Is Capitalism Bad?
Said by many, it is very bad. But I find it funny that "those who complain (consumers) are those who go to the shops (capitalists) on the most capitalist day in the world, The Black Friday, complaining about high prices but continue to enjoy and at the same time, lament."[*] And they still wear brand clothes, use private cars, use smartphones and iPhones... All this, which is coming from capitalist production!
Capitalism is good up to a point. It is good for the economy, provides jobs, gives individual wealth freedom and private property[**], in other words, the citizen has the opportunity to create his own fortune by opening a business, thus opening jobs to the middle and lower class and still, as an individual or company, use the products sold by other private industries. This activates the economy and the economy feeds and improves the nation.
If states did not have the least capitalism, people were not free to buy a Coca-Cola® to fresh up or buy a ben-u-ron® to relieve headaches.
Capitalism brings technology, innovation, competition, and happiness. It has been proved that the happiest countries are the most capitalistic because of the freedom of wealth and the life quality which they experience.
However, socialists generally fear capitalism, quite rightly, because its extremism is dangerous and corrupt. In this scenario, the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer and sadder. This sadness brings anger and many begin to lean towards the extreme left wing, which is Communism or Social Anarchism. Bringing the question of revolutions, protests and coups d'état.
Thus, a little bit of socialism is complemented by capitalism in order to bring a balance in which companies are monitored and controlled a little and distribute some wealth to those most in need. Doing this in the light of not being unfair to those who work, strive and study to obtain a better life.
