THE ONLY TRUTH ABOUT CAPITALISM.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: -- My fellow Nigerians and all lovers of the humanity, the true philanthropists of our time, patrons of the modern age, the dreamers of grand dreams, all free thinkers and productive elements of our time, believers of man´s right to govern himself and his society in peace and harmony, where every human being hopes to be equal before our law, both the pauperisms, the riches, and the wants, would love to exist in harmony, only if our history of the past can be re-write for good.

Yet our inglorious history of the past are all accounted for misery of our today´s by the rapacity of our rulers who makes and interpret our laws for their own personal benefits. Here, in Nigeria, we are all yet to be free, free from the voracity of our bad leadership, our rulers makes different laws for different people with different voices and intentions, one for the rich and the other for the poor. The rich oppresses the poor on daily basis. The labouring men who work every day are yet to feel the impact of our so-called dividend of democracy; we now suffer the mind conflicts of the true meaning of democratic progress with this un-sagacious capitalism of grab it all.

Our vicious cry is now raised that capital in some mysterious way oppresses our industries and our individual mind-sets as well; that the capitalist is now the enemy of the man who labours.
Who is a capitalist, if I may ask? Every man who has good health; every man with good sense; every one who has had his dinner, and has enough left for supper, is to that extent, a capitalist. Every man with a good character, who has the credit to borrow some Naira or to buy a meal, is a capitalist; and nine out of ten of the great capitalists are simply successful workingmen.

In as much, am opinionated socialist democratic essayist, I have nothing against energetic capitalism, but it must be a productive capitalism, free from corruption of which I bet to promote, it will not be all out money grabbing like the banks, insurance industries, churches and corrupt politicking, but for diligent production of quality consumable goods, food and services in a much colossal form.
Because poverty itself is a crime and is the result of idleness, extravagances, and inattention to business, though to these rules there are also thousands of exceptions.
For a more clear example, the man who has wasted his time, who has thrown away his opportunities, is apt to envy the man who has not wasted his own time and efforts, For instance, there are five apprentices working in a furniture shop. One of them attends to his business where you can hear the music of his hammer late and early morning time.
 He was actually in love with some girl on the next street. He has made up his mind to be a successful businessperson first and then make somebody else happy as well; to have a home; and while he is working, in his imagination he can see his own fireside, with the firelight of great imaginations falling upon the face of a wife to be and a child.
The other four men work as little as they can, spend the Saturdays and Sundays in dissipation of the city wine bar with some bottles of beer, have the monday headaches, and as a result, never advance. The industrious one, the one in love, gains the confidence of his employer, and in a little while, he cuts out work from others. The first thing you know he has a shop of his own, the next a store; because he is now a man of reputation, the man of character, the man of known integrity and identity, he can now buy all he wishes upon credit. The next thing you know he is married, he has built his own house, he is happy, and his dream has been realized. After a while, the same other four, having pursued the old course, stand on the corner some Sunday when he rides by. He has a carriage, his wife sits by his side, her face covered with smiles, and now he has two children, their eyes beaming with elation and love. In addition, thereupon, these four adjourn to same neighbouring wine bar and pass a resolution that there is an irrepressible conflict between capital and labor
.

To me there is no serious conflict; capital and labour are all in the same page of creativity, a journey of one to another where labour creates capital ,all we need is seriousness as people with much concerns for quality control and government altruistic interest in food productions and intellectual sagacity, the very sadness of this world can end only if we can ideally look towards productive capitalism tonic with serious social market control and supervision as the way out against fake, phoney corruptions and fraud etc.

All for the general benefits for those who have and for those who don’t have, with the massive production of food, goods and services, the prices of food, which is the only means of sustaining our world population that is now increasing in geometrical proportions will automatically crash and the chains of unnecessary monopoly and dominations will be broken for once, then the middle class will remerge much stronger to create a balance between the rich and poor.

But if our ruling class choose to continue in their rapacious habits of outrageous grabbing of the national wealth for personal cupidity, with such mental opacity of false privileged order, without re-infusing it back to our system to provide the enabling environment for productive economy, then we all will be inviting a more dangerous revolution of which I hold on as self-evident, cause in such order of the nature ,where the strongest vent her energy and greeds, all out on the only means of subsistence and refuse re-distributions of such wealth to all as time continuous to change, of which the whole universe is in ceaseless change, shifting to correspond with the shifting environment, when this movement that is so rapid eventually comes, that moment when most men cannot adapt themselves to to the changes of nature, we then calls the phenomenon that will follow it a revolution which may be more catastrophic for the ruling class, of which am drawing my inference here from the common law of physics that points that whatever that goes up must come down, people are hungry and agitated ,the common man is becoming dangerously smarter than before ,their shackles of ignorance are losing off every day, the power holding institutions of the elites are shaking ,the national security are now over stretched, even the hard working are crying, the ground are cracking likewise the foundations of modern-day capitalism.


The only way now out for this looming threat is productive economy which is a revolution of its own, back to collective agricultural production and creative economy as the most alternative, no more shilly-shally in dealing with this impending doom, lets the politicians bring back all the money they have stolen and re-invest it back to our economy, let all that have the means move back into massive production of food and products, let create more job for all, lets engage every idle hand with something to work with and earn a better living, so that at end, we will all together build a gargantuan productive economy.

Let us start from somewhere, thank you all and remain blessed.
