Capitalism reigns the world over, no place is safe from its authority, whether democratic or tyrannical each regime serves its Majesty the Capital. That peculiar relationship of dominion made by dominants and dominated is meant to create all the wealth that then goes up the ladder to feed the ruling classes and the Monster that sustains the entire construction. To reduce everything to the economic aspect, apart from being very naïve and showing a certain incapacity of reading the social dynamics, keeps us from seeing and acknowledging the status of slavery Mankind is driven to. It is not about greed, it is not about egotism, it is not about morality, it is not about ethics, it is not about legality, it is not about honesty. Money is due to become Capital, and when it does so, it introduces its control, making human beings like monsters, dividing them into hangmen and victims. We are everything but humans, cast into an inhuman system whose primary law is profit. We have no option, and we have no freedom, and we won’t have any while our societies are divided in classes, there is market, there is property to defend, there is money to accumulate, there is wealth to be produced as a result of dominance. Capitalism is a fiend thirsty for profit, it doesn’t allow any other law than profit, and it is untamable. Don’t blame people, because they are forced into making even the most brutal and heinous crimes in the name of Capital, try instead to find a way for liberation looking at the prospects among the close meshes of power.

Special recommendations.

Beware, whether you are convinced supporters of ethics and moralization in the vein of Common Good Lovers, Anti-consumerists, Progressives, Fair Trade enthusiasts, Religious enthusiasts, State control devotees, Indignados, and the like, or else tough guys who have strong beliefs like Patriots, Libertarians, Liberalists, Conservatives, and so forth, we strongly recommend not to read this book. Although you think to be of very different views, you are unhappily joined by the same Chimera: this system can be improved, and it can be done without ever changing the actual social relationships. Which makes you all be fervent aficionados of the status quo.
