: By whom? By social engineering or by sheer accident of birth? The notion of 'original sin' is abominable, neither new born rich nor new born poor owe eachother, or carry a burden of personal responsibility regarding their 'status'. If so, how? This is partly why I resist 'overthrowing' the rich.By both, people are born to a station, people with power enforce class divisions, and by chaos, as people make choices that effect the class structure. Whatever, its is a thing created by system, which is why teh system must go...
: Using sports to defend capitalism was quite rightly critized a few months ago on this board. It is also inappropriate to use it to describe 'class conflict'. The basis of your argument seems to be the idea of "if someone wins, another must lose". I may as well join in the fun and make a pro-capitalist sports analogy (100m race!) to show why this isnt necessarily so.
Erm, no, tyeh basis of my argument was to show:
1:How capitalists can exist as a class.
2:How despite varied personal interests they share a fundamental class interest.
I made no such commets about winning and losing, it was an illustration of a point.
