Apparently capitalism is even more late stage than we'd been led to believe.

@peterdrake No such thing as late stage capitalism, capitalism doesnt have stages, it is the default state

@freemo @peterdrake

I think in many senses capitalism is indeed currently the default state, but it wasn't in the past and probably won't be in the future!

@iankenway

I disagree, capitalism is the default even among animals.. Teh key is understanding that capitalism is not something on the opposite end of a spectrum with socialism... socialism in the form you have in europe is still capitalism, As long people are free to trade among themselves it is capitalism

"capitalism is the default even among animals."

Any evidence? Chapter and verse for this statement? Me? I hate fundamentalism in all its forms...
