Capitalism Kills 10 Million Kids a Year



I've had it up to here with this "100 million killed by Communism", "Stalin and Mao, the biggest murderers of all time". No Communist except Pol Pot ever held a candle to what capitalist serial killers and mass murderers do year in and out without fail.

As you can see, 200 million kids around the world don't have access to any kind of basic health care (I would argue that that figure is way too low), which kills 10 million of them (5%) a year due to completely preventable diseases like pneumonia and diarrhea.

And if you are going to start bitching about overpopulation, number 1, why are you are capitalist? Capitalism mandates and demands an endlessly expanding population. Capitalism says a declining or even steady population is going to be a catastrophe for the capitalist economy.

What's the matter DUmbass, can't take the truth? Only a truly inhuman, depraved sociopath defends Stalin and Mao.

Probably died with their bellies full of capitalist charity food.

Communism would have just starved them to death per the "Great Frig'em" in Russia and China's glorious beginnings...........and don't forget North Diarrhea.

I dunno.

I got lost with the ghastly orwellian primitive's comment about "200 million kids around the world don't have any access to any kind of basic healthcare;" I suspect the number's rather higher than that, and that hundreds of millions of them live in socialist paradises of the workers and peasants with free medical care for all.

I also noticed the absence of any mention about how many children are killed by the abortion industry.

The ghastly orwellian primitive's "concern" for the children of the world rings hollow.

He just wanted some cheap political points, but does anyone see the irony of the DUmbass's name?

Capitalism is the system that has produced enough wealth to give the conservative portion of it's practitioners the ability to donate millions of dollars worth of food and medical assistance to those 10 million kids every year.  Of course, I'm sure the DUmp is full of people who donate regularly to World Vision and Mercy Ships and Compassion International.  ::)
