AJ is talking about your sexist post again. Do you have any idea what is sexist about this post? I sure can't figure it out and I went back several posts before this.

Anyone: Can we be enlightened about the sexism here, diagrammed preferably? There is not a single word referencing gender in either post. Maybe it's like the secret pictures on the box of Camel cigarets, only less obvious to those of normal minds.

Why would capitalism make cars explode and planes crash?


You responded and said:

Unregualted capitalism has done just that. Cost benefit. How many people can we kill to make a defect not worth fixing. How much can we cut back on maintenance before the bottom line is affected negatively? Don't be naive. These types of calculations go on in most industries. Look at the drug industry and orphan drugs. Please, capitalism kills like any other social system- it's always a choice of who gets to die and who gets to live, who gets to live badly and who gets to live well.
