No, capitalism is a success. Our poorest people live better than most people in the world.
So you would be ok with a Swedish version of capitalism? Including a generous welfare state?
Sure, why not? It would never work here because we do not have the culture of the Swedish. We would be bankrupt in a few years and civil war would happen.
Sweden works because of their culture. We do not have a monoculture in this country. We have too many lazy people who would just try to milk the system as we do now.
Maybe you should learn about capitalism. You just suggested we be more like Sweden, which is even more capitalist than we are.
I do not see a bad side to capitalism. I have done very well under the system. Everyone I know who is reasonably intelligent and willing to work has done well. It is an easy system to be successful under.
To start off, that is an atrocious article. The writer clearly has a lot of bias because they wrote a book called “In defense of capitalism”, and it basis its argument off of a survey from the heritage foundation. Your standards of evidence are at bedrock level.
You just suggested we be more like Sweden
Merely to point out how “capitalism always works”, even by your own standards is wrong.

I imagine you wouldn’t be too convinced if a CCP member told you that.
and capitalism is a great success. Our standard of living is amazing in this country. Sweden is another great example of capitalism working.
No it isn’t. Both systems are failures.

You can’t just look at the parts that are good and ignore the bad parts and claim its a success.

That capitalism works? I would agree with them. That is their economy is based on capitalism for the most part.
Cuba is not. It’s a very different picture when you go to Cuba.
Since you want a Swedish system and they are more capitalist than us, I suppose you would agree captialism is better.
Or do you not want the Swedish system now?
Do you want to have an actual conversation, or not?
I am. You keep contradicting yourself. You hate capitalism but want a system that is even more capitalist.
