Zombie Capitalism
More conspiracies against the human race:
”Capitalism transforms society in its entirety as it sucks people by the billions into labouring for it. It changes the whole pattern by which humanity lives, remoulding human nature itself. It gives a new character to old opressions and throws up completely new ones. It creates drives to war and ecological destruction. It seems to act like a force of nature ... Yet the system is not a product of nature, but of human activity, human activity that has somehow escaped from human control and taken a life of its own. Economists write that ’the market does this’ or ’the market demands that’. But the market is only the coming together of the products of many disparate acts of human creative activity, labour.”
-- Chris Harman, Zombie Capitalism, 2009.
