Class Contradiction Can Never Be Settled in Capitalist Society--Rodong Sinmun

Class Contradiction Can Never Be Settled in Capitalist Society--Rodong Sinmun

Pyongyang, November 7 (KCNA) -- Social and class contradiction can never be settled in capitalist society, says Rodong Sinmun Monday in a bylined article.

The recent demos, which swept over the world under such slogans as "We oppose to capitalism", "Give us jobs", "Elimination of poverty" and "We are 99%", have made a great impact on capitalist countries, the article says, adding:

Those mass demos staged in metropolises of capitalist countries are a result of the extremely sharpened social and class contradiction that the rich get ever richer and poor get ever poorer.

"We are 99%" is one of the slogans raised by working people in capitalist countries in their demos. It means that the privileged circles accounting for less than one percent of population seize the most of social property while working masses accounting for 99% suffer from destitution and poverty.

The demos are not sporadic ones but global ones as they were premeditated and popularized on a worldwide scale. They are little different from a social and political quake that crippled the governments of capitalist countries. These global demos struck fear into the governments of capitalist countries which boasted of their development.

The demos prove that the more capitalism develops the wider and sharper gap between poor and rich and the social and class contradiction become, thus bringing earlier its bankruptcy.

The advocators of capitalism have so far argued, peddling the theory of "class cooperation" and the "third choice", that it is possible in capitalist society to remove class contradiction and make a compromise between classes.

But, the present reality proves that such argument is groundless. In capitalist society the social and class contradiction does not decrease but is growing more acute with each passing day.

Capitalism is not a society desired by humankind. Sweeping over the world is the wind of making overall analysis of and rejecting capitalism. -0-
