THE other day I read a riposte on Facebook in response to a pro-socialist comment: “Why, if capitalism is so bad are so many people clamouring to be let into the USA, UK and other developed capitalist countries?”
A comment that cannot be easily brushed aside. Of course, the tragic irony is that most of those thousands of would-be immigrants are fleeing areas that have been devastated by precisely those “super-capitalist” countries to which they are attempting to flee.
