1. Body smells are erotic and sexual. Capitalist don't like that because they are impotent and opposed to all manifestations of sensuality and sexuality. Sexually awakened people are potentially dangerous to the capitalists and their rigid, asexual system.
2. Body smells remind us that we are animals. Capitalists don't want us to be reminded of that. Animals are dirty. They eat things off the ground, not out of plastic wrappers. They are openly sexual. They do'nt wear suits or ties, and they don't get their hair done. They don't how up to work on time.
3. Body smells are unique. Everyone has her own body smell. Capitalist don't like individuality. There are milions of body smells but only a few deordorant smells. Capitalists like that.
4. Some deodorants are harmful. Capitalists like that because they are always looking for new illness to cure. Capitalists love to invent new medicines. Medicines make money for them and win them prizes; they also cause new illnesses so capitalists can invent even more medicines.
5. Deodorants cost you money. Capitalist are espedially pleased about that.
6. Deororants hide the damage that capitalist products cause your body. Eating meat and other chemical-filled food sold by capitalists make you smell bad. Wearing pantyhose makes you smell bad. Capitalist don't want you to stop wearing panyhose or eating meat.
7. Deodorant-users are insecure. Capitalists like insecure people. Insecure people don't start trouble. Insecure people also buy room fresheners, hair conditioners, makeup, and magazines with articles about dieting.
8. Deodorants are unnecessary. Capitalists are very proud of that and they win marketing awards for it.
