hoorah!
Yeah, capitalism is selfish, but so am I. It is for the strong. For those who truely try. It makes sure that those slackers in life stay where they belong... at the bottom.

Totally
I dig it even though in a perfect world we wouldn't need it. A perfect world, unfortunately, is not achievable. Self-interest helps the world go round and capitalism ensures competition which ensures survival of a species.

Capitalism is what makes america GREAT. Those who work hard are rewarded and those who are lazy stay in the exact same spot. My dad grew up with nothing and has now become a successful business man. You know how he did that? Hard work! And lots of it! Damn! If you all love socialism so much- move to europe!

In my Euro class, I was called the "Heart of Stone" Capitalist. =D

Government should know when to mind their business!
I really like the idea of capitalism because businesses everywhere either in United States or other countries have their business controlled by private power. Government and congress have no choice to not meddle where they do not belong because hardworking people have rights just as anyone as long as they follow the rules legally then there will be no trouble with the government also as long as they pay their taxes and try to cheat or be dishonest then kudos to them.

I'm a material girl! I suppose I will be on the other side if I don't have access to money and lving on tight budgets, especially after I graduate and going to college, which is in a year's time.

Worked rather well for this country so far.
Um, George Bush has nothing to do with the concept of capitalism. I mean, you could argue that he's ruining our economy and that has to do with capitalism, but... seriously, find a dig/dis board for Bush or go to a shoutout or something if you want to have a Bush-bashing session. This is not the place to do it. Capitalism isn't perfect, and it hads quite a few flaws. But I haven't seen any practical, better alternatives. This isn't altogether that bad; it works pretty well.

alphacentauri, go back to english class and work on those reading comprehension skills. ozgirl makes perfect sense. capitalism is our economy. bush is the president of our political system. iraqi prisoners have nothing to do with it. i agree with ozgirl.

YUMMMM, OK?
I think captilizm is yummy. Its healthy and nutritious! Try it!

considering the alternatives I think capitalism is the best option we have. No country has a perfect economy, as no perfect economy really exists, but I would rather be capitalist than anything else.

capitalism is the best option
would you rather be communist? capitalism is great because it allows people to live how they want with freedom. and also, since this seems to have become a debate on bush, i would like to say that he was fantastic!!

Good Idea
Capitalism is a very good idea when it comes to corperal america.. Opposed to socialism, Capitalism is where every man is for himself. People who work hard get far and those who don't, simply don't. It's the fairest way to run things and we've been doing it in america and we're doing fine

addition to my post
HEY EVERYONE!
Capitalism does not equal Bush! No one seems to get that!! Yes, Bush does run a capitalist country, but so as EVERY OTHER AMERICAN PRESIDENT!!!!!! I am not a fan of Bush, but I am a fan for the United States. And YES there are some flaws to capitalism, but there are even more flaws in COMMUNISM. Be realistic! Communism has NEVER worked. It is too hard to create a system where everyone is equal, because SOMEONE will always want power and money! Sorry! It doesn't work! Capitalism, although flawed, is THE ONLY WAY TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In capitalism, the way to get rich is not by working hard. It is by getting others to work hard for you and gaining a powerful title through this. For the most part I disagree with capitalism, but for a large country I think it's the easiest way to please the citizens.

Commie Pride!
I definitely prefer command economies to capitalism. It's a government's job to look out for its people. It should ensure that everyone gets a wage that they are able to live off, and that everyone has an equal share in the wealth of a nation. You say without capitalism there's no incentive to work? The hardest workers in the world are the people in the factories who toil all day and all night and go home with virtually nothing. Meanwhile, Paris Hilton doesn't have to lift a finger to do anything, and she access to all the clothes anyone could ever want! Does that make any sense to you? Capitalism may work in theory, but in real life it's isn't fair. We've never tried a command economy as a democracy yet - why not?

Socialism
Capitalism doesn't work. And neither does communism. That's why you take the best of both worlds and come support socialism.

I'm extremely against capitalism. Let's just put money and the commercial world aside for one second and think about people. Under communism, everyone would get an equal pay and an equal everything. Poverty will be taken off the streets and people wouldn't even have to worry about religion. It's a shame that most people have this mentality that communism is horrible and causes civil war within countries, and is basically an anti-democractic system. Do you know how much of an impact communism would have on the environment and the inhabitants of this world? Ladies, I would say a lot.

Capitalism = Screw the Unfortunate
Capitalism keeps the rich man rich and the leaves little chance for poor people to survive. In this world, capitalism takes advantage of those who cannot make it by putting them in sweat shops to make unfair wages for a massive profit of the free market. For all the narrow minded or naive people who think capitalisn give people a fair chance to become wealthy, it doesn't. If you cannot afford to go to college or afford health insurance, capitalism says it is your fault. Sometimes people work very hard to afford these things and still cannot make it. Talk about being lazy... working a 60 hour week to make just enough to survive. Do you call that lazy? I don't. Capitalism is keeps 97% of all people in the U.S working hard to make it while the 3% take advantage of you. Talk about equality. capitalism is the opposite of that.
