On anti-biotic infusion every 8 hours for 6 weeks. Taking effect in wobbly style; left wrist still prevents fast typing. Have peeked at a few posts in two threads -- cap tool & schools .

Does cap tool mean:

Helps capitalists? How? Would it be different had he never been born?

Helps capitalism? How? What threatens or aids a huge abstract system of relations?

A threat to capitalists NOT in itself a threat to capitalism. It may be even an aid. Huge complex historical problem, not answerered easily.

What do we want:

a. Destroy capitalism

b. Make life better under capitalism by producing good arguments & stats. That will show them.

Why does not a stupid rich man have a right tobe happy? How would it improve the world and help others were he made unhappy and degreeless?

The word "stupid" is always both stupid and offensive when applied to humans -- any humans. It is also always incorrect.

Only once or twice a century does the tiniest opening appear in the armor of capitalism. When such a tiny crack itappears, Let each stand in their place.
