@1bazman Though many (especially on the left) blame capitalism for so much of today's problems. But I believe what they are incorrectly calling capitalism, is actually what I call 'corporatism'. Many of my fellow libertarians call it 'crony capitalism', but I think that muddy's the issue by using the word 'capitalism' in a different context. Corporatism has more in common with statism/socialism than the free market. In fact, I think corporatism is ANTI the free market.

History has proven it again and again:No system of government is a good one once the goverment grows too big and powerful. If the goverment is small and unintrusive, the form of goverment does not matter that much.

@gamefreak1000000 That last sentence gave away the strength of your argument, which is very weak. Your father is a major so he wouls know... ridiculous and it shows how young and naive you still are. The Netherlands for example has had a social system for centuries, and has been since that a wealthy nation and always been one of the richest in the world. I´m advising you to learn how to think yourself and not just believe anyone by the word..

has anything to do with this...how does being a major make him an economist?

@1bazman The reason why the U.S is going under is because liberals keep wastefully spending money and making businesses go under. They want a Socialist system like Europe, and they are currently in control of our country, which means that we are going under fast. Sweden is Socialist, so it's fail. It won't be successful for very long and if the government gets money from the rich, they only grow bigger and more powerful, resulting in communism. My dad is a major, so he knows his stuff.

@gamefreak1000000 Thirdly, I'm assuming from your arrogance that you're an American. If capitalism is so successful, why is the US technically bankrupt? I am no socialist, but I do believe in fiscal responsibility and as a nation you are failing in that. My last point is that you obviously do not know economics, because it does not always fail. I'll cite Sweden as an example. Every society needs a sense of 'fair play'...a 'give your neighbour a hand' mentality if you will....
@gamefreak1000000 Sweden is not failing...it has a high tax regime to pay for social care, but it's definitely not failing. The reason the US is going under is not because of any socialist agenda - it can't be...most of the debt was run up during the Bush presidency. Hardly someone with socialist leanings. My own politics are right of centre, but I would much rather live in a socially just society than an "I'm all right jack" society that you favour. And I'm lost on why your dad being a major

the rich i talk about are multi billionaires and bankers who hate socialism but beg the state for multi billion dollar bailouts when they fuck up then the next year they are talking millions in bonuses, whilst everyone else is jobless.
a poor person cant even get medical help in america the richest nation on earth but can in some of the poorest, yet they give tax breaks to the 0.1% richest.
welfare is only a tiny percentage in tax and america spends so much on military.
educate yourself
