Capitalism is not something separate from our daily lives like a line of figures in the financial columns of a newspaper, or a media bulletin on the state of the economy.  It's more intimate than that - something we experience daily in our social and work lives, in our family life, in our physical bodies and in the most intimate sense we have of ourselves.  At best, it's an uncomfortable experience.    

Sometimes it's far, far worse than that.  For all capitalism's great potential to create an abundance, it has no power to deliver.  It is just not designed that way.  And though for those of us who work for a living it often dangles personal fulfilment and real freedom before us, it sets them always just beyond our grasp.

All welcome
