So the market is an 'invisible hand' but any other form of centralised planning, that you yourself can't name or suggest isn't?

How can Capitalism have 'ran its course'? It was never on course. Even in the most economically 'free' parts of the world... interest rates are still set by a central government, people are still taxed, imports and expor

The fact that you're referring to 'capitalism' in context of the present day, indicates to me that you have misunderstood Capitalism, with all due respect. There is no 'damning and well-supported' case against Capit

Well for a start, by definition we don't have Capitalism, so any article referring to 'current day Capitalism' has missed what Capitalism in its true essence is about. The simple act of free trade, property rights and self-o

Amazing answer, that last paragraph about feeling bad about yourself is exactly how I've felt. I've been working in agencies where you've been producing other peoples ideas and dreams but haven't been working towards any

Currently fighting that same problem, I'm more of a programmer, but I'm being placed on really, really fiddly UI 'features'. I've made about 10 cups of tea, gone to the toilet about 6 times, read every tweet tweeted

I'm glad you think so! I was making a light-hearted observation and I'm actually 100% in favour of legalising and exploring the potentials of some of these substances for people with severe mental health problems. Mental health pr

You're an idiot, I wasn't making a moronic criticism, I happen to be 100% anti-drug prohibition, but yet again on Hacker News, I've been massively down-voted and insulted for making a joke.

Well, on a drug where you've forgotten the difference between up and down and are now convinced you're able to walk through solid objects, I'm pretty sure you'd forget about being depressed...

I can absolutely second this, I read his smoking book and quit immediately after I put it down, laughing all the way... it really is the winning formula for addiction!

No I'm not, I was making a joke. Though no, I don't agree with Marxism.

Millions wasted on expensive systems and software to manage and negate the damage caused by an inherently inefficient method of running an economy. One size does not fit all, no matter how much state software you create to make it so. If yo

I didn't feel that comfortable about having a bookmark called 'Squirt' in my bookmark bar, so I've renamed it. I was hoping someone would release this though since I saw the app version.

Having been someone who hasn't really had the money, time or interest to invest in bitcoins, this submission doesn't make a great deal of sense to me; despite one particular angry sweary guy shouting at everyone claiming it '

They should reconsider MDMA for therapy as well, there was no good reason to ban it, and it was working well for people with post traumatic stress syndrome, people with terminal illnesses etc.

Elementary OS, just because it's Debian/Ubuntu based so it's nice and easy to use, but it's also fairly light-weight. I think because it's quite a nice looking distro as well, it just makes work a bit more of a plea

Everyone needs to read this, no given person, our group of persons should ever have the power to detain, abuse and incarcerate like this. This is sickening.

Iceland were spot on in letting the market decide the fate of the banks. Here in the UK we claim banks have too much power and point the finger at 'Capitalism'. But Brown bailed out our banks with tax money which artificially empo
