these distortions in capitalism you mentioned will be corrected eventually by the market. if you provide a poor product or bad service, people will notice that and switch for a substitute. or maybe a competitor would take an advantage of that flaw and compete aggressively in a free market. however the example you gave are the effects of having a monopoly in the market and that's a bad thing. 70-80% of monopolies are created by the government. .
@Life0is0Nothing Monsanta has a monopoly over genetically modified food. News International is a massive news corporation. Most banks and tech businesses are almost always interlinked and have shared ownership.
Most of the wealth is owned by a tiny minority.
Pure capitalism always leads to monopolies, and a lack of regard for the long term damage of their actions
@ItsAudioworm what i wrong with those who do a good job and build a large company like lifeisnothing said build a better product or make it cheaper is the way to thrive ina market economy
@WoodysGamertag I think you are confusing Healthcare with the medical field. Healthcare is the insurance of paying for medical expenses by a corporation that provides that service. What you are talking about are the corporations that actually sell drugs, and most of them don't even sell in the mainstream free market. They sell directly to hospitals and doctors. Nationalized Healthcare isn't free and it has never worked in the history of the world. Sorry.
@brghost23 You may be mistaken. While we complain about the health service, it is fantastic and most people are very willing to defend it.
When I started going blind in one eye, I went to see the ENT department, got transferred to the relevant specialist and had a series of tests to diagnose my problem. When I had a bone infection in my jaw I was rushed into emergency surgery, and treated within 40 minutes of me calling the ambulance.
@brghost23 It even allows people with long term, debilitating diseases to not have to worry about the cost of their treatment. In the UK we run charities to help people with cancer, who then lose their job (due to the illness) pay their food and gas bills. In the US cancer can set you back hundreds and thousands into debt. That is not a good system, it is not a fair system, and it is not a system that any first world country should defend
@ItsAudioworm Health Care is not a right. It is a service that can be provided to you if you so choose to have it. I personally would strongly suggest that everyone who can have some sort of healthcare, as even the most basic plans people can buy cover serious illness.
I believe you may be mistaken about US healthcare. It's provided by businesses in the free market (which allows for competition) and allows choice to get healthcare YOU need not what the government mandates.
@ItsAudioworm If something happens to you, say you get cancer, your health insurance company pays for your treatment (as long as your plan supports it, and something as serious as cancer almost always is). The only way you would fall thousands of dollars in debt like you said is if you chose NOT to purchase any form of healthcare, which is your own fault.
@ItsAudioworm I'm not saying the system in the US is perfect by any means. There are issues with government intervention and free market coordination. The reason so many people oppose Obamacare is because there is no way to pay for it and it's a job that simply doesn't belong to the federal government.
If a state government wants to provide some sort of baseline healthcare for people who can't afford to buy any, fine. They can do that. The federal government, by law, cannot.
@ItsAudioworm It's also worth mentioning that in the UK, your healthcare system is bankrupting your government, if you didn't know that already.
The issue with nationalized healthcare is that it fails to deliver appropriate service to meet individual needs for all people and nobody can actually pay for it.
i agree with woody most of the way. "free healthcare" would be really nice but i just dont think it will happen. its free in Canada, but i think the american government or other corporations might be a little greedy.... by a little i mean really greedy.
The idea of "free healthcare" doesn't exist. Its fairly ignorant to even say that it does. In reality some one else is paying for your healthcare. That being the roughly 50% of Americans who actually pay federal taxes. So its not free, you are just mooching off the people who are actually successful. To support a socialized healthcare system would require massive tax increases, putting a large burden on the rest of our economy. Not to mention the thousands of jobs that would be lost.
Canada has no capatilized healthcare. We are in no economic problems and we have a better medical system than the united states. If you guys wanna bash this idea go ahead, but if you wanna save millions of lives and potentially save your entire family or maybe your best friends family or your brother/sister or anyone you love from going in debt-- free health care is the way to go. I tell you, nothing is more precious than life and it is sad to see a wonderful country like the United States suffe
@TheUnarmed37 Wake up man. Canada is in just as much shit as the rest of the world. And btw one of your province minsters came to the US for healthcare because he couldn't get it with the Nationalized system
fact is wood, there is no other system better than capitalism. take a look at government housing. i don't want my healthcare administered by an agency that will eventually turn in into the abomination that government housing is in. frankly, i don't want government to run any industry. it needs to stick to roads, defense, and space travel etc...
Woody, if a company charges tons of money for a pill, customers will complain and a new company will come along and make a similar pill for a cheaper price, and the companies will compete for customers. In Canada when they implemented subsidized medicine research for new drugs dropped by about 50%, considering the U.S. is one of the biggest researchers for new drugs, what will this do to not only us, but the rest of the world. Look at anywhere they have tried subsidized medicine, it is bankrupt.
If you remember the unsubscribe to fred day thats what were setting up here but were not unsubscribing to woody.Im trying to put together a back to black ops day that will stretch across the youtube communtiy.

