### Central Tenets
Capitalism - an economic system touted as a beacon of freedom and opportunity, has led to wealth and power accumulation for the few and exploitation for the many. If we look at the tenets of this system then the reasons for it become apparent.
<b>Private Ownership of the Means of Production:</b> Our collective labor powers the wheels of production, yet the means of production—land, factories, and machinery—remain in the hands of a privileged few. This concentration of ownership creates a power imbalance, where decisions affecting our lives are made by the powerful few whose interests are opposite to ours. The consequences ripple through society, as wealth and resources flow to the privileged few rather than being shared for the well-being of all.
<b>Exploitation of Labor:</b> We, the workers, toil day in and day out, driven by the need to survive. However, our labor is undervalued under capitalism. The capitalist class profits from the fruits of our labor by providing us with compensation that does not reflect the full value we produce. That difference is the profit received by capitalists.

That stolen difference is the profit received by capitalists.
<b>The Pursuit of Profit:</b> In the capitalist framework, profit reigns supreme. Our well-being, the health of our communities, and the environment take a backseat to the relentless pursuit of wealth accumulation for the privileged few. Wages are suppressed, working conditions deteriorate, and natural resources are depleted without regard for sustainability.
Just as a house needs a solid foundation to stand strong, any system that governs our lives requires a sturdy base to support its structure. Unfortunately, capitalism is built upon an inherently flawed foundation. It contributes to power imbalances, economic exploitation, a compromised collective well-being, and a disconnection from meaningful work. It is clear that without addressing these foundational flaws, the system itself will always fall short in providing a just and equitable society.
