Capitalist March for profit!


 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4642053.stm

"A small group of about 50 protesters walked ahead of the main procession, many in business suits and ties, apparently mocking multinational companies.

There was applause as they passed a Starbucks and they bowed down towards McDonald's as one of their number chanted: "Two, four, six, eight, we really must accumulate." "


Fantastic...

Capitalism on trial

There are alternatives to capitalism, look at the zapitstas in chipas, mexico. Capitalism has brought us war, famine poverty and exlpoitation. Socialism has brought us fair and humane working conditions, universal benefits, better wages and solidaritry between peoples

We like NATO as opposed to NATO, and their "capitalists " are true artists replicating the standard version of "reality" that we are given daily. So welcome NATO artists, to one of the new workshops at the new MATILDA building ... 111 Matilda Street, Sheffield. NATO, Infernal Noise Brigade, Carnival for Full Enjoyment and many other travelling groups will be visiting us throughout the year.
