STILL WAITING: A MUST READ

You told me how unfair America and Capitalism was, you said it was "Exploitive".


Every living thing on planet earth survives and exists within an "exploitive" system of competition and consumption. For you to exist something must be consumed I.E. taken or sacrificed. No individual or system for that matter is exempt from this cold and hard rule of existence. No man, woman or child, no animal, bacteria or construct of man or woman.


And the consumption of your life sustaining sustenance is directly in some way shape or form related to a measure of work performed in procuring it. This again is a cold and hard rule of the universe, and there are no exemptions!


No work? No eat! Very fundamentally similar to Capitalism. There are costs that must be calculated for, covered and paid for associated to EVERYTHING, life and business alike.


And the further you choose to diverge from this simple, cold, hard model of existence and survival in the universe in any endeavor then you must artificially take, confiscate or parasitize from someone or somewhere else in order to make your model sustainable. And that is why ALL other "ISMS" cannot be and are not as powerful and successful as the Combination of an Objectively structured Constitution focused on the 3 essential core human desire requirements of Freedom, Liberty, Prosperity in Capitalism.


You strongly disagreed when I pointed out that Capitalism was so successful because it is the one system that most closely parallels the above laid out cold and hard rules of existence of the universe. And I still stand by that analogy because it is Objectively indisputable.


I asked: "What "ISM" to you is superior to Capitalism properly structured and regulated by the Objectively constructed American Constitution / Constitutionalism? Keeping in mind that NO system on planet earth, structured and administered by man or woman is or can ever be perfect.


What "ISM" is superior, given these three core human requirements:

1. You and your family live in relative peace, safety and free from fear of your government and its abuse of power.

2. You and your family live in relative personal freedom and Liberty in what you say, think and do.

3. You and your family have the opportunity to be as prosperous in your wealth and personal property as you are able.


Below I have listed essentially all of the forms of governance "ISMS" that have historically existed and have been employed over the last 5,000 or so years. Assuming that you agree with my 3 personal requirements for a governmental organization structure and the cold hard rules of existence, tell me in real terms, which one is superior to the Objectively constructed Constitutional system that embraces Capitalism?


Absolutism: Government by a single absolute ruler (Monarchy).

Socialism: Government by a centralized state control of wealth and property.

Communism: Government of a classless society where the individual cannot own property.

Anarchism: A doctrine where all government should be abolished. (Then what?)

Tribalism: Shared tribal or familial affiliation and association above all others.

Capitalism: A doctrine of private ownership and free markets should govern economies.

Constitutionalism: "the concept of the limitation of government based around the will of the people, is based upon the idea of a social contract. The government agrees to protect the interests, the lives, and the property of its citizens, and the people agree to support and sustain their government (Study.com)


 I asked the question, but you never were able to offer a well thought out viable other "ISM". I am still waiting.


There is ONLY one "ISM" that in fact allows you by RIGHT to speak and even argue and organize against and threaten it! Existentially intolerable by ALL other "ISMS". And you today live within it! Why would you want to change it? You can Rightfully live as you and others who think similarly, please. Think about that for a second.


That "ISM", that system of governance that all human beings desire and covet is in fact American Constitutionalism and its embrace of Capitalism. What you in fact propose by dismissing it is force and Subjective Authoritarianism. And I know after Objectively thinking about the issue that is NOT what you really intend.


"The Cure for All "ISMS" was originally written in an effort to counter the perverted political argument that you fight racism and hatred with more hatred and racism. I will assume you also agree with my intent here because to fight racism and hatred with more racism and hatred is irrational, racist and hateful. And that is certainly not you.



People living in Harmony, Freedom, Liberty and Prosperity starts with understanding that nothing worthwhile happens without first fostering Mutual Respect. And likewise, no good sustainable business is done in Capitalism where one party pays but does not get what they paid for.


ALL of the other "ISMS" require force, inequity, deceit and getting what you were told you were going to pay for, or else. And that is a bad deal.


Are you paying attention yet America? JGL 5/18/25
