Slaves to Capitalism by Ahmed Constable .
Capitalism is the lifeblood of the United States.
The buying and selling of information, products, and souls are what keeps this country alive. Our want for tangible valuables is an addiction sustained by corporate owners and our social arrogance. For the economy to benefit us all, Americans should become more aware of our addiction to capitalism, and more willing to break away from the chains of our inequitable consumer culture. . The difference between a luxury and a necessity is the difference between a want and a need. We want the luxury car, beautiful home, and extravagant cuisine.
