At present, the US has near record low unemployment, rising wages, and a very high stock market.
Yet we also have many thousands homeless.
Truly, capitalism is the worst form of government. Except for everything else, which share the downsides and lack the upside. It's why there are tens of thousands pouring over the border monthly-- to get to America and to capitalism. They want to work for their chance.
- timbit42 8y agoCapitalism without limits is worse.
- RickJWagner 8y agoCan you cite an example? Contemporary USA still has lots of people trying to get in, so I'd think it's not a good example. Is there someplace else you're thinking about?
- thewileyone 8y agoIf you look at the South American countries that most migrants to the USA are coming from, they do live in uncontrolled capitalistic economies, regardless of their political systems. The rich there use their money and power to control and grow their influence regardless of the impact to others.
