It turns out all of our time and effort spent in political debate will ultimately be a waste of time.  Capitalism, socialism, and any other -isms will die out (with the annihilation of the human race) within 100 years, according to several minutes of research I did on the interweb.

Likely causes of the end of all human life:

1. Nanobot rampage – winner of most adorable agent of doom
2. Subjugation of mankind by robots – Hollywood’s vision of the future must be true.  They’ve been right about everything else so far
3. Zombie apocalypse - as long as they move at a slow walk, probably the most entertaining way to meet our demise
4. Accidental creation of a black hole that swallows the world – (also an awesome movie that was filmed in St. Louis)
5. Global warming – 123 out of 245 scientists agree, it’s 3% more likely than a zombie apocalypse!