There's one thing that you're wrong about; emergency care. Private hospitals can refuse care and they will often check if you have the means to pay. Those accept people who don't have insurance, public & private, just bill the person often without their consent (because they're incapacitated). Then the person is saddled with debt which cripples other parts of their lives (housing/ job prospects, future insurance cost, etc.). Remember the #1 cause for bankruptcy in the US are medical bills.
The U.S. ranks 32 out 34 on the scale of how much money is made through taxes next to Chile and Mexico. The sad thing is though, government agencies, roads, public schools, national parks, water treatment plants, power stations, hospital care, and much more are paid with taxes.
I know America is in a pretty bad economic state, but getting rid of taxes won't solve the problem. Keeping corporations in their place along with a more free healthcare system means we'll be better off in the long run.
there shouldn't be anyone profiting from the firedepartment, police department or the health care system. they should be funded by taxes and should be free off charge.
Woody I'm sorry. I had to turn this off. I really enjoy your commentaries, but truly this is not your best. My knee jerk instinct is to attempt to sway your opinion on certain matters in particular, and at some points correct you, but I realize it is futile, seeing you feel so strongly about this that you would actually talk about capitalism to an audience of mostly teens who watch your videos to escape school, rather then sit through another 8 minutes of it.
Socialism seems to be the most effective system currently. As much as I love Marxism(the utopian society) it doesn't seem to be too effective. If you look at Sweden and Norway, they're one of most economically well of countries in the world. Why? They're Socialist. Americans admire the German economy so much. It's because they have various social programs in place. However, this would never work in America because of the Mcarthy Era. Americans seem to think that Kommunism and Socialism is evil,
The thing is that capitalism, in most situations makes prices cheaper because of competition among companies. It also Forces manufactures to make a higher quality product
capitalism should exist in every aspect of life. while you can support your points, woody, the problem in the world, practically, is that once you allow some socialization of one thing like healthcare, then you start a snowball effect and other aspects will become socialized. trust me, i am confident that i can humbly and boldly say that if a government is small and reserves respected powers to the states, then that same nation can run on capitalism without fail.
if someone is charging you 1 million dollars for a 50 cent pill, then the company next door can sell the same thing but for 500,000, etc... etc... until it gets to reasonable prices. woody you forgot to factor in competition and your assuming a healthcare monopoly which doesnt exist (unless you socialize by the government)
What I believe is that the big boys of today are cloaking their communist agenda as capitalism and with lack of proper infrastructure people are being submitted to just lay their and take it.
Capitalism is a great concept and as Woody said it pretty much catapulted us and advanced us in huge leaps and bounds never seen before on this planet. But today a mutant form of Capitalism has evolved and instead of advancing us a race it's only increasing the size of (a select few) wallets. Centralization of these companies and having certain people control these vast monopolies is giving too much power to specific people.
@JonathanMcEvoy888 monopolization only occurs when the government restricts small businesses with taxes that they cant afford, but the big businesses can afford the taxes that hurt entrepeneaurs
@ace4458 Yeah man totally agree with you on that, but big business' kinda have a strangle hold on government to an extent. Great to hear good logical answers and opinions being expressed unlike the narrow minded abuse you sometimes throw your way cause of the ideas one has :L A good guy to look up would be George Carlin if you haven't heard of him. Also various street artists like Banksy and BLU are other people trying to tell the world what's going on.
@Cooler180 well no its is NOT because there is universal healthcare that it sucks to live there. The leaders of the countries have everything to do with it. I can name at least 5 countries that have universal healtcare where it certainly not suck to live. So mr Troll STFU
@yoimosan First of all, I don't like his personality. All grown up and talking to his subscribers as there all were 10 year olds. Preaching. It's creepy, and extremely annoying. And just the way he is, his laugh, his face. It's just that feeling you get when you really hate a guy, just by the way he looks. I wanna punch him right in the face, right in that crooked nose! Awwwhh, that would be nice. Remember, he's that guy who wears socks in his sandals, punch-worthy right there...
so your government passes the NDAA bill and you think you live in a capitalist society?but thats ok..hitler and stalin had similar bills under fascism and communism, millions of innocent civilians died under their tyranny...good luck americans under your new bill and your supposed "capitalist" state.
I think most of Europe has it right, we sort off use capitalism but getting sick or laid off isn't the end of the word. In Belgium for example when you pay high taxes but whenever you get sick you get taken care off no questions or money asked. When you get laid off get get a small fee to live.
But capitalism is needed so people can set goals, if the state provides to much there is to much incentive to lay back and profit on the back of the others
I couldn't agree with you more Woody. If I were to highlight only one fault with America, this would be it. No country is perfect, but having the human decency to help your fellow man instead of focusing on profit is the right thing to do.
