Capitalism is the Economic systvvem that has outperformed every other economic system that has ever existed on this planet by a wide margin. All other financial systems, past and present, are, to some extent, either wholly or partially top-down. The most successful economic system in the entire history of Earth, on the other hand, is an entirely bottom-up, laissez-faire, and unregulated system, run by a hidden hand, i.e., it is entirely self-regulated. There is no boss, and there is no controlling authority. It is so complicated that no one can calculate and accurately predict by any means possible at any time or place. Interventions only interfere with the perfect natural functioning of this system.
In this system, buyers and consumers are the real bosses. They are the real voters with a real stake in the game. Unlike democracy, they do not vote based on imperfect and incomplete information. Their vote is not just a mark on a computer or paper or raising hands. They vote by spending their hard-earned money. Their vote represents real wants, needs, and preferences. The tyranny of the majority is not the foundation of this system. Every transaction has a real impact on supply, demand, production, consumption, economy, and finances. When a person makes a purchase, they are not voting for the lesser of two evils. They vote for one choice out of the unlimited available at the moment. With a purchase, they basically say that at this moment, this is the best use of their hard-earned money.
Praxeology truly explains all human actions. Ludwig von Mises, in his book “Human Action,” has laid the foundations for a remarkably logical understanding of human action. Mises has skillfully and logically proven that all human actions are purposeful. When you act, you tell the world that out of the unlimited choices that you had at the moment, this is the best use of your precious time, money, and resources. How useless, imperfect, wasteful, destructive, meaningless, and unetical your action may be to anyone and everyone, you performed it with a purpose in your mind. My agreement or disagreement, or anyone’s agreement or disagreement with your actions, is entirely irrelevant. You perform all actions purposefully, even if the purpose is to waste.
You are born free. Freedom is your birthright. You must be free to perform whatever action you want to accomplish, whenever you want to perform, and wherever you want to perform, as long as you are not causing direct harm to someone else. You are an independent consciousness. You own your body, mind, brain, will, and wants. No religion, no political system, no tradition, no culture, no ideology, and no coercive authority has the right to take away your freedom from you. You are the utimate sovereign in your domain and in your life. You have the right to pursue happiness. You have a right to seek satisfaction and gratification. You have the right to be your own boss. You have the right to live your life.
But, of course, some power-hungry people want to run your life. They want to control you? They want to tell you what to do and what not to do? They want to be your bosses. They want you to pursue their targets, their goals, their dreams, their desires, their wants, and their preferences. They want to enslave. Restricted by current norms, they cannot literally enslave you. So, they give different deceptive levels to slavery, like citizenship. They want to imprison you in a social contract that you have never seen, never read, and never signed. They want to give you the illusion of a government of you, by you, for you. The government in which you practically have no say at all.
They want to restrict you with the laws, regulations, taxation, trade agreements, treaties, and pacts in which you do not have even the least possible say. They want to tell you what to eat and what not to eat, what to drink and what not to drink, what to smoke and what not to smoke, who to sleep with and with whom you cannot sleep. They want you to have a license to own a gun and a passport to travel. They want to imprison you for possessing an ounce of naturally grown substance. They want to send you to the wars that are purely fought for their interests and the interests of their cronies, away from your families, to get killed, disabled, mentally sick, financially ruined, or seriously wounded.
They want to tax you to the death for the sake of warfare and welfare, especially corporate welfare. They want to control your life very much like masters. They use corporate media, taxpayers-funded academia, bureaucrats, technocrats, experts, and gurus for propaganda and to manipulate your opinions. They use fear-mongering to the extent that you start shtting in your pants, stay away from your parents and grandparents for years, cover your face, avoid all social activities, get untested jabs made with entirely new and barely tested technology, and close businesses to render you unemployed. They trap you in problem, reaction, solution all the time. They award trillions in rescue of multibillion-dollar corporations, banks, and insurance companies that caused the problem to begin with.
“War is peace, freedom is slavery, and ignorance is strength”, as mentioned in “1984”, a revolutionary novel by George Orwell. Everything is upside down. Their gurus and experts even claim that morality is subjective, which means that people responsible for Native American genocide, Nazi genocide, Bolshevik Revolution, Red Revolution, Pol Pot Massacres, and Castro disasters did nothing wrong. They were fully justified based on their own subjective morality. Hell with any objective morality, and they have no shame. Surprisingly, many believe in this morally bankrupt rhetoric. Their religion is the state; the government is their God, the constitution is their holy book, the president is their prophet, the Cabinet, the legislature, and judges are their disciples; public schools are their church schools.
This religion of Atheism is turning out to be even worse than Theistic religions.
