Capitalistic ideology is bad

Hey sorry for not posting in time. I'm in finals week and I've been kind of been beat up by tests. But to start this out, I'll be giving a overview on this debate than I'll give ya'll a line by line on his arguments. We can see in our day to day lives that capitalism is bad. Just look to Africa. It is the way it is now because of our greed and capitalism. The only reason places like Sub-Saharan Africa are as dead as they today is because we continue to exploit them for their resources. Back in the colonial days, we exploited them for cheap labor to only further our need ignoring our morals. In the next generation we started to exploit them for raw materials such as coal, and in our current generations we are now exploiting them for diamonds. capitalism may seem good because the people like my opponent who only listen to the lies it spews will never learn the truth. If capitalism is the one that allowed for africa to become ravaged, than this is the same mentality of solving for killing with the knife that killed in the first place. now lets go on to his actual points. his first point is that our government has nothing to do with whether or not we are moral in our day to day, but this is simply not true. We are born and raised in a capitalistic society and we can see this in our education program. In capitalism, we are trained to listen to those higher than us just as we listen to our bosses in the office. We are also trained to obey a "higher" authority. This can obviously be seen when we attend high school. We have a set routine schedule in which we must attend school, and line up in a single file line or we get punished, just like in the corporate world. (I'm going off on a tangent so let me get back ^^!). My main point here is that once we are ejected into this society, we are born and raised with capitalistic ideals. We study hard so we can a good college so eventually we can get more money than other people and gain massive amounts of power. Just look at it this way, when a boss hires someone, he does not see him as a man who is honest or kind or gentle, but as a man or women who can make him BIG money. capitalism DOES allow us to commit moral atrocities because it simply justifies maximizing profits while minimizing costs. To the BIG CEOs, the blacks are only customers who will buy their pills, but since they can't cough up the cash, tough luck. My opponent than comes back around and tries to tell you you that capitalism is the only reason we can have charity. This argument is completely flawed. It is the fact of this so called "charity" that naturally establishes a higher being. By having this charity it assumes we are better than someone else and that we need to be "kind to them" because we are morally better. If we were all capitalistic and greedy, we would simply just give it to them and this word "charity" wouldn't even exist. NOW lets go onto the BIG issue of incentives. This is basically the only argument my opponent has riding for him/her. My opponent basically says that only in a capitalistic society will we strive to obtain a better society because we naturally want to be better than others. This argument may seem logical but clearly isn't true. Remember, my opponent assumes that life is worth living as long as we have blood flowing through our veins. He cries for innovation so we can have better lives, but is it all really necessary? As long as we achieve ultimate happiness is that not enough? Could you not imagine a world in which people who wanted to become novelists wrote because it were there PASSION, not because they wanted money for it, and that people could take turns doing the dirty work? If people got sick, could a man who has a good heart and a passion for helping people not do it? People who naturally assume that if we couldn't earn money, everyone would just want to pick up trash. Personally, I would rather spend my days writing novels for free so the community could enjoy it rather than groveling around in the trash (not that theirs anything wrong with it). To sum up my incentive argument, I state that human life is not just blood flowing through a body, but about how much happiness one can achieve throughout ones life. If you are happy picking up trash for the rest of your life but sustaining yourself, fine. If you are happy writing novels like me than thats great. It is because we're ejected into this capitalistic society that we assume that our only incentive is money. Now to summarize the debate, remember in the beginning of the debate I give you the analogy of the big pharmaceutical companies denying the people in sub saharan africa pills. Remember the PREEMPT i give in my example that if Pharmaceutical companies really cared about the indiginous people but could not afford to lose their corporations, than they could always let the third world countries buy generics from Brazil or India. the fact that out of 35 BIG PHARMACEUTICAL companies, NOT ONE stood up to the challenge of giving the people in SSA free drugs, it only proves that they care about their inanimate pills than people that are mothers and fathers to needy children. Remember I just need to prove to the public that capitalistic ideology is bad, not that i need to give a counter ideology that will suit the world. I just believe that if we as human beings allow people to be ruthlessly murdered by HIV/AIDS while we hold the key to their survival in the surplus and the only thing we care about is that the CEO of the big pharma can have a new ferrari rather than save hundreds of thousands of lives, we as human beings as a race should not be allowed to live if we allow this kind of genocide in which we are all responsible for. thanks! I hope i wasn't too wordy and I hope I uncovered some new outlooks on the world for ya'll! ^_^ evO!
