@SW-User Those figures are way off. There's a lot of misinformation in the US. It's one sick puppy

@Psychoticenlightment I understand that but read the book "rules for radicals" by Saul Alinsky it explains health care for profit versus government health care

@SW-User You should really read some Marxists.

Africa. Hondoras. Well, most of South America. Mostly capitalist. Rome, Greece, Mexico. All pretty bad problems, with capitalism. Capitalism has failed them.

Denmark is an example of a great capitalist/socialist balance. At least, for now. But. Capitalism only works while the means of production are being grabbed. Once conglomorates and monopolies are formed, they influence government, corrupt government, and consume until they destroy the country. Ancient Rome is a good example of this, though it fell to a variety of factors, economic corruption was a good part of it.

Sweden is an example of pure socialism which works.

Capitalism is stable. For awhile. So long as you take from the poor. E.g., these 3rd world countries which are rich in natural resources, but dirt poor. Those Chinese kids in sweat shops that you were talking about, right.

But, it all ends in Ancient Rome, as the wealthy consume more and more until there is nothing left.

Not just flaws. Fatal flaws.

Its my belief that people naturally want to cooperate with one another. Capitalism serves as a system which enforces greed and individualism, marring our nature. How we were before large cities and countries. Tribal humans were quite peaceful; everyone cooperated. We can make a new system which bolsters *that* nature, rather than dog-eat-dog, every-man-for-himself transmogrification of capitalism. It's quite possible. The Venus Project is the best idea I've found. A society built upon human growth and efficiency, rather than some meaningless numbers, infinite consumption, and planned obsolescence.
