hold a candle to there neighbor. I'm sorry but life is not fair. You eather become one of the capitalists or you get run over by them.
The Soviet Union tried something else and we see how that worked out...

What the hell does he know about capitalism? Check out how well his country is doing in *any* category. From human rights to the standard of living that country sucks.... And you want me to listen to that bozo? Surely you can dig up a better brasher of capitalism than that loser.

Hes just pissed off because no one cares what his country says or does. Much like Canadians when they speak.