Woody, the odds of going into tertiary syphilis (the dementia one you were describing) is VERY rare. Most people stop in the latent stage after their secondary syphilis.
Hey guys my name is Ethan and i'm 17, i'm a small Youtuber and i upload Regular fast paced MOAB's and my commentaries are usually on the comedic side, i play with subs everyday and reply to all comments, id really appreciate some feedback and maybe a sub :)
Actually this seems like a pretty cool thing to keep doing. However, I would caution woody not to get into REALLY deep stuff, like religion, abortion, etc.
Universal Healthcare = Unconstitutional. That is all. Let the private sector determine what the people need, not the government. They have no right to invade in people's personal liberty, plus the government has no money and no balanced budget.
@xxguitarhero48xx The constitution also said black people were 3/5 of a person. Just because something is "unconstitutional" doesn't make it good or bad. Health care corporations often exploit people to make more money. Ex. Make one pill that cures aids or make pills that people have to take once a day.
Just don't get into politics woody, just don't, its too divisive. There's no right or wrong answer so you're just getting people mad at you, people who may feel strongly about an issue. Just a suggestion you can do what you want, its your channel.
@TheDukeofFrance I know, i was saying that i get special treatment for being a minority and that is wrong. I am part Mexican, but if you look at me you would think that i'm white, so i only get special minority benefits when i fill out a form and say that I am. it is awful that we tried to remedy racism towards minorities with racism towards whites, and if a white person says that's wrong, he is labeled an ignorant racist.
Hey guys my name is Ethan and im a small youtuber, i upload Regular fast paced MOABS aswell as high scoring gameplay, i play with subs everyday and reply to all comments, id really appreciate some feedback and maybe a sub :)
Hello Everyone, I'm a small time commentator on youtube who puts out good content (Montages, tips & tricks, gameplays etc) but struggles to get noticed and barely has any subscribers. If you have some time and can check out my channel and content and subscribe if you like what i do i would be grateful. Thank you for your help.
@WoodysGamertag You are very cynical of peoples' morals. I believe what you are saying goes on in other industries but not so much in the medical field. If the cure for AIDS was out there, I believe it would have been found by now. If you were a medical engineer capable of preventing millions of people from dying world wide, wouldn't you want to do that? Not only for the humane aspect of it but with a discovery of that magnitude, fame and riches would come with it...On the other hand, I do...
@2010warped ...believe there is that sort of corruption in the auto/oil industry for example. I believe that we are capable of replacing oil as our main source of energy but that would throw the entire economy of the world off kilter. So for better or for worse, we continue to use oil. I like the idea of the video, Woody, but I think you are picking on the wrong industry.
@2010warped The problem is not just about energy. Sure we may be able to taper off oil and use more renewable and less harmful resources but oil does so much more. If you do more research you will find that oil is used to make plastics and other materials. So that means everything you own with plastic parts such as your computer, TV, etc. wouldn't be possible without oil, unfortunately.
@2010warped Sorry to rip on what have written but again you are missing part of the picture. Search up more on Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) in the medical industry and you will find that pharmaceutical companies knowingly prescribed harmful drugs to women purely for financial gain even though it was proven to cause cancer and raise chances of miscarriages. For AIDS morally you are right but if they can sell you daily shots for life instead of a one shot cure, they make billions
@nrshaffer21 Freedom is great. FREEDOM tho is many times used as a catchphrase tho used to elicit a specific response. Who would argue against freedom? So just so we are on the same page...so please tell me what you beleive a Free market is. THEN please explain to me Enron, Bernie Madoff, Phar-mor, hell even sony rootkits. Then please define collusion and price fixing. Then explain how corps have buyers best interestes at heart. THEN please give me a definition of a free market again. thx
@bromyne things for the consumer. For example, one company sells products for a ridiculous amount of money because they are the only company that offers that service. Another company wants some of that market share, and sells the same or better quality product, or tries to sell the product for less, or both. Consumers get lower prices and better products with competition, while good companies benefit from more profits. Not really rocket science
@nrshaffer21 Ur defs are naive at best. U need to do a lil more research instead of just reading the top line on wiki The 3 ex. i gave you showed how greed can lead to deception when there is little or no regulation. Its sad to me that the only thing you think Enron did was hid debt from its investors. plz read a little more, k? BTW, ur last def is correct YAY... in theory. U above defined 2 (of many) ways that co.s can abuse a free market. And gave 3 examples of when they did. take care.
I get your concepts you were explaining, but I would much rather leave the Healthcare System privatized that have the government try and take it over. Everything that the Gov't puts their hands on becomes a mess, and there is no competition to drive companies to make a better product or service when it's just one organization that runs the whole show.
