Capital's insatiable thirst for profit


Our lives are dominated by the fundamental aim of the capitalist system of production – profit for the owners.

A once-progressive system, it has promoted such a huge increase in industrial and agricultural productivity that every person in the world could now have access to all the goods and services needed for a reasonable life.

But a reasonable life for all is denied because the system is driven by the profit motive. If there is no prospect of a profit, there will be no production.

We would be stupid to allow this to continue. But continue it will, until the world’s workers decide to end capital’s domination by turning production for profit into production for use
