I've been kind of exhausted lately so I'm sorry if my reply comes off as shallow, but I appreciate your enthusiasm I'd just recommend to try to get through as much of Das Kapital as you can, at least the 1st Tome.

The rule of law serves one function (To Protect Capital), but it has two modes. Good cop and Bad cop.

• Good cop: will sweet talk you, tell you you will be fine as long as you follow the law.

• Bad cop will threaten you, tell you you're getting a life sentence your life is over, there's nothing you can do.

• Good cop comes back in, tell you if you fess up, you'll get a sweeter deal.

And so on.

What is the primary goal of Capitalism and what are the Cops protecting? The accumulation of wealth.

What's the main obvious issue with that? Well, you need to extract that wealth from somewhere and for you to be rich, others have to be poor.

The poorer the people, the more they will resist. You can keep them entertained with bread and circuses, you can use credit and austerity, the latest most advanced stage of capitalism has been Imperialism. Problem with that, besides the human exploitation, is that it will hit a wall, it won't have anywhere else to expand and then it's going inwards.

Once it goes inwards they will either have to turn to Socialism or use more wealth to protect their wealth and as they do that the people's lives will become shittier and shittier until it raptures catastrophically and start a war.

This is extremely oversimplified btw.
