Shooting A Filthy Rich Capitalist Looter
Our role in this struggle ...
 

An open letter,

The working class in general are capitalists who work hard for every penny that they get -- whether you are a blue collar worker or an entrepreneur. That being said, I cannot say the same for 'filthy rich looters' (or more accurately: autonomous business entities free from the laws and reigns of sovereign governments) that controls a large majority of the world's capital or, more specifically, the global economy (ie. the IMF/World Bank). These people or companies (which are inherently controlled by a small number of elites) got rich off the backs of landless peasants, workers victimized by union busting or the oppressed and poor in general. Of course, that is not to say that they aren't getting rich off of our backs as well. Whether we like it or not, we play an important part in all this. Our realities here in North America are quite different from those in Latin America or anywhere else which does not even compare. The things we slightly feel in our daily lives takes a whole different form in theirs. Unlike them, we have the luxury to raise our voices and drag these murderous thugs to the guillotene.

I don't want to settle for the status quo and accept things for the way they are. We can all strive to imitate the standard of living of the highest economic class in society but to them we will always be nothing but a bunch of monkeys -- sucking on any piece of shit system of living they kick down to us. Until we recognize the fact that the system of capitalism today is far from what Adam Smith espoused (one only needs to take a look at 'The Wealth of Nations' to see specific contradictions) or that he was a human being with flawed ideas that are not to be worshipped as infallible, we will never eliminate such a wide gap between the rich and the poor.

In Guatemala, there was a company called the United Fruit Company which was owned by filthy rich capitalist looters from the United States. This company owned the majority of lands in Guatemala. Lands that were unjustly and illegally taken away from peasant farmers. When Jacobo Arbenz democratically won the Presidency in 1951-54, he took land away from them with compensation so that the land can be redistributed amongst the people. The rest of the story follows a familiar historical trend: U.S. came in, installs a brutal dictator, trains highly specialized butchers, genocide, rapes the country in every which way possible, insurmountable debt, economic gap widen between the rich and the poor, and dumbasses ignore it and further perpetuate United States foreign policy with blind idiotic support. What bothers me even more is when some fucking idiot does it to be different and this person comes from a country that's been continually victimized. The same story over and over: let the victims pay for it. This is just one example. I have zero sympathy for these type of rich capitalist pigs. Any word out of their mouth is poison.

Again, people like us have an inherent role in this struggle in that we have to ensure that the groundwork is laid out so that we can grab a hold of this system -- that is continuously built on the backs of the poor and the clueless middle class -- by the throat and burn their houses to the damn ground. While we should all control ourselves in the personal sense in that we can appreciate the things we have and stop short of being spoiled brats, we need to keep the larger struggle in mind. The fight will need to rage on. This is a class struggle that is not polarized between the poor and the filthy rich. No, it is everyone else against a small number of filthy rich looting elites. And I have no problem putting a bullet in the back of their heads.

Of course, beyond these generalities we turn to specific cases and judge on a case by case basis. If the Nuremburg Laws applied today on the United States government, every single President that country had since World War II would have been executed for war crimes.
