- andybak 9y agoThe rumours of it's death are greatly exaggerated. Environmental catastrophe is the only likely trigger I can see. Without that, capitalism will adapt and survive - of course with the inevitable pendulum shifts between it's more authoritarian and more benign forms. A final thought - are people using the term in a clearly defined way or is it just a label for "that bad stuff" from the left and "freeeedom" from the right?
