Name a better system?Capitalism may be one of the best systems around but it does have its flaws. When one union gets a raise, it triggers a round of inflation that just causes other workers to need raises to keep up with the rising cost of living. The bottom line of the paycheck goes up, but the standard of living doesn't. The common argument is that the workers should be given a bigger percentage of the profits. That sounds good, but it never really happens. The employer just raises the price their goods, and the consumer (the other workers) pay for it. The company owners don't take a hit, in fact they usually raise their prices more than needed so they get even a bigger percentage of the profits. The gap between rich and poor grows and the standard of living actually decreases.
So you guys can go on debating this all you want. The truth is that the whole system is seriously flawed. I don't pretend to have an answer, but I get tired of hearing how "perfect" capitalism is.
I don't think anyone ever said capitalism was perfect. As the old cliché goes:...So you guys can go on debating this all you want. The truth is that the whole system is seriously flawed. I don't pretend to have an answer, but I get tired of hearing how "perfect" capitalism is.
"It's like a campaign slogan from a while back, worst one ever for America because it's the idea that someone else (union, government, whatever) is going to fix your problems. They aren't and in most cases even if they fix yours they've made it worse for countless others. Don't "hope", get out there and find your goal then get after it."Hope in one hand s**t in the other, which one fills up faster? Hope is not a method, hard work with a defined goal will give amazing results every time in this nation...for now.

Capitalism sucks, it just happens to suck less than every other system there is.
