The problem with capitalism

Matt Stuart | 08.07.2002 20:08

Matt Stuart says that an economic system based on capitalism damages culture and civilisation itself.

Economic policy is often overlooked or merely skimmed over by nationalist theoreticians. This should not be the case; it is vital for us to have a grasp of economic theory, and an understanding of the problems of the current economic system, in order for us to begin to plan the economic structure which will exist in our future state. This article attempts to highlight the basic problems of capitalism and the reasons for its incompatibility with the society which the BNP is striving to build.

A major problem of capitalism is its steady draw of all resources and capital to the top of the socio-economic pyramid. In a system where capitalism is left unchecked this has a devastating effect on the reproductive habits and demographic make-up of the population. The greedy and wealthy amongst the upper classes try to gain an ever-increasing slice of the economic pie. Consequently they are at all times trying to seek new methods of reducing the wage and thus the standard of living of the middle and lower classes. This leads to a decline in reproduction amongst the middle and lower classes as they are led to feel inferior and, in comparison to those ‚above' them, incapable of providing financially for children. This is exacerbated by the ‚keep up with the Joneses' mentality promoted by the upper classes. To increase the profits of their big cooperations they brainwash the middle- and lower-classes into ‚needing' goods they simply cannot afford. This vicious circle leads to a situation where having children is deemed unaffordable and inconvenient; something fatal for the indigenous population.

However, it must be noted that this disastrous phenomenon also affects the reproduction of the upper-classes. Their quest for ever increasing wealth results in vast amounts of their time being spent ‚doing' business, greedily reinvesting their wealth and, with the little leisure time they have remaining, reallocating their wealth into expensive pleasurable pursuits. They have no time for children; offspring become a lesser priority to money.

Capitalism demands immigration

The capitalist system, as explained, causes a catastrophic decline in the indigenous population. This is compensated for by importing large numbers of immigrants who join this economic cycle and fall victims to it themselves, eventually leading to the influx of yet another wave of immigrants. The cycle repeats itself ad infinitum until a point is reached where the indiginous population has been entirely replaced, leaving only the less capable immigrants who cannot maintain the system created by the original population. The intelligent and technical sections of the population now cease to exist and the system grinds to a halt.

Once this stage is reached the immigrants begin to revert to their primitive ways and the population increases to fill the land. The monuments, infrastructure and civilisation of the original population, beyond the comprehension of the new inhabitants, are left to crumble. The greedy impulses fostered by unchecked capitalism will cause the most intelligent and civilised peoples to disappear from the face of the Earth.

This frightening phenomenon is not a theory unsupported by evidence; it is exemplified by the decline of an array of great civilisations such as that of Ancient Egypt. The original inhabitants of Ancient Egypt were being steadily replaced by immigrants as early as 3000 years ago. Today the only evidence that any kind of advanced civilisation ever existed in Egypt are the ancient monuments that are left behind, unsurprisingly used at present as profitable tourist attractions.

That which happened to Ancient Egypt has happenend to countless other great civilisations and nations, and is, without a doubt, what is happening to the Western world in which we live today. The capitalist system which governs our economic activity not only accomodates the greedy impulses that lead to the above described process, but also ENCOURAGES them. Capitalism is not conducive to the maintenance of civilisation. On the contrary, it is entirely destructive and regressive, and totally incompatible with the progressive state which we in the BNP are striving to build.

Progressive Fascism, haha

I have no intention to debate with facists, racists and anti-working class scum on their own ground, and I refuse to engage in any analysis of this man's argument because it is merely the attempt of a fascist to pose left wing in order to disguise the fact that he is
a reservist for capitalism, to be called up in a time of crisis where the bourgeoisie is threatened by the organised, revolutionary working class, and that the BNP have nothing against capitalism; they merely express a desire for capitalism in it's purest and least adultered form, free from the pretentions of "democracy" which it uses at the moment in order to hold the consciousness of workers in check. Contrary to what it would seem if you picked up a copy of a left paper and it seemed that fascism was right around the corner, the BNP aren't about to pick up the capitalists' batton and neither was Le Pen. Nevertheless, the working class must mobilise through trade unions and a multiethnic, revolutionary party to smash the fascists and make sure that the racist Labour government or the Chirac right have no force to resort to in order to keep capitalism alive. That statement sounded familiar? That would be as a result of the boost to fascists provided by Blair, Blunkett and Labour's war on immigrants and asylum seekers.

Hopefully the time is soon to come when the workers have the necessary consciousness instilled in them by a revolutionary organisation (and not the SWP with their re-run of Rock Against Racism) will crush the fascists on the streets alongside their capitalist masters in government and with state power.