Capitalism is the best system we have now. Unfortunately, we are starting to see the weaknesses of it, just like democracy.
I strongly believe our country is going to have major changes in the next 10 years. Some of them linked to capitalism, and some linked to our political system.
Woody, In terms of healthcare i think that the problem with not taking a capitalist approach to pharmaceutical's is that we need the competition that these companies have between each other in order for them to develop new drugs. Equally due to the huge upsides from finding the next wonder drug it means that the amount of money pumped into r and d is massive and something that a socialist approach would not allow.
Woody, could you explain the security problem with capitalism more in depth, I didn't follow what you were trying to say. Also, we all know that government is one of the most inefficient forms of organization on the planet (I have several relatives who work in or with the government). Socialism would bog down the system even more with debate. I think we need to pass more regulation on these new sectors of business that the law hasn't caught up with yet. Another example of this is the internet.
@KKSphyscotid I don't want to call you stupid but I have no other choice. First of all the "immigrants" you are talking about are also your ancestors, unless you are a Native American you shouldn't be talking about legal immigrants. You have to understand that a capitalism in itself doesn't work, communism in itself doesn't work, the US is a socialist country. Welfare is a form of socialism because it gives people with less opportunities a chance to survive.
@DynamicoS21 You lost me when you said capitalism doesn't work,and when you said that the US is socialist.If capitalism doesn't work, then explain how the US went from being 13 colonies to one of the most powerful countries on earth in the span of two hundred years (I'm not talking about present day).Do you even know what socialism means?Sure there are some things from socialism present in american society, but that doesn't make the US socialist.Maybe you should look up a word before you use it.
@bobert577 I know what socialism is, you don't have to explain anything to me. The U.S. is a socialist state no matter what you think it is. Welfare is socialist, food stamps socialist, social security is socialist. Socialism is a mixture of capitalism and communism, each one by itself doesn't work. BTW capitalism worked for America but has it worked for the 170 plus countries that are poor? I don't think so buddy, I don't swallow the propaganda pill that started in the 1950s, this is 2012...
@DynamicoS21Okay, maybe I did swallow the pill from the 50's telling me that something isn't what it is.Why would the government be so anti socialist, is it the leftovers of the anti-red scares of the 50's?I agree with you that the things you mentioned are "socialist", but they don't make up the whole US government and economy, so you can't call them socialist.That's like saying my favorite color is red if I wear socks with red stripes.(Sorry for the bad analogy)I wanna hear what you think
Woody you are wrong, what improved the world during the last 2 hundred years was technology not capitalism, you are confusing them. Technology brought on the industrial revolution which in turn produced more wealth for the rest of the world whether it would be in a communist or capitalist system.
@DynamicoS21 If you know about the history of Russia during the industrial revolution, you know that they didn't use technology efficiently because of the communist system, and ended up wasting materials and killing lots of people of starvation. I'm not trying to be anti communist, it's just what happened. The same thing happened in china at a certain point.
i think welfare is the dummest thing. why do hard working americans have to pay for immigrants that steal our jobs and what not, also why do they get more money for more kids, their poor and cant fend for themsleves why should they "torture" more kids?
@KKSphyscotid Except that most immigrants (illegal or not) usually take jobs that we won't do anyway. And America is a land of many cultures, and the only way to get more cultures is to have immigrants. And there are people who genuinely need help, or need help getting back on their feet.
@rpglover101 These jobs would have been done by us in the past, it is because of the stereotypes that have now been associated with them, therefore 'lowering' this band of jobs in the public eye because immigrants happily take them to earn some money. There is nothing wrong with this, I have a problem with immigrants sending the money the earn home to their native countries.
I'm sorry, but those thoughts isn't deep. That's something that has been know for ages. The thing is, that those who are actually able to do something about it, are those who benefit the most from the current system. Which motivates them not to.
I find it depressing that you want to make a point, and find that the healthcare system is the example you choose. What about all those millions and millions of people outside the USA (and EU) that has suffered through time and still does? Nobody cares
@MrDrugdealer19 Ok, so on a the theme of being an over generalizing asshole, all democrats are dirty, jobless, pothead hippys. Don't generalize. You look like a fucking idiot.
Another fallback of capitalism is that the government does't side with the people anymore. They ask the ones who own giant corporations to see what they would want. It's a lll about who makes the most money. We exploit the workers of our country and of others. Companies want huge profits and outsource their factories and other kinds of work that an American citizen can get $20-35 a day to someone in another country who make $2 a week. This also affects the job situation in the USA.
@TheMightySkippy Oh okay I assumed people were talking about more fundamental problems rather than being on a waiting list. I'm sure the surgery in America isn't instantaneous.
