>>12729132Also, I thought about this a lot lately, and it seems to me that the obvious conclusion to capitalism is true communism for the rich while extermination for the rest. There will be a point in time when all the means of production will be concentrated in the hands of a select few. If you reach a certain level of technological progress that is sufficient to sustain the lives of the company owners (assuming you diversified your investments into shares of various companies from a wide range of industries), you suddenly don't need to worry about workers or even buyers of your products. If you can produce everything for your own consumption, you're suddenly self sufficient and I dependant from the rest of the world. For example you could own a fully automated farm, a fully automated slaughterhouse, machines that pick you fruits and vegetables, machines that cook for you, machines that clean after you etc. I could go on forever. Now the question, is what does the rest of the population do or what do you do with them? I'm guessing the best option for you is to exterminate them.
The only reason the world's top 100 richest people haven't exterminated us all is because we haven't reached that level of automation yet.
