>that time death toll was counted in millions, but now you can expect something greater in the several orders order of magnitude.


And if communism tries to establish itself, we may be able to expect Stalin-like levels of death and starvation, too.

>You also did not even bothered to provide any hints of solutions besides that it will somehow resolve on its own.


I don't pretend to know what will solve the world's problems or exactly how people will manage to adjust. For one thing, there's a remarkably bad success record when it comes to that kind of prediction. But what I do know is that people adapt to these things, or they die. Some people fled the potato famine and wound up in America, and sought their fortune here. Those people adapted. Others did not do so well.

But frankly, I don't think you have any room to lament the misfortune of Indians or the Irish in past centuries, considering how low you prioritize the potential survival and careers of artists versus your own desire for free art.

>Unfortunately, those problems are fatal to capitalism.

>but the fact that capitalism ended is obvious and undeniable.


You keep saying things like that but there's not much to back it up. It's not "obvious and undeniable" to ME, and I don't think your theories and assertions are correct. People have been predicting the end of capitalism for ages but it hasn't happened yet, and I don't find your arguments for the idea particularly convincing (obviously).

Capitalism has its problems, to be sure, but communism and all its variations have their own set of problems, and even if capitalism did go under (it won't) I really can't believe the alternatives are somehow going to do a better job of it THIS time.
