I love capitalism

I love the last 500 years of capitalist development. Thanks to it, I have a washing machine, modern dentistry, trial by jury, anesthetic, the opportunity to be more than my husband's housekeeper and PA, a tiny tiny likelihood of dying in childbirth, a very great likelihood that any children i bear will live long and prosper, sort of, state monopoly on the use of violence (pretty much), central heating, gortex, safe mountaineering equipment, an excellent bicycle and fruit in winter.

Capitalism, I Thank You.

And now, I think it is time for something even better.
