Has capitalism proven to be the superior system?

[Teutone]

Yea, Capitalism is definitely the best economic system...at creating vast inequality.

Mixed economies historically and currently are the most successful in terms of prosperity and quality of life for citizens.

99% of the people in poverty are to blame for their own economic situation.

survival of the fittest is the most fair system, its closest to nature.

Also it leads to better results in terms of innovation and development since competition thrives to greatnes.

[Teutone]

This is exactly what works best in real life and what most creative and/or hardworking people would want. Sadly some countries will be stuck with various forms of overemphasized focus on socialism and related regimes, paving the path for corruption.

Alot, without a big goverment that is worth to influence by private companies to their favour, we would really have a free market and capitalism.

what happens to those who fail in the capitalist system? the answer to that question is the most fundamental reason why the system you have just advocated for is regressive and morally bankrupt.

A social safety net would ensure that said individuals would not starve to death, die from lack of healthcare, or be homeless.

How is it my problem if anybody fails in the system? Wrong lifestyle choices lead to it, what matters is to get up again.

I support that a system should provide equal opportunity in terms of education and basic living standarts, especially for children.

But if you dont use the opportunities, its your fault.

I have people I grew up with starting a business, the risk they take, the dedication, the stress and the mindest makes me respect them alot and they deserve everything they got. In Germany people rather hate on rich people and people in general that get stuff done, really toxic society.

I think its a general mainland Europe thing, thats why we cant compete with East Asia and the Anglo world in the future.

Huge government apparatus in information age is simply unacceptable. I'm not advocating to cut the costs for parliament or removing of democracy. On the contrary. What I want to is say by cutting the government expenses you still have to keep some mean of basic social help to keep the people away from starvation, homelessness or lack of education, heck even USA - as a most capitalistic country - has a dose that, but leeching on the others people hard working by getting various legal scam in the forms of social benefits or going step further with tax fraud/evasion is something which shouldn't be tolerated and its detection is so damn easy today that even a well trained computer software could find gaps in someone's balance sheet. That being said, not having this money invested in government online services (I believe 99% of government services should be available online) is unacceptable, especially for developed countries in Europe.

Blah blah inequality, blah blah blah dick measuring the biggest losers against the most productive.

Couldnt care less about tax evasion/fraud

I envy and respect people that do it without getting caught, outstanding intelligent individuals.

Capitalism's real "achievement" lies in getting socialists elected to parliament because people will no tolerate the abuses from the bosses. No, the mixed model is best. Capitalism's other achievement is in destroying (in under 5 years) what had taken 15 years to rebuild after the war: the West's entire industrial base. They shipped it all to China leaving destruction in their wake.

[Daos777]

This only makes sense if youre as dumb as me but,

Capitalism is the shit. As a white women you can take three 12 inch bbcs in the ass and then go back to making more than the blue collar white beta male faggot. What other system would possibly allow for such freedom? Do you understand retard? Non aggression principle and economic productivity is the only reason for existence.

The ones who fail in the capitalist system live with better quality of life than the middle class in a comunist country
