There has never been a system ever invented, that promotes the well being of all the citizens. Any socialist society eventually ends in poverty and inequality to the people/citizens of the country. In over 2,000 years of man kind, you won't find a more prosperous society than you find with countries that employ capitalism in it's society.

What is amazing, is smart people...I mean educated and intellectually qualified to weigh facts, still consider socialism a good idea? How stupid are you if you think that is a great equalizer? Communism goes along with the motivation of state ran "corporations" for the "working class", but study this and see how that worked out? Want to live in poverty? Let socialism and/or communism under the guise of "fairness and equality", and you won't be long in lowering the standards of living.

The truth of the matter is - capitalism provides the highest standards of living. Hands down. If you are too stupid to believe it, please move to your utopian country of Venezuela or Cuba please...I really wish you would and do it NOW please! What is so ridiculous, it the thought that government provides equality, therefore everyone will prosper and have equal compensation. Ever heard of corruption? Everyone who has ever thought about money wants more of it, no? That being the case, lets cut some deals to the privileged and let the masses fend for themselves. This happens 100% of the time and you are naive if you don't buy into that. Capitalism gets around this by the entrepreneur who can provide a better product/service at a better value price!

So lets ask the question - why does capitalism work so well? It allows for innovation. Necessity is the mother of invention, and if you take a look at technology, whether it is aircraft, the personal computer, smart phones, and medical technology - NOT ONE OF THESE CAME FROM A SOCIALIST society! America "had" one of the most free market capitalistic systems in the world, which brought you these products. It allows people throughout the world to travel in comfort at 40,000 feet, instantly text people around the world, health diagnostic equipment, and....du Internet! Al Gore didn't invent it, and why does it work? The government has NOTHING TO DO WITH IT!

Case closed.
If government gets involved they usually screw it up.
Case being Government healthcare would ultimately end in rationing and less innovation. Think of going to the Doctor and dealing with the DMV. The one thing government does well is WAR, we have one hell of a fighting machine. There is a lot of waste in all government actions, why do better when you are never held accountable or can even be fired.
