    BEHEADED

    Decapitating the white marble idol of Mrs. Thatcher is not an effective attack on capitalism. It is a wrong target, despite having great significance.

    We cannot afford to make mistakes when we attack capitalism because it is a David and Goliath situation.

    Unless our sling shot is deadly accurate the giant will not be slain.

    It is possible to select the precise and exactly correct target and go for the kill.

    A capitalist manipulates and exploits the means of exchange in order to obtain wealth he is not entitled to.

    For starters, the capitalist counterfeits money by sleight of hand. He seduces people into accepting credit as a loan of money. By dishonest means he manufactures the means of exchange and compounds the felony by persuading the victim of fraud to pay the capitalist to cheat him. A capitalist charges interest for the use of credit.

    He goes further with his crimes. He uses the uncertainty of the value of credit to run international monetary casinos called money markets.

    With these gambling houses he creams off ever 50% of the entire wealth produced by honest labour.

    He is public enemy number one. The most terrible of all terrorists since Gengis Kahn.

    But we kill him off by exposing the truth and lay aside the heavy steel bar which strikes the wrong target.
