I am talking throughout history....Oh and that stuff is a DIRECT impact of capitalism. Not socialism. You can't just blame socialism when capitalism fails like it does so often. Socialism makes sure everyone enjoys a comfortable life,capitalism makes sure the top 1% enjoys a comfortable life and somehow they manage to get an entire political party and its cronies to go along with helping them.

Why do I feel the need to remind you that you voted for those politicians. So you are responsible for helping the evil capitalists.
I came from a socialist country. Yeah, it worked wonder. There's still a place called North Korea where you can see the beautiful and comfortable life people are living in. I highly suggest that you pay a visit and come back tell us how wonderful socialism is.

That's simply not true. Capitalism would have allowed the banks to fail. The things the government has done the last couple of decades has little to nothing to do with capitalism.
If you read my posts you will see where I am not against helping others and have complained a lot about the things the government has done to insulate people from their bad decisions but that has nothing to do with capitalism. In capitalism, when you make a bad mistake you fail.
Blind following of any "ism" is foolishness. Do what works well is my motto. Thats often a blend. I love capitalism, but recognize some of its shortcomings. Same with pretty much anything. Pick what works, that gets the world to where you want it to be.
That's why Greece just elected a Socialist party to FIX the problems? Capitalists and capitalism made the problem.
LOL.."fix". They still have to play the game because they borrowed heavily from the IMF.
They couldn't just "chuck the system" like they campaigned on.
Greece was socialist, not capitalist. And they got into trouble because everyone did live a "comfortable life" only they ran out of money.
