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 !

The verdict is in? Capitalism has been shown as the most amazing effective economic system for many decades. As it embraces human nature rather than trying to restructure natural urges.

Remember: the foundation of capitalism as well as any other economy is enforced levy (internal: tax, external: tribute) which is sanctionized on the due date. It is the birth of state structures, surplus production (= economy), property, interest, "money", markets ... the birth of the civilian. This is the contrary of human nature where one lives in communities with solidaric substinence but no individualism.
