| It was inmenesely obvious that you were not communist just as it is obvious that, defacto, you can't be an environmentalist. However, it's unlikely that you're capitalist. Just like most of the "liberals" and authoritarian right wingers you're "capitalist sympathizers". This is matter of semantics of course. "Capitalist" is not a supporter of capitalism but rather an actual burgeoise, that is, someone with control over means of production and who has workers working for him in the production of a comodity to sell to other bougeoise and workers. Now, as a supporter of capitalism, you must understand that capitalism is a profit-oriented system. You must understand that, as a profit oriented system, capitalism requires consumption to be not only constant but also constatly increasing. Such a system can only derive in an ever-incresing rate of natural-resources' depletion to suffice profit needs and not social needs. Now, as a "liberal" you favour a "freer" form of capitalism, that is, unplanned capitalism. If you combine the previous profit orientation with lack of planification you get a messy and asymetrical growth in the rate of depletion. Since capitalism in this framework is also a competitive system the growth in resources' depletion is not only asymetrical but also aymetrically increasing. An increase in the rate of depletion by enterprise X will result in its competitors Y and Z to increase their rates of depletion. X, in order to keep up with the competition will have surpass Y's and Z's rate of depletion. What for? The more produce you have the lower your prices and the stronger competitor you become. It becomes a never ending race to become the dominant enterprise with the greatest production and greatest array of costumers. In order to keep your enterprise working, you need costumers to never stop existing, that is you encourage by all means possible your product's consumption, otherwise, if people stop buying from you your enterprise goes bankrrupt and that's something no capitalist would like. In other words, natural resouces become nothing but fuel for your enterprise. You may argue "But in the long run they can finish and the enterprises must know it". A 60 year old capitalist won't give a fuck if his enterprise is no longer sustainable in more than 40-50 years because it won't affect him. He will still profit from his business well into his advanced age and quite probably until his death. For him it's still an income source. All he worries about is his profit and besides he doesn't know for certain if what scientists say is true or not, all that he knows for certain is that he'll be rich, powerful and free so long as he has profit and that happens because people buy his product. And, overall, moderate consumption is infefficient in a capitalist economy: it doesn't let enterprises grow. As wokers have a longstanding history of working in a certain enterprise, they expect raise in wages, prices of several goods may increase and they may not only want that but actually need that. If the enterprise doesn't grow it can't provide such thing to its workers. And of course it will report less and less income to the capitalist becoming an unattractive venture. Money is the key to "freedom" in a capitalist society. We all want to increase our freedom. The only way to get money is profit. So we also want to increase our profit. Profit=money="freedom". Burgeoise get profit by exploiting the workers which requires them to give them the least possible. Workers "profit" by getting the wages from the bourgeoisie and they always want to increase them. A clash of interests that generates the needs for the profit of enterprises to always grow in this sense. There you go, the fallacy of capitalist sustainability smashed. So, or you're enviromentalist or you're caiptalism supporter, or a capitalism's supporter that in all hypocrecy calls himself environmentalist. |

| what you say is partly true i am a cpatitalistic sympethizer, but i care for the environment more. you asked to me choose a clear cut political system since green isnt one. i am a true environemntalist, i have studied the environment and biology, and do respect it, but the system i was raised with my whole life and identify with is capitalism. i see other systems, but nothing is as good, to me, as captialims as a politician, i am a capitalist SUPPORTER, but as a person i am a green i am more nuetral, but with a leaning toward capitalism _________________ why do i need a sig

| Which makes you a simple hypocrite. If nature is more important for you and you understand capitalism is a hindrance to it (you already consented to the arguements I employed) then why still favoring it? Besides, you don't know anything about communism, that's for sure so you wouldn't be able to judge between capitalism and communism. |

You don't get it do you?
Capitalism goes against nature. Or you support capitalism or you're an enviromentalist, or merely a hypocritic supporter of capitalism. |

Read my post. If you read it, you got the answer to your questions. If you disagree post counter arguements. And I should mention that you actually did consent to my arguements in your first reply.
| enviro wrote: | well then i guess im a pioneer in that field. |
Nope, that makes you another delusional entrepeneur wanabee that disregards scientific facts about capitalism and nature.
| enviro wrote: | what keeps prices low, capitalism (except for oil, i agree) |
What is this statement (or whatever it is intended to be) supposed to mean?
| enviro wrote: | low prices= less starving people. which means people can focus on other things |
... you didn't read my post obviously.
| enviro wrote: | and why is your communsim so good for my envionment eh? |
Simple. It's a scientific planned economy that depends on sustainability. It is not profit-oriented but need-satisfaction oriented. Once an industry has sufficed societal needs, it stops working having no negative implications for the workforce is redirected to to other sectors of economy to lower work pressure.
Since it's planned and scientific it takes into consideration that nature is the sustaint for society inherently battling overdepletion for overdepletion means society would be unable to sustain itself any longer, a characteristic that matters given the social aspect of communism.
Since communism doesn't count with consumerism there is no need to exploit nature just for the sake of profit.
There are many things that will be produced just once each 20-50 years, for example, housing a need of which satisfaction requires enormous depletion of forests. Every worker will be able to get things like e-books, laptops, palmtops and PCs decreasing inmensely the need for paper based means of transmitting information. There will be no need to keep lumber processing facilities, furniture producers, construction and such constantly working.
Since every aspect of industry is planned in a coordinated fashion to meet society's needs, plants producing polluting waste will be planned so as to be able to manage said polluting waste efficiently.
There is no "costs' assesment" in socialism because it is a functionalst economy, that is, the important is to meet a goal, suffice a need, not to avoid expenses and generate profit. |

This statement is absolutely moot. Communism has existed and worked although not in a big scale due to military intervention and it's just matter of difunding information, as simple as that.
| enviro wrote: | but thats it.

Yeah I said why it helps. Instead of empty statements, give counter arguements.
| enviro wrote: | although i am listing to how capitalism doesnt help, i dont see any other alternative. |
That's because you don't have any interest either in environment or politics whatsoever, just pretend to.

That you take seriously what you supposedly stand for and analyse what better helps nature.
If your only concern is environment, supposing you're sincere on this, you could try anarcho-primitivism. |

Aha. Whatever helps you sleep at night. The thing is that capitalism doesn't go with environmentalism.
| enviro wrote: | and if you are saying i am not a real gren, then you are not a real communist(socialist). |
I'm not saying you're not a real "green" but that you can't be a real green and support capitalism and, unlike you, I'm using arguements.

You may be knowledgeable on the branches of the problems, but apparently from what can be infered from your posts, you're not quite familiarized with the roots. Besides, it's clear that I didn't say you're not a true "green", I simply said that or you support capitalism or you're an environmentalist for the former opposes the latter defacto. |

Simple: You can't support capitalism if you're environmentalist except as a hypocrite. That's all.

Defacto is what soemthing comes to be in reality inspite of claims. |

I'm understanding "liberal" as a form of capitalist for I situate it within this forum's context. Therefore, if you're an environmentalist it wouldn't make sense to be a "liberal". |

Authoritarianism makes more sense in that case. After all, you could stand for an environmentalist dictatorship. |
