Are You A Capitalist?

[reverse]

The queen isn't concerned with us becoming a monarchy. Several years ago we had a referendum to become a republic' date=' instead of being a constitutional monarchy, but it failed because a large percentage of Australians are either old, stupid, or both. The queen had no objections to the referendum, and in fact when the referendum failed the British papers were basically calling us weak for not having the guts to change. This was another occassion when I was extremely pissed off with my fellow citizens.

 

As for Australia becoming a state of the USA, I would be willing to die a painful death to stop that happening! Nothing more needs to be said.[/quote']

 

But if you ditch the monarchy you can never get to be a Sir.

 

or a Knight.

 

Girls dig knights.

 

Wouldn’t it suck big time if you did some really great thing and got some crappy made up title?

 

“Introducing, republic comrade Terry H Dright”.

 

I just can’t see it going down that well.

 

 

 

Ps,

Are the UK papers pro royalist,

they should be,

it gets them great covers.

and it’s really good for tourism.

And mostly don’t the royals stay out of public affairs?

(That Harry is going to be interesting to watch grow up).

This just isn't true.

Sir Bill Gates has just recieved an OBE from the queen.

 

I'll have the Dr title in 18 months anyway!

[reverse]

Congratulations good Doctor.

 

Sir Bill Gates,

Now what did he do again to get noticed?

Oh yes changed the world.

I see your point though…

funny I just cant see HRH on a PC playing Doom.

 

 

 

Opening scene

Buck palace

The Royal technology room next to the wireless.

HRH sits with blue glow from PC screen flickering over the room.

 

 

 

Queen,Calls to Buttler:

Jeeves.... who made up this wonderful electric portal for spam and pornography?

 

Jeeves:

Bill Gates is behind it’s popularity mom.

 

Queen:

Never heard of him.

Goodshow.

Send him some mints with my kind regards then would you.

 

Jeeves;

He’s bloody loaded mom.

 

Queen:

Oh,

well make it two boxes and put a knighthood in there with it ….

1) I think there was a hierarchy among the primitives' date='

 

2) and I think that what passed for wealth (trinkets and status) went with it.

 

3) one's places being established according to their strength and their bravery.

[/quote']

 

 

1) Many other forms of life have hierarchy so that seems good.

2)trinkets, well it did buy Manhattan island, so that seems good.

3) that also tees up with other forms of life.

 

My own thoughts are centring on the way the magic man is the interface between people and nature and how the chief is the interface between the individuals in the group.

 

which ties up nicely as to why there is a head on the back of each coin.

[reverse]

This is really starting to come together now.

 

If wealth is nothing more than the governing forces way of allotting you status(relative to other individuals in the group) and that in turn dictates (as in apes) your right to food and other resources…then I think we have an all round clear concept.

 

Now this means that capitalism….

[YT2095]

so is it accepted then that a Capitalist deals only in Money (paper or coins) then?

[Sayonara]

This just isn't true.

Sir Bill Gates has just recieved an OBE from the queen.

Actually it was a KBE' date=' and he can't use the title 'Sir' as he is not British.

 

However he [i']can[/i] call himself "Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire", should he wish to.

[Sayonara]

Now what did he do again to get noticed?

Oh yes changed the world.

He didn't "change the world" in the sense that it needed him to make the changes. Jobs and Wozniak seemed to do all right without him.

 

The KBE is in recognition of the work and money that he has ploughed into combating disease and poverty, via the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

[reverse]

Oh this is getting good.

 

Capital in Latin is (caput-itis ) or Head

 

Chief in Latin is (caput ) or Head.

 

Nice to know that the language backs up our reasoning.

we are getting to that bit.

See, I knew her majesty didn’t play doom.

Hehe, no, in fact at the ceremony in which she awarded Gates his KBE she asked Eric Clapton what he did for a living.

What does he do for a living?

[reverse]

Steals girlfriends from George Harrison of the Beatles

and fails to watch his children properly,

and plays the evolved lute.

 

he's a Bard

hey this is a better shot from the 9th century, Apparently the two chaps at the sides want a refund for their concert tickets.

The communists will rise

[reverse]

is that your hope or what you fear?

[Vladimir]

Just a dream. The earth belongs to us

[reverse]

two thirds of it are water,

 

how will you develope that area?

 

Now you have me curious.

 

We Still Haven’t fully defined Capitalism yet ,

so Communism is an unknown also.

 

Would you run the world from a central location?

 

Would you leave each culture intact with all their quirks and richness,

and put a regional governor in place.

 

(See when the Romans did that they had trouble with Caesar.)

( and don’t talk to me about Constantine )

 

What benefit do you think the world would get from following the communist way of life, and what did you think the communist way of life was?

[Phi for All]

Since the communists will rise, water surfaces can be developed on the backs of the floating proletariat.

Aww c’mon you guys ,

you are too easy.

Don’t let Vlad bait you.

Give him a bit of room to show how “comworld” might be practically organised and who it would benefit.

[Vladimir]

I see.

Capitalism, to my understanding, began when the kings of Europe, lost their power of comerce and the traders first arose. It was in this way that these traders could truly become independant and form for themselves true profit. The Kings then began to tax these traders, and thus your country was born.

However during the rise of comunism and socialism, prescious few capitalist countries remain, the first (and only) that springs to mind is the unitede states. I dont know whether ive answered a few questions, adn undoubtedly in the morning i'll regret the way i've said something.

Comunism, Never truly managed to be intigated (thanks to the Russian civil war supported by the allies and germany) all subsequent communist states were affected by the soviet union and their influence. It is because of this, and America's always delightful view on things different that people believe comunism to be evil and a bad thing

Reverse, are you taunting me?