woody, what about the 3 billion dollars it took to develop the drug? They need to make that money back. I think they should be able to charge what they want. My sister had leukemia, so I understand the health care thing, and I don't think it's unfair.
@xGuns0fHonorX1 This a reply about how 'USSR really was a solution not'. It's hard to achieve a goal (communsim) when over 75% of the world disagrees and wants to kill you. The USSR's industry was mostly internal going along with Stalin's 'communism in one nation theory'. As with North Korea today little trading is done as the US restricts imports to North Korea. How can you call communsim a joke when it has never be seen in action (also it was created by germans).
@TehRussianAssassin First off it has been tried by numerous governments China, Cuba, Venezuela. okay and Cuba and Venezuela are a lost cause China is the only one standing and only because of one thing Capitalism the US made china rise to where it is now before they were rich they were damn near broke and that meant US companies could go there for free basically and make cheap labor so that intern made China what it is so US and capitalism made China big.
@xGuns0fHonorX1 Honestly China is just a harsh capitalist government. I doubt by any means do they intend to achieve communsim. With little rights that the workers have and the sheer population of the nation, if you get a job, no matter how poorly paying, you're still doing well for yourself.
@xGuns0fHonorX1 Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx theorized communsim. You are write about Hitler's hate against commmunism and how he promised to eradicate it or something of the sort.
Capitalism is only good when it is diluted with well thought out regulation and socialism to gurantee that the social welfare is maintained. Remember... we're all in this together, and with out social initiatives to help protect society, we could all die of an easily preventable disease that would have otherwise been under control with the proper structure in place. People love to put capitalism on a high horse... but where are we now thanks to the banks and deregulation of them?
There are plenty of potential problems with social medicine as well. Waiting for treatments, doctors are paid less so the brilliant potential doctors pursue other careers, wiping out thousands of healthcare and insurance jobs off the earth. Yes the stuff you mentioned can happen, understand they are hyperboles and are worst case scenarios. Good video, it's always good to analyze different options.
want to see what capitalism boils down to simply and elegantly? watch the Wire (an HBO TV Show from a few years ago) ... also deep thoughts are often less deep when you call them that.
which would mead an entirly goverment monitered life, the opposite of now. the reason this would happen is political partys. people vote for or against a bill if their party supports it, regardless of what it seems to say, so eventually this would mean that the brainwashed public will go with (their party) either a capitalist or the opposite, and logic and no depth of thought would lead them to the opp.
FINALLY! SOMONE AGREES WITH ME ABOUT THAT FINAAL STAND THING!. So many times i will put i guy into final stand then die, then my teammate kills him.... it sucks
first off, this is all theoretical) healthcare is a (usually ->) profitable service, its profit is also directly affected by the consumer which doesn't provide a highly relaiable resource which would all be changed if the goverment owned it, good right? well if they compounded that with a more reliable income like security that would be a good idea, only that controling 2 directly related subjects would lead to more controle of goverment in said area leading to more hunger for controle, not good
@IvainoI but the face is some people dont deserve it so therefore i want those extra dollars to put towards my own kids health or an extra christmas present
capitalism and socialism both have flaws, but capitalism has the worst flaws, because of corruption and greed, thats why are economy is sunk to shit, because of corporations, take the extreme to everything, squeezing the 99% while the 1% are sittting fat and happy with lower taxes
@live2graff88 All economists agree that the housing crisis happened for multiple reasons. Only one of those is "greedy corporations" while the rest are the fault of our government.
Also, do you really think socialism is less corrupt than capitalism? Do you think there is less income disparity in those countries? Most of them don't even have a middle class. The 99% in those countries are dirt ass poor. You're asking for the worst version of what you despise and you don't even know it.
@bromyne its not worth arguing with a person a ignorant you READ THE DAMN CONSTITUTION look at a HISTORY BOOK and hopefully you see that Liberals are idiots republicans are just as bad NO ONE listen to the constitution or looks at history to argue policy i dont like any party really i believe in the founding and what they said they fought the world power and won they laid a government not used for 2k yrs and it work communism is 100 yrs old and everyone has failed one is alive but only by the US
@AJwin1 a single mother can get welfare like they do now but they also cant live on it for 2 or more yrs like a lot do you have to prove that you are actively trying to get off if you cant no welfare and if your child cant be supported child services pick him up period.
and i will tell you right now im greedy and so are you ex when you sell a house by a car you try to bargain which is being greedy when you try to haggle the price so your greedy but i care for others that i know and trust so on
/watch?v=biHoLtytcME check it out its a new series on my channel called what will happen next, i know its lame to advertise on other ppl channel but its kinda hard to get views and i just want feedback im not saying sub thats up to you thanks for you time.

