This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

If true communism has never existed, then wouldnt it stand to reason that capitalism hasn't either? You cannot buy drugs etc legally. I'm talking about snow crash/BioShock capitalism.
I was trying to say that neither extreme has been tried, although we are damn close
Oh. Well I'm not, haha. Capitalism for me is when the means of production is in private hands and the owner employs people to do the labour for a fraction of the value of the end product in order to make a profit. That quite accurately describes the current status quo, I think!
Well okay, point taken.
