Concrete Example of the Crime of Capitalism

Here's a great example of the corrupting influence of capitalism. A real tale from a few weeks ago. The landlord in the tale is a Mike Wallis (so you can avoid him) and he owns flats in Reading. He even owns a company offering Project Management and Surveying Services so either never use this company cos they are incompetent or never use this company because they cannot be trusted to do a good job.

So Mike is the incompetent landlord of top 4 flats who is either incapable or unwilling to fix his plumbing, but regardless rakes in the rent. He is earning risk free cash from the situation and has total choice what he does or does not do. Typical perks of being an owner of things. His inability to fix the problem over several years means that the flats beneath are regularly flooded. In contrast to the Capitalist Mike, the tenants are losing money from the situation by paying rent but can't do anything about the plumbing.

An estate agents (Martin & Co) is now in charge of the all the flats. When I called to complain about the state of one of the flooded tenant-suckers below the otherwise very amiable and caring estate agent did 2 extraordinary things. (1) defended the landlord (2) blamed the tenant for not handling the flooding better!

She was seemingly oblivious to the fact that the tenant was paying for a product which she was not being delivered. A problem already in any transaction. But also oblivious to the fact that the landlord above with +ve balance and freedom to chose what he does was in a totally different situation from the tenant who was powerless and paying for that privilege.

So the once humane Estate-Agent has become brainwashed excusing the crimes of the capitalists and rejecting the plight of those in the service of capital. Multiply this type of situation up across the Capitalist world and you have the biggest crime against Humanity conceivable; one eclipsing the Holocaust and one that our children will be astouded at after the Revolution unbrainwashes the pro-capitalists like this lost cult-following estate agent.

Can you also believe there are even people who think Capitalism and free-markets are the cure of all evils rather than the cause!
