Hypothesis: Brief Summary of the "Law" of the History of Capitalism --
Competitive capitalism is inherently unstable.
Competition leads to the negation of competition.
Some competitors succeed, most fail.
The succeeding competitors swallow up the assets of the failing competitors.
As a result, the concentration of economic power grows, in the hands of the
successful competitors.
But, as the mass of profit-productivity-enhancing fixed capital grows relative
to the mass of circulating capital, the vulnerability of the concentrated owners
of capital to devastating competition from "upstart" new entrants, employing
less costly and/or more productive fixed capital, grows apace.
The concentrated capital owners can be forced, by such competition, to retire
their thus obsolete fixed capital at a loss, long before its
full-physical-life-time-use "full amortization" would have paid for it with
profit-returns, AND while they still owe debt-service on the loans they took out
to purchase that now-worthless fixed capital, perhaps having to pay that
debt-service for many years still to come, while also having to take out NEW
loans on the NEW, replacement fixed-capital, that is competitive with the
"upstart" new entrant's more advanced fixed capital.
The compounding of debt-service payment expenses on fixed capital no longer in
use, and thus no longer generating any revenue "coverage" of its own
debt-service costs, combined with the continual writing-off of fixed capital
"obsoleted" in this way, once the value of fixed capital has become a large or
even a predominant portion of total capital, can induce a secular decline in the
net rate of profit return on investment for core concentrate capital.
Later, this capital-return-rate decline is "socialized" -- converted into inflation losses to the public [i.e., mainly, to losses to the working class -- to the buying power of their wages and savings], via "Central Bank" fractional reserve monetary systems [fiat debt-money-creation systems], designed for that purpose by the core plutocracy.
As a result, the owners of concentrated, core capital move massively to destroy
such "upstart", new entrant, new technology based competition, both from
entrepreneurs in the industrial capitalist core countries, and from other
countries, outside that core, that have the potential to industrialize -- a
potential that they seek to crush by the setting up of progress-suppressing
comprador servant dictatorships throughout the yet-to-industrialize peripheries
of the core capitalist countries.
The successful competitors, the core concentrated capital owners, have
sufficient capital-profit-funds, and other forms of power, to begin "buying-out"
the national states of the core -- legislature, executive, and judiciary.
They leverage their prostitution of these governments to destroy real
competition, arranging corporate welfare of all kinds for themselves, and biased
regulatory strangulation for their smaller competitors, especially the new
entrants who are fielding the most innovative, higher-productivity technologies.
Now "Above the Law", the concentrated-ownership plutocracy begins to kidnap
["disappear"], or assassinate, or otherwise ruin [often using the
unconstitutionally-expanded police powers of their prostitute-governments]
inventors whose innovations threaten to "techno-depreciate" the plutocrats'
fixed capital via more-advanced, more-productive technology. [EXAMPLE:
HYPOTHESIS -- the Rockefeller Oil/Finance Plutocracy has brought about the rapid
demise, in one way or another, of every single inventor/scientist who has ever
announced a successful fusion reactor design].

So, the plutocracy also uses its wealth, and the military power of the core
capitalist state(s) which it has prostituted, financed for "free" to that
plutocracy, via the tax revenues paid to those states mainly by their
non-wealthy, non-plutocrat citizens, to install, and to maintain,
servant-dictatorships all over the periphery of the core/"advanced" capitalist
state(s), whose function is to murder the progressive citizens of those nations,
and to destroy any industrialization or technological advance in those
peripheral states.
Otherwise, the core plutocracy would face "techno-depreciation" of its capital
assets from abroad, from the periphery, where a combination of traditionally low
wages, and latest-vintage, higher-productivity capital equipment, in competition
against the plutocracy's older-vintage/obsolete capital equipment, and the
higher wages won through generations of bloody struggles against that plutocracy
in the core state(s), would "techno-depreciate" that plutocracy's capital
assets, and/or depress its rate of return on those assets, to an extent which
would threaten the ability to hold onto power of that plutocracy.
These plutocrats next even begin to fund anti-science, anti-technology, and
"people are pollution" [pro-humanocide] ideologies [e.g., Rockefeller
"Eugenics"], to help block further advances in human social productivity, which
would devalue their capital, and, hence, since they won't allow social
productivity to rise, work to achieve public acquiesence in global
multi-genocide, since productivity blocking accumulates an ever more miserable
population of poor people worldwide, ever more likely to revolt against the
plutocracy.
The plutocracy therefore acts to murder these people pre-emptively.
Thus, the self-degeneration of representative-democratic, competitive capitalism
into totalitarian, humanocidal state-capitalism is inevitable.
This path represents the immanent "law of motion" of industrial-capital-based
human societies.
The only way that I see out of this nightmare is to increasingly put the
productive assets of society into the hands of socialized producers'
cooperatives, which must meet the test of market competition -- e.g., the
Equitists' "Stewardship Equity" rights.
Control -- not ownership, but stewardship -- of productive assets would, in that
way, be widely dispersed, creating constitutional-citizen-economic-rights-based
economic checks-and-balances, conserving the checks-and-balances on "customer
service quality" provided by market competition, and blocking the
hyper-concentration of capital-asset-value seen today, which leads rapidly to
the global self-destruction of human society.
This will require a popular revolution in the "core of the core" of
state-capitalism -- in the U.S. -- much like the one which overthrew Stalinist
state-capitalism in Russia and Eastern Europe, but, this time, it must be, if it
is to succeed, a revolution aimed DIRECTLY at the ruling
Rockefeller/Morgan/Rothschild/[...] invisible dictatorship, which was able to
pervert and suppress the Eastern European/Russian revolutions against
state-capitalism, installing new servant-dictators there, because it was in a
momentaneously safe, privileged position to strike at them, since it was not
directly vulnerable to those revolutions.
This revolution, to succeed, must be aimed at GREATER individual liberty, not
less.
It must be a revolution whose goal is the CONSERVATIVE EXTENSION of the U. S.
Constitution and Bill of Rights, so as to add ECONOMIC CHECKS AND BALANCES, and
new Species of Citizen Equity, beyond but still including Capital-Equity -- New
Citizen Economic Rights -- to the Political Rights and checks-and-balances
already enshrined in -- even if honored mostly "in the breach", especially
lately -- the Bill Of Rights of that Constitution.
It must be, to succeed, a revolution whose demand is an amendment of the U. S.
Constitution, establishing a Political-ECONOMIC DEMOCRACY.
It can be a legal, non-violent movement for constitutional amendment, using the
legally-established channels for amendment.
Unfortunately, the Caligulan, Neroan, hyper-pervertoids of the U. S. plutocracy
can be expected to attack this movement illegally, with all the ultra-violence
that they can muster, until or unless this movement becomes popular enough --
just as the popularity of the revolutions in Eastern Europe and the former USSR
eventually stayed the hand of the vicious secret police and the pro-Stalinist
army elements, flash-freezing those craven bullies in their fear of popular
wrath.
How much more mass murder will the people of the United States tolerate from the
Rocke-Nazi, "RICO" U.S. "government" before they rise up?
Pining away for a utopia of stable, perpetual free capitalist competition, a la,
e.g., Ron Paul, a utopia that does not exist, and that cannot exist, is, well,
ineffective, and impractical.
