Capitalism is the economy we use to determine who gets what in society. 

Do you work for a living? Or are you wealthy? 

When we say “the rich get richer and the poor get poorer” that is capitalism.

Is any of this happening to you?

You work, but still worry about food, housing, or healthcare

Car trouble or no ride that could make you lose your job

Food problems: not enough food, eating junk food, or constant food stress

Health issues anxiety, depression, or illness caused or made worse by stress

Work is hurting your body: injury, burnout, exhaustion, overwork

No way to get ahead: hard to access school, training, or better jobs

Debt piling up: rent, utilities, car costs, medical bills, or school

You have to work overtime just to get by

One emergency can ruin everything.

All of these are because of capitalism. Some people get to make all the money, the rest of us struggle.

Exit Strategy From Capitalism:

An 8-Step Road Map

This is a plan everyone fits into. It doesn’t ask you to do anything different from what you are doing now except for coordination among movements.

The transition from capitalism will not happen by accident—it must be organized, rehearsed, and carried out with care. This road map outlines a coordinated process for communities to build new systems of cooperation, resource management, and education while withdrawing labor and power from exploitative structures. Each step strengthens local resilience and global solidarity, guiding society toward an economy built on care, skill, and shared responsibility.

Spreading the Word and Raising Awareness – shaping public understanding, building shared vision, and sparking collective imagination.

Expansion, Preparation, and Rehearsal – organizing teams, resources, and global coordination through local and digital networks. At this point, a new economy is drafted and agreed upon globally.

Mutual Aid Expansion – building parallel systems for care and coordination, including police and military deprogramming and reintegration into community safety roles. At this point a replacement economy is forming.

Mass Refusal – coordinated work slowdown, strikes, and debt and rent strikes as well as coordinated disruption and bottlenecking.

Critical Infrastructure Co-opting – transferring control of critical infrastructure (fuel, communication, mass transportation, utilities, hospitals, etc) to cooperative management. At this time a replacement economy can begin handling large systems. Efforts to establish restorative justice and a new education system happens here.

Product Liberation – reclaiming goods and production for public use. This is done by mutual aid teams who restore products to neighborhood depots.

Shelter in Place Day – the turning point when society pauses and reorganizes locally. Remember flash mobs? At this time a new economy is in full operation. Tentatively July 4th, 2030.

Reinventing Public Education – embedding historical economics and the mechanics of the new economy into the new education system, and spreading this vision to current high school juniors and seniors who will inherit and lead it. At this time, the new economy is passed on to the next generation. This is where capitalism ends for good.

THE REAL PROBLEM

Capitalism is surviving because resistance is scattered and mistimed.

• protests are reactive and short-lived

• strikes happen in isolation

• mutual aid workers burns out

• movements and activists talk past each other

WHY THIS MOMENT MATTERS

For the first time in history information can spread globally in minutes. The internet — email and social media — enables communication and coordination in a way never before seen in human history. What’s missing is alignment and timing.
