I just want to say this about capitalism and economic systems..

People confuse economic system with government system. When Americans think of Communism, they think of an evil dictator that ruins everyone's lives. This is not true about communism as a whole. They are thinking of Totalitarianism, a government system where one person has total power.

Yes, Communism and Dictatorships work well with one another, but a Democratic Communism is possible, but no one has taken the time to think about why capitalism is bad.

Capitalism is a flawed system:

- Market prices are determined by a few guys is corporate offices
- Rich get richer, the poor get poorer
- Greed runs rampant
- Companies ruin the quality of food and other goods because the new method is cheaper to make.
- Job quality is determined by salary (ex. Get treated by a doctor not making as much money as the others, you get killed, basically.)
- Education is impossible (or near) for the poor, no hope of poverty-stricken families to advance.
- Healthcare is almost impossible to afford and is flawed (Due to companies caring more about profit than the quality of life)

The list goes on. But the reason America bashed communism, and even went to war with it, is because Communism & Socialism are better economic systems. They must show the American people & try to show the world that capitalism works. It doesn't.

Why is Communism/Socialism better? Because the greed is controlled. If a company wants to stay in business, they must make their products better. Not necessarily cheaper, but better. The government controls Healthcare, Education, Emergency Services, Infrastructure, and many high-priority industries. Communism takes it a step farther and only does not moderate small farmer's markets. Everything else is controlled and made available to everyone equally.

The misconception people have in their minds is that capitalism stands for freedom. It doesn't. Capitalism DOES mean that you can start your own business from nothing, and have little or no intervention from the government. However, Socialism allows small businesses to run just as freely! Also, Communism has subsystems that allow Small businesses to run with little or no moderation.

Bottom line is that Capitalism IS a flawed system, and it will be one of the main reasons America will end up like Rome. Fallen.
