| Re: Not a good thing. Capitalism is the only system in which ANYBODY gets rich. Under Socialism or Communism, everybody is poor--though some have more power, and use that to gain some creature comforts.

said by calvoiper :Capitalism is the only system in which ANYBODY gets rich. Unless I misunderstood what you meant, that isn't the case... In feudalism, the landowners get rich... For your statement to be correct, it would have to be - Capitalism is a system in which everyone has a chance to get rich... Of course, everyone can't be rich. -- Support "W" Axial tilt is the reason for the season... Happy Solstice! | |