ClearlyJesus 3 weeks ago in playlist More videos from WoodysGamertag
Canada has no capatilized healthcare. We are in no economic problems and we have a better medical system than the united states. If you guys wanna bash this idea go ahead, but if you wanna save millions of lives and potentially save your entire family or maybe your best friends family or your brother/sister or anyone you love from going in debt-- free health care is the way to go. I tell you, nothing is more precious than life and it is sad to see a wonderful country like the United States suffe

Woody, if a company charges tons of money for a pill, customers will complain and a new company will come along and make a similar pill for a cheaper price, and the companies will compete for customers. In Canada when they implemented subsidized medicine research for new drugs dropped by about 50%, considering the U.S. is one of the biggest researchers for new drugs, what will this do to not only us, but the rest of the world. Look at anywhere they have tried subsidized medicine, it is bankrupt.

There's one thing that you're wrong about; emergency care. Private hospitals can refuse care and they will often check if you have the means to pay. Those accept people who don't have insurance, public & private, just bill the person often without their consent (because they're incapacitated). Then the person is saddled with debt which cripples other parts of their lives (housing/ job prospects, future insurance cost, etc.). Remember the #1 cause for bankruptcy in the US are medical bills.

The U.S. ranks 32 out 34 on the scale of how much money is made through taxes next to Chile and Mexico. The sad thing is though, government agencies, roads, public schools, national parks, water treatment plants, power stations, hospital care, and much more are paid with taxes.
I know America is in a pretty bad economic state, but getting rid of taxes won't solve the problem. Keeping corporations in their place along with a more free healthcare system means we'll be better off in the long run.

My knee jerk instinct is to attempt to sway your opinion on certain matters in particular, and at some points correct you, but I realize it is futile, seeing you feel so strongly about this that you would actually talk about capitalism to an audience of mostly teens who watch your videos to escape school, rather then sit through another 8 minutes of it.

