   About the Capitalist Kids
"Capitalism can survive this crisis. But the world can't survive another capitalist comeback."

--Naomi Klein



"As the global market comes crashing down, children nursed on the milk of capitalism will find the values with which they have been raised increasingly irrelevant."

--Sarah Nardi



"If we are to save the planet--by ending Pax Americana, rethinking the idea that war is inevitable, moving away from oil to alternative energies, putting the brakes on a consumer society gone wild, treating poverty and inequality anywhere as a threat to justice everywhere--first we have to imagine a new landscape."

--Steve Cobble

REVIEWS:

"Good set." -- Joe Queer

*********



The long awaited disappointment from the Capitalist Kids is finally here! The brand new album, "Current Events", featuring 14 songs in the key of awesome! This album is both sword and shield against the evil capitalist forces of oppression! And it's only $2! You owe it to yourself to come to the show and buy one! So get with the countdown, shake this square world and blast off for Kicksville with the Capitalist Kids' "Current Events"!

Many thanks for the add. Hope you enjoy the music and message behind it. My mission in life is to fight Human trafficking...understanding the individual pain of others is sometimes to painful for an other individual to touch and that is frightening ...
what i mean is that someone whose life is not traumatized and brutalized as a regular sequence of every day events unconsciously seeks the camouflage and shelter of apathy and banality from the reality of such devastating anguish and terror ...but the spirit of young people who are used as sex slaves in the systematized global industry of human trafficking is now reaching out to the human fellowship in hope and desperation and through technology ...

it is scary when humanity turns a blind eye to this horror ...its like ignoring genocide whilst it is happening ...

what i am asking is that if you hear the cry of these young people who are existing in an environment of torture and brutality each and every day that you then please do not turn away from them ...

please reach deeply into your heart and soul and join a movement that challenges modern slavery in the 21st century ...

Dear Money Money Children,

Do you guys have a release with that Waterboarding song on it? I haven't gotten it out of my head since the Brickfight show.

Or, alternatively, do you have a full length out?

Your super best friend,
-Bryan
