Total Socialism is not the answer! It helps create corporate monopoly and economic weakness. Corporations will just use socialism to eliminate competition and feed off the economy until it nearly collapses.
You can never focus on only capitalism or only socialism. Capitalism is free market that allows people to multiply their wealth. Socialism redistribution of wealth that feeds off of capitalism. With no capitalist funds, socialism is empty and meaningless. Encouraging everyone to engage in capitalism will create more opportunity for socialism.
the starting Capital, the wealth you initially start out with, is formed by a combination of work together with uncontrolled circumstances that have nothing to do with how much you worked. Capitalism allows you to freely combined resources from your environment to multiply your wealth
Capitalism is only bad when not everyone or not as many people as possible are allowed to do it and be apart of it. Focusing only on socialism would decrease the amount of people engaged in capitalism and create monopolies of trade business that push out other possible competition that want to engage in trade business. When only a small number of people are allowed to engage in capitalism, they are able to take advantage of those who don't, and drain them of their money until the collective economy of that area collapses. Captialism is neccaessary and everyone must be allowed to partake in it, not just some people.
And just because someone is above middle class does not make them the "super-rich" that are robbing your country. Having above-middle-class wealth allows you to create jobs ad grow the economy, allowing more people to better engage in capitalism. Job creators are not the people who have tons of money and just sit on it and do nothing with it but hires servants to fetch them wine. Job creators are hardworking people who help their community to gain wealth and multiply wealth.
And remember, no matter what business you do, owning land is probably one of the most important things. Take advantage of land and resources so you can do some trading business in the first place. Having land will let you do a lot of things.
Any economic method can be used for evil! Becoming Totally socialist is not the answer! Its not the magic pill!
The US government is capitalist and uses socialism as a safety net. Becoming totally socialist and turning into a nation made up of more takers than producers will not help us. Its going to make the national debt even worse.
Big corporations have shipped jobs overseas. We need to get those back. We don't need unrestrained socialism that will leave us broke and weak as a nation.
We should not be feeding trillions of dollars into pointless wars either. If we spent even a small fraction of the money we spend on war, we could do a lot of good for the country. Stop funding terrorist and starting pointless fights.
Hillary Clinton is a career crooked politician! Bernie Sanders is too vague when speaks of using socialism!
I leaning towards voting for Rand Paul. He's pretty good when its comes to economic strengthening and foreign policies.
Don't let the USA become like some places in Europe! Choose your law-makers wisely!!
Power does not lie in the hands of senators and the president, it lies with normal citizens taking action wherever they are needed.
