I wonder if I'm making a mistake here by not reading this article. I know one must always be open to other ideas but fucking hell there are not enough hours in the day. So when this guy's first claim is that capitalism is dead, I can't take the rest of it seriously nor read it properly. I can't let myself afford the time to touch this link. Maybe my view was colored by thus comment here but meh, can't be bothered.
