The verdict is in, and contrary to what socialists say, capitalism, with all its warts, is the preferred economic system to bring the masses out of poverty and to make them productive citizens in our country and in countries around the world. Remember this: Capitalism rewards merit, socialism rewards mediocrity. I mean, socialism talking about equality but it is just a beautiful lie , and capitalism is an ugly truth !
Capitalism is just human nature.
Ferrari make cars. Toyota make cars too. And yet, most people would prefer Ferrari to Toyota if they had the riches. Replace Ferrari with BMW and you'll get the same results.
There is a whole difference between living in an apartment flat and a mansion. According to socialism, they are both living. According to capitalism, apartment dude is not living which is pretty much true when you compare the apartment dude's life to the mansion guy.
Socialism makes people happy on paper but the reality is different. People don't want to get taxed. People don't want to pay for insurances. We are selfish and therefore capitalism suits us the best.