Socialism seems to be the most effective system currently. As much as I love Marxism(the utopian society) it doesn't seem to be too effective. If you look at Sweden and Norway, they're one of most economically well of countries in the world. Why? They're Socialist. Americans admire the German economy so much. It's because they have various social programs in place. However, this would never work in America because of the Mcarthy Era. Americans seem to think that Kommunism and Socialism is evil,

capitalism should exist in every aspect of life. while you can support your points, woody, the problem in the world, practically, is that once you allow some socialization of one thing like healthcare, then you start a snowball effect and other aspects will become socialized. trust me, i am confident that i can humbly and boldly say that if a government is small and reserves respected powers to the states, then that same nation can run on capitalism without fail.

if someone is charging you 1 million dollars for a 50 cent pill, then the company next door can sell the same thing but for 500,000, etc... etc... until it gets to reasonable prices. woody you forgot to factor in competition and your assuming a healthcare monopoly which doesnt exist (unless you socialize by the government)

Capitalism is a great concept and as Woody said it pretty much catapulted us and advanced us in huge leaps and bounds never seen before on this planet. But today a mutant form of Capitalism has evolved and instead of advancing us a race it's only increasing the size of (a select few) wallets. Centralization of these companies and having certain people control these vast monopolies is giving too much power to specific people.

I think most of Europe has it right, we sort off use capitalism but getting sick or laid off isn't the end of the word. In Belgium for example when you pay high taxes but whenever you get sick you get taken care off no questions or money asked. When you get laid off get get a small fee to live.
But capitalism is needed so people can set goals, if the state provides to much there is to much incentive to lay back and profit on the back of the others

@bromyne things for the consumer. For example, one company sells products for a ridiculous amount of money because they are the only company that offers that service. Another company wants some of that market share, and sells the same or better quality product, or tries to sell the product for less, or both. Consumers get lower prices and better products with competition, while good companies benefit from more profits. Not really rocket science

Woody, In terms of healthcare i think that the problem with not taking a capitalist approach to pharmaceutical's is that we need the competition that these companies have between each other in order for them to develop new drugs. Equally due to the huge upsides from finding the next wonder drug it means that the amount of money pumped into r and d is massive and something that a socialist approach would not allow.

Woody, could you explain the security problem with capitalism more in depth, I didn't follow what you were trying to say. Also, we all know that government is one of the most inefficient forms of organization on the planet (I have several relatives who work in or with the government). Socialism would bog down the system even more with debate. I think we need to pass more regulation on these new sectors of business that the law hasn't caught up with yet. Another example of this is the internet.

Another fallback of capitalism is that the government does't side with the people anymore. They ask the ones who own giant corporations to see what they would want. It's a lll about who makes the most money. We exploit the workers of our country and of others. Companies want huge profits and outsource their factories and other kinds of work that an American citizen can get $20-35 a day to someone in another country who make $2 a week.

first off, this is all theoretical) healthcare is a (usually ->) profitable service, its profit is also directly affected by the consumer which doesn't provide a highly relaiable resource which would all be changed if the goverment owned it, good right? well if they compounded that with a more reliable income like security that would be a good idea, only that controling 2 directly related subjects would lead to more controle of goverment in said area leading to more hunger for controle, not good

capitalism and socialism both have flaws, but capitalism has the worst flaws, because of corruption and greed, thats why are economy is sunk to shit, because of corporations, take the extreme to everything, squeezing the 99% while the 1% are sittting fat and happy with lower taxes

@live2graff88 All economists agree that the housing crisis happened for multiple reasons. Only one of those is "greedy corporations" while the rest are the fault of our government.
Also, do you really think socialism is less corrupt than capitalism? Do you think there is less income disparity in those countries? Most of them don't even have a middle class. The 99% in those countries are dirt ass poor. You're asking for the worst version of what you despise and you don't even know it.

@AJwin1 a single mother can get welfare like they do now but they also cant live on it for 2 or more yrs like a lot do you have to prove that you are actively trying to get off if you cant no welfare and if your child cant be supported child services pick him up period.

@xGuns0fHonorX1 I couldn't understand the grammar that well. I "think" you were trying to say we're both greedy so I won't argue there ;)
