Economic Religion belief system comparisons
I was meditating the other day on the socio-economic systems and how they would fair when put under the comparisons of religions they would represent. Let me be clear that I'm not evaluating which socio-economic system is the best, only what they would corrolate to when comparing their beliefs.
Communism - no centralized government - there is a collective ownership of property and the organization of labor for the common advantage of all members.
This, in my opinion, represents Buddism. All are equal, all share in the blessings and curses created by one another via karma. Karma is the driving force in doing good in the Buddist faith, while a type of social-karma is the driving force behind a communist society.
Communism - An economic system based on "you put in your fair share; you get your fair share". This is a prime example of Karma. You get what you put out.
Socialism - the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy. Socialism also rejects class-based society. All citizens are equal, with equal rights and focus on quality of living.
Socialism represnts the Judeo-Christian-Islamic belief of God in control of everything while the believers or citizens have a responsibility to take care of those who cannot take care of themselves. Jesus was a Liberal Socialist, who would've thought.
Socialism - An economic system based on "you get a share regardless of your contribution". This represents the Judeo-Christian-Islamic view of helping those who cannot help themselves, regardless of what they can contribute.
Which brings me to Capitalism. Ah, yes, the great American way. A system where he who works or strives the hardest, makes the most money. A system solely based on gaining for oneself and ones family, separate from the concerns or needs of others.
There is only one religion that shares these principles. The view of "Fuck everyone else, I'm here for me." resides in one faith and one faith only. Satanism (Atheistic Satanists specifically) holds the belief that this world is your oyster so you should do with it as you wish. If you wish to steal that oyster from someone else who needs it, oh well. If you want to take that oyster and shove it in someone's eye cause they looked at you wrong, make sure you grab two so that he can't see at all. Satanism and Capitalism are different belief systems flying under the same flag.
Capitalism - An economic system based on "survival of the fittest". No faith better epitomizes this than Satanism.
