[quote=Jannah] Capitalism creates the poverty that continues to kill millions. Also, the fact that corporations overlook safety regulations in their sweat shops ends up with people killed. That's all I'm going to say on this subject though since I know most of this site is never going to agree anyway. [/quote] [b]#1:[/b] Capitalism doesn't create poverty. Human nature does. Long before there was capitalism, there was poverty. There was poverty in the USSR, there is poverty in China and Cuba, there is poverty no matter which side of the spectrum you are on. With finite resources comes the inevitable: Some will have more, some will have less. [b]#2:[/b] Corporations =/= Capitalism. Two people can exchange goods using currency, that's capitalism. Corporatism may be what you're targeting here. As for sweat shops, ask Ukraine all about that. I'm sure they have more than a few stories about what the USSR did to them, and the USSR was extremely left wing. Like it or not, greedy people kill people... Whether that's in the USSR, in a communist state, in the USA, or in a capitalist state. That will never change.
