When robots are given control over weapons and dealing death, we have moved onto the slippery slope to Skynet. Machines have no conscience. Then again, neither do Capitalists. But at least people might have family who could persuade them of their evil acts and stop them. What does a machine care?

Reading that passage, it might be apparent that Capitalists resemble machines in that they set out on a path, in their case one of greed and ruthless ambition, and don’t stop until they get there regardless of how many get hurt along the way. Are Capitalists little more than biological machines without a moral compass? Does a conscience, and adherence to it, separate humans from inhumans? Therefore, are rabid Capitalists all inhuman?
