Capitalism is Fear.

Just something I'm thinking... Fear sells. Think about it! Turn on the TV, you see the commercials? What are they selling you, some product? No, they're selling the fear of living without their products. Fear of poverty, fear of ugliness, fear of being lonely, fear of boredom... I could go on for hours. Hell, after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, gun sales went up by 70% and ammo sales went up by 140%! Americans started buying gas masks, bulletproof vests, handguns, burglar alarms, etc. Thanks to our fear, a lot of corporations made a buttload of money. Just an observation.

And even more disturbing is how fear is used to sell tyranny, 9/11 happened so we apparently need to ggive up all our right or we are all going to die. It is okay for big brother to spy on people without warrants, to stick their hands in people's pants or throw them in radiation bakers at the airport. And it is normal for police to beat up peaceful protesters because because the "terrorists" hate us for our freedom not our shoot first and ask questions never foreign policy.
