Capitalism’s Obituary

After a long illness caused by a birth defect and years on debt life-support, capitalism has died. Close relatives remain in denial.

Repeated resuscitations beyond the advice of attending doctors left it brain dead.

Debt and commodity saturation caused circulatory clots and finally cardiac arrest, although an autopsy could not find any signs of a heart. 

Trillions in claims to debt known as wealth were wiped out.

The formerly rich and poor have now found common ground.

Everyone is asking, what now?
