Capitalism: Difference between revisions
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Eh. It's not trivial that the commodity form is necessary for capitalism. Hence why most economists have a completely different notion of "commodity". The SEP defines capitalism in their article on socialism and only references commodities in passing as a hypothetical. Is there a source in universe for the juxtaposition with feudalism and communism?
(Lol that definition was a bit weird, yeah. That strangest thing was it was a 100% accurate defintion... just so out of place on a DW wiki. Anyway, fixed typo and added in refs for Feudalism and Communism.) Tag: 2017 source edit |

Capitalism could be exploited to the extreme with no regard to the lives of others. [[Ganymede Systems]] began to not providing [[oxygen]] in [[space station]]s and forced people to buy it via [[Smartsuit|smart suits]]. They also began killing workers when they hadn't been productive enough and brought into new workers. However, thanks to the [[Twelfth Doctor]], a rebellion was started and Ganymede Systems was overthrown. According to the Doctor, the incident "about wrap[ped] it up for capitalism." but clarified its end only led to humanity making "a new mistake" ([[TV]]: ''[[Oxygen (TV story)|Oxygen]]''), and, indeed, concepts like [[trade]], [[commerce]], and [[class]] were shown to outlast the [[Earth]] itself.
